CAPO 1
Verse 1
(D)
Sit in that six lane backed up traffic
(A)
Horns are honkin, I've about had it
(G)
Lookin' for that exit sign
(G#) (D)
Gotta get outta here, get it all of my mind
(D)
And like a memory from your grandpa's attic
(A)
A song comes slippin' through the radio static
(Em) (G#)
Changing my mood, a little George Strait 1982
Chorus
D
And it makes me wanna take a back road
(A)
Makes me wanna take the long way home
(G)
Put a little gravel in my travel
(G#)
Unwind, unravel all night long
(D)
Makes me wanna grab my honey
(A)
Tear down some two-lane country, who knows
(Em) (G) (G#)
Get lost and get right with my soul
xxxxx (D)
Makes me wanna take, makes me wanna take a back road.
Verse 2
(D)
I've been cooked up, fried down, about forgotten
(A)
What a field looks like, full of corn and cotton
(G)
If I'm gonna hit a traffic jam,
(G#)
Well it better be a tractor man
(D)
So sick and tired of this interstate system
(A)
I need a curve and wide a twistin
(G)
Dusty path to nowhere
(G#) (D)
With the wind blowing through my baby's hair
REPEAT CHORUS
(D) (A)
Maybe it's the feeling or maybe it's the freedom
(Em) (G)
Maybe it's that shady spot
(G#)
Where we park the truck when the things get hot
(G#)
They were park the truck when the things get hot
REPEAT CHORUS
(Similar chord sequence as the chorus for the outro... haven't nailed it down yet)
Some old back road, get right with my soul
Now all I gotta do is take some old back road
To the shady spot where things get hot ooh
Way down, way down, way down some old back road
