Key: C

🎸 Intro: 

C G C



🎸 Verse :
        C                          F
Well he carries a big knife in his pocket
         C                              G
That's because he thinks the worlds too small
       C                            F
And he knows that he really likes a livin'
           C               G                 C
Cause he's looking for the best time of them all

🎸 Chorus: 
                         F                  C
He's got his head in the clouds or a little above it
            G                              C
He can take something and make nothing out of it
                          F                           C
He's got his head full of dreams and a pocket full of sand
                   G                 C
Brother that's the life of the Texas man

🎸 Verse :
C                         F
Look out folks, he's on a big road
       C                        G
And if he can't go wild he just won't go
          C                                     F
Well he's crippled blind and crazy he's got his back against the wall
           C                  G                  C
'Cause the river so wide, and man his boat is so small

🎸 Chorus: 
                         F                  C
He's got his head in the clouds or a little above it
            G                              C
He can take something and make nothing out of it
                          F                           C
He's got his head full of dreams and a pocket full of sand
                   G                 C
Brother that's the life of the Texas man

🎸 Instrumental: 
C G C



🎸 Verse :
        C                                 F
You can bet he'd gonna leave no turned unstoned
      C                      G
As he rambles down his road alone
        C                               F
I got a face like a piece of granite, a life that's kinda rough
C               G          C
One's too many, 20 ain't enough

🎸 Chorus: 
                         F                   C
He's got his head in the clouds or a little above it
            G                              C
He can take something and make nothing out of it
                  F                            C
He's damned if he don't, and he's damned if he do
                        G                          C
And brother that's what makes him just like me and you
               G                         C   G C
Brother that's make him just like me and you
