🎸 Intro: C D G Cadd9 G Em 🎸 Verse 1: G Outside there’s a rusty pickup Cadd9 Underneath a shed D Mockingbird’s nest in the tailpipe Cadd9 D Empty feed sack in the bed G They took away my keys Cadd9 Sayin’ I’m too old to drive D It’s like they’re tryin’ to bury me Cadd9 D While I’m still alive 🎸 Chorus: G I always wanted a son Cadd9 I always wanted a woodshed D I always wanted to ride on an open range G D G And learn how to fly a plane, but I guess even pictures we never take Cadd9 Memories we’ll never make still fade D I never did all I wanted to do but I always wanted to G Cadd9
🎸 Verse 2: G They talk like I can’t hear ’em Cadd9 When they have to change my sheets D They’re getting tired and angry Cadd9 D ‘Cause I won’t accept defeat G Uncle Frank lived to be a hundred Cadd9 Hell I’m only ninety five D I ain’t raising no white flag Cadd9 D While I’m still alive 🎸 Chorus: G I always wanted a son Cadd9 I always wanted a woodshed D I always wanted to ride on an open range G D G And learn how to fly a plane, but I guess even pictures we never take Cadd9 Memories we’ll never make still fade D G I never did all I wanted to do but I always wanted to G Cadd9 D 🎸 Verse 3: G My Marie showed up this morning Cadd9 Floatin’ right above that chair D She smiled the sweetest smile at me G As she hovered in the air G When that fever stole her from me Cadd9 I was twenty seven, she was just twenty five D I never dreamed I’d see my angel again Cadd9 D While I’m still alive 🎸 Chorus: G I always wanted a son Cadd9 I always wanted a woodshed D I always wanted to ride on an open range G D G And learn how to fly a plane, but I guess even pictures we never take Cadd9 Memories we’ll never make still fade D I never did all I wanted to do but I always wanted to G Cadd9 D 🎸 Outro: D I never did all I wanted to do but I always want d to G Cadd9 G Em G
