artist : ryan bingham and the dead horses
album : roadhouse sun
song : country roads
verse 1 :
C G F
do you really think you know
F G C
exactly where i stand
C G F
or did i just let you down
F G C
you found out i was just a poor man
C G F
i might have took a few wrong turns
F G C
down a few wrong roads
C G F
wound up in a few wrong towns
F G C
where nobody cares or goes
chorus :
C G F
it ain’t that i can’t see
C G F
or find my way home
C G F
it’s just that i like to breath
out on country roads
C G F F G C
verse 2 :
i’ve never been much on down town
or cared for a place to stay
i know i’ll never wear no crown
i’ll never be a king of slaves
wash my hands in the rain
spend my time with the whiskey
i never give up on change
or give a damn if you’ll ever miss me
repeat chorus
verse 3 :
i know i never stick around
never lose track of time
or worry about a little old town
what i might have left behind
i just let the sun shine down
i just let them big wheels roll
keep on running around
on big ol’ country roads
repeat chorus
notes : verses 2 & 3 have the same C G F , F G C chord progression as verse 1 . after each
line of the chorus you can fingerpick on the F , just listen to the song . oh , and adding
some harmonica wouldn’t suck either .
