It is worth getting!

G                              C       G
Won't you scratch my itch sweet Annie Rich and welcome me back to town?
                         C              G
Come out on your porch - step into your parlor
        A                        D
and I'll tell you how it all went down
G
Out with the truckers and the kickers and
           C            G                          C
the cowboy angels and a good saloon in every single town

Chorus:
   C           D                 G
And I remember something you once told me
   C                  D              G
and I'll be damned if it did not come true
C                D           G     Bm    Em
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down
   C                D                     G
and they all lead me straight back home to you


        Bm             C                G
'Cause I headed west to grow up with the country
 Em                   D                 G
A cross those prairies with the waves of grain
     Bm                  C      D         G
And I saw my devil, and I saw my deep blue sea
     C                      D               C         D     G
And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennessee

G                                 C
We flew straight across that river bridge last night,
G                                                C
half past two - The switchman waved his lantern goodbye
    G              A             D
and good day as we went rolling through
G                                              C
Billboards and truck stops pass by the Grievous Angel
       G                   C      G
And now I know just what I have to do


Bridge:
       Bm                C               G
And the man on the radio won't leave me alone
  Em                              D
He wants to take my money for something I've never been
G            Bm                  C       D         G
Shown - And I saw my devil, and I saw my deep blue sea
     C                      D               C         D     G
And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennessee


G                               C        G
The news I could bring, I met up with the King On his head, an amphetamine crown
                          C           G
He talked about unbuckling that old Bible belt
        A                      D
and lighted out for some desert town
G
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy
C           G                    C
angels and a good saloon in every town


Chorus:
   C           D                 G
And I remember something you once told me
   C                  D              G
and I'll be damned if it did not come true
C              D            G     Bm    Em
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down
   C                D                     G
and they all lead me straight back home to you

C              D             G       Bm    Em
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down
   C                D                     G
and they all lead me straight back home to you
