[Intro]
A D A G A
[Verse 1]
A
I had twenty-one miles of road to go
E
And fifty-four miles of dirt
D E
There was a cold steel gleam
A
In the night
A
I was trucking along
Down interstate five
E
Looking for the turn
D
When something snapped
E A
And I suddenly changed my mind
[Chorus]
F#m
I said bye bye bye
Bm
Oh, I finally took a stand
D
Then for the very first time
E
I felt like a man
[Verse 2]
A
So I headed on down to Mexico
E
I was never going back to work
D
Yes I had enough cash
E A
To last me there for years
A
And then I cabled my folks
I said call my boss
E
And you can tell him
Where I left the truck
D
And then I went out and stocked up
E A
On enchiladas and beer
[Chorus]
F#m
I said bye bye bye
Bm
Oh, I finally took a stand
D
Then for the very first time
E
I felt like a man, like a man man man man
[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
A
Well now that all happened back in 1961
E
And I never went back to work
D E
And then in 1964 I started living
A
Off the land
A
And the people back home
Still talk about me
E
Just running off without a word
D
But me and the beer
E
And the Mexican sunshine
D E A
We don't give a damn!
[Chorus]
A
Whoah no no no
F#m
I said bye bye bye
Bm
Oh, I finally took a stand
D
Then for the very first time
E
I felt like a man, a free man
