5 6 -4 5 4 4 -3 4 -4

5 5 5 -4 4 -4 4
I gave up the fast lane
4 4 -5 -5 5 -4 5 -4
For a black top county road
6 6 6 6 -6 6 5 4
Just burned out on all that talk
4 -4 -4 -4 4 4 -3
About the mother load

5. 5 -4 4 -4 4
I’d trade it for a somber
4 4 -5 -5 5 -4 5 -4
A bigger piece of sky
6 6 6 6 -6 6 6 5
When I miss the good ole days
-4 -4 5 -4 4
I can’t imagine why

-6 -6 6 -6 -5
Still I get restless
-6 6 6 6 5
Drive into town
6 6 5 5 -4
Cruise once down Main Street
6 6 -5 5 5
And turn back around

5 -6 -6 6 -6 -5
It’s crazy but God knows
-6 -6 -6 6 6 5
I don’t act my age
6 6 -6 6 5 5 -4
Like an old desperado
-4 5 5 5 -4 5 4
Who paints the town beige

Down along the river
Pass the swimming hole
You can find your peace of mind
With just a fishing pole

You can walk the river
For miles and miles on end
Never stop and leave it in
That dream around the bend

Still I get restles
Drive into town
My radio playin
My window rolled down

It’s crazy but God knows
I don’t act my age
Like an old desperado
Who paints the town beige

Deep down in the winter
Time slows to a crawl
There’s really nothing much to do
Until the first spring thaws

It’s then I get to thinking
I must’ve gone insane
Memories roll through my mind
Like a long slow railroad train

Still I get restless
Drive into town
Watch the world through a windshield
As it all comes unwound

It’s crazy but God knows
I don’t act my age
Like those old desperadoes
Who paints the town beige

I gave up the fast lane
