Capo 2nd fret
[Intro]
D G Bm A G
D G Bm A G
[Verse 1]
D G
I'd park my Chevy, board a westbound plane
Bm A G
Knock on a few doors back where I came
D G
Spin an old record out track by track
Bm G
It's been a while since I heard a song like that
D G
Me and my buddies go drinkin' 'til dawn
Bm A G
And catch up on laughin' since I been gone
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
Let a little bit of old make me feel brand new
Bm G
Well, if I had a week with nothin' to do
[Chorus]
Bm G D A
'Cause a day just ain't enough, couldn't even touch the time it takes
Bm G D A
To fill me up with what I need, somewhere I'm from, but I'm on the run
G
With no time to lose
A D
Well, if I had a week with nothin' to do
[Verse 2]
D G
I'd blow smoke rings and watch 'em disappear
Bm A G
Into three hunded acres of heifers and steers
D G
Do some farm pond fishin' with my Uncle Joe
Bm A G
And listen to the stories that never get old
D G
I'd take a break from the red lights and the concrete
Bm G
Put my old Red Wings back on my feet
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
Let a little bit of old make me feel brand new
Bm G
Well, if I had a week with nothin' to do
[Chorus]
Bm G D A
'Cause a day just ain't enough, couldn't even touch the time it takes
Bm G D A
To fill me up with what I need, somewhere I'm from, but I'm on the run
G
With no time to lose
A D
Well, if I had a week with nothin' to do
[Outro]
D G
I'd stand on the porch and tell 'em all goodbye
Bm A G
Remind 'em all that I'm doin' alright
D G
And holler as I leave 'til my lungs turn blue
Bm A G
Well, if I had a week with nothin' to do
