G  D  G

Verse 1:
G                               D
Sittin' here, thinkin' 'bout the fix I'm in
        F                           C
Ain't no time to write a line, is it ever gonna end?
G                            D
Spent my whole mornin' at the corner store
      F                             C
Just a-smokin' and a-jokin' with the kid next door
G                           D
Gettin' aggravated 'cause my mind's gone dead
          F                                 C                    Bb  Am  D  G
Think I'll have a little drink and then just jump right into bed

Verse 2:
G                          D
Ridin' down the street in a big ol' Cadillac
        F                       C
Seems to me that yesterday is at least a mile back
G                       D
Havin' such a good time, havin' so much fun
      F                                C
Just a-dancin' and a-drinkin', probably never get done
G                        D
Then all at once I hear a ringin' in my ears
        F                               C                 Bb  Am  D  G
Guess it must've been a dream 'cause I'm still right here

Chorus:
Em                   C
Come one day, I'll be leavin' this old country town
Em                   C               D
Come one day, I'll be headin' for the city
F                                 C
Havin' fun and drinkin' some, everything's gonna work out fine
G                            C            D
One day I'll come back again, if I get the time

Verse 3:
G                       D
Eatin' maple candy underneath the maple tree
      F                             C
Just a-sittin' in the shade thinkin' what I wanna be
G                       D
Maybe some day I'll be a movie star
F                       C
Kissin' pretty girls and drivin' fancy cars
G                     D
Then everybody's gonna be so proud of me
        F                  C                       Bb  Am  D  G
Say they knew it all along, just you wait and see

Verse 4:
G                               D
Sittin' here, thinkin' 'bout the fix I'm in
        F                           C
Ain't no time to write a line, is it ever gonna end?
G                            D
Spent my whole mornin' at the corner store
      F                             C
Just a-smokin' and a-jokin' with the kid next door
G                           D
Gettin' aggravated 'cause my mind's gone dead
          F                                 C                    Bb  Am  D  G
Think I'll have a little drink and then just jump right into bed
