[Intro]

C Bb F
[Verse]
C Bb
My granddaddy was a trucker, took his fair share of bumpers
F C
Chasing white lines for a dollar, but he never let us down
C Bb
Now I’m a different breed of drifter, I do my kind of drifting
F C
With a guitar and a bottle and I play it good and loud
C Bb
I cut tail and run too often to a bar down in Austin
G C
If I forget the words, you can blame it on the Crown
[Chorus]
F C
But you can bet I know about a lonesome road
F G
You can bet I know about a heavy load
C
They call it playing for a living
Bb
But the truth is it isn’t
F C
As easy as a writing a song
C
Tell my babies I love 'em
G C Bb F
But their daddy ain’t never coming home
[Verse]
C Bb
But I still remember hearing the roaring of the engine
F C
Rolling in the drive after one long run
C Bb
And he worked to sell the day, but on his deathbed
F C
He looked at me and said, the job ain’t done
C Bb
And I seen all I can see, just the guitar and me
F C
Chasing every honky-tonk in the setting sun
[Chorus]
F C
But you can bet I know about a lonesome road
F G
You can bet I know about a heavy load
C
They call it playing for a living
Bb
But the truth is it isn’t
F C
As easy as a writing a song
C
Tell my babies I love 'em
G C Bb F
But their daddy ain’t never coming home
[Instrumental/Solo]

[Chorus]
F C
You can bet I know about a lonesome road

You can bet I know about a heavy load
C
They call it playing for a living
Bb
But the truth is it isn’t
F C
As easy as a writing a song
C
Tell my babies I love 'em

But their daddy ain’t never coming home

Tell my babies I love 'em

But their daddy ain’t never coming home
