I said, "That thing's seen better days,

Daddy, you should toss it"
E B F#
And he said "Darlin I can’t"
CHORUS:
E B F# B
This thing is two-thousand bonfires, I hitchhiked to Boulder
E B F#
It's kept a million raindrops off your mama's shoulders
E B F# B

It's been a bed for a hound-dog, a picnic blanket

From a punk who tried to take it from me
E B F# B
Seen Willie Nelson play four or five states
E F#

E B F#
With his arms wrapped around me in that old

OUTRO:

It ain't much to look at, but he let me have it
E B F#
So I could feel his arms around me in that old
