Intro: A

Verse 1:
A
Plowing these fields in the hot summer sun

Over by the gate Lordy, here she comes
         D                                                 A
With a basket full of chicken and a big cold jug of sweet tea

I make a little room and she climbs on up

Open up the throttle and stir a little dust
      D                                  E
Just look at her face, she ain't foolin' me


Chorus:
                        A    E                   A
She thinks my tractors sexy, it really turns her on
                             E                   A
She's always staring at me, while I'm chugging along
      D                  A
She likes the way it's pulling 
             E             A
While we're tilling up the land
       D           A              E
She's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
D               A        E           A          D
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
                        A
She thinks my tractors sexy



Verse 2:
We go back and forth till we run out of light
Take it to the barn, put it up for the night
Climb up in the hay loft, sit and talk with the radio on
She says she's got a dream and I ask what it is
She wants a little farm and a yard full of kids
And one more teeny, weenie ride before I take her home


CHORUS


          E
Well she ain't into cars or pick-up trucks
                                     
But if it runs like a Deere man her eyes light up
            
She thinks my tractors


CHORUS

E                       A
She thinks my tractors sexy
E                       A
She thinks my tractors sexy

Sun tanned toes ticklin' the sand
A                           D       E
Cold drank chillin' in my right hand
A                         D           E
Watchin' you sleep in the evenin' light

Restin' up for a long long night


A                              
Cause when the sun goes down

And sleepin' off the night before, 
               A                      E        A
Cause when the sun goes down we'll be back for more

This old guitar and my dark sun glasses
A                           D            E
This sweet concoction is as smooth as molasses
A                  D          E
Nothin' to do, but breath all day,
           A                        E     A
Until that big moon rises and its time to play

American Kids

G                           D 
Well me and my lady had our first big fight, 
C                                G 
So I drove around till I saw the neon lights,  
C                        G                        C G C 
At a corner bar, and it just seemed right, so I pulled up, 
G                              D 
Not a soul around but the ol' barkeep, 
C                       G 
Down at the end lookin half asleep, 
C                          G                          C G C 
But he walked up and said what'll it be? I said the Good Stuff, 
C                               D       C                    D 
He didn't reach around for the whiskey, He didn't pour me a beer,  
C                        D 
His blue eyes kinda went misty,  
C 
Said you can't find that here, 
 
      G                              D 
Cause it's the first long kiss on a second date 
C                            G 
Mamma's all worried when you get home late 
     C                        G 
And droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate,  
C           G                    C     D 
Cause your hands are shaking so much 
   G                         D 
It's the way she looks with rice in her hair 
C                        G 
Eatin burnt suppers the whole first year 
C                          G                 C G C 
And askin for seconds, to keep her from tearin up, 
     D               G  D C G C 
Yeah man that's the Good Stuff 
 
G                                D 
He grabbed a carton of milk and poured a glass 
C                       G 
I smiled and said I'll have some of that 
C                              G                    C G C 
We sat there and talked as an hour passed like ol' friends 
G                                     D 
Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare 
C                               G     
Was a pretty girl with bouffant hair 
        C                  G                         C G C 
He said that's my Bonnie, takin bout a year after we wed 
        C                        D               C                   D 
He said spent five years in the bottle when the cancer took her from me 
     C                          D 
I've been sober for three years now,  
     C              G                 C     D 
Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey was the 
 
     G                    D 
The sight of her holdn my baby girl 
     C                   G              
The way she adored that string of pearls  
   C                         G 
I gave her the day that our youngest boy Earl  
C                 G        C    D 
Married his high school love 
G                             D 
And it's a new T-shirt sayin I'm a Grand Pa 
C                                 G 
Being right there as our time got small 
    C                           G                C G C 
And holding her hand, when the good lord called her up 
     D               G D C G C 
Yeah man that's the Good Stuff 
 
G D C G C 
 
        D                         G 
He said when you get home she'll start to cry 
      D                      G 
When she says I'm sorry, say so am I 
     G    D           C      D       C 
And look into those eyes so deep in love  
     D 
And drink it up 
       G               D   C G C 
Cause that's the Good Stuff 
 G          D       C G C 
That's the Good Stuff

Verse 1
D               A  
I turned on the evening news
G             A
Saw a old man being interviewed
D          A               G
Turning a hundred and two today
D                A
Asked him what's the secret to life
G            A 
He looked up from his old pipe
D           A               G
Laughed and said "All I can say is."

Chorus

Don't blink
A                     G                     A             
Just like that you're six years old and you take a nap and you
D                  A                                          
Wake up and you're twenty-five and 
     G                                   D
your high school sweetheart becomes your wife

D            A                  G                    A
Turning into moms and dads next thing you know your "better half"

Of fifty years is there in bed

Verse 2
D               A                 G                 A  
I was glued to my tv when it looked like he looked at me and said

You can't flip it over and start again
D                       A                      G 
Take every breathe God gives you for what it's worth

With a cooler and a bong

Maybe I could've been a pirate

Maybe in my next life that's what I'll be

French Kissing Life

G           D       A           D
Tired of my beeper, tired of my phone
G             D         A         D
Tired of this tired old tie I got on
G            D       A            D
Sick of this traffic jam that I'm in,
   G           D       A           D
We all get sick of it all now and then.
          G                           A
When I've had it up to here I go down there.

   G        D                A           D
To guitars, tiki bars, and a whole lotta love,
           G                A             D       
Mangos and Marley you know, fit me like a glove.
                G                     A         D
Sixth gear with nowhere to steer when enough is enough,
G             Em               G     A     D    
It's guitars, tiki bars, and a whole lotta love.

G D A D G D A D (x 2)

  G           D           A          D
I feel like a fish jerked out of the sea,
     G         D           A            D
Or a bird in a cage that's never seen a key,
G            D           A            D
Sick of this grind and I think that I ought
   G          D          A        D
To bring this grind to a grinding hault.
         G                               A
Now I've had it up to here let's go down there.

Sixth gear with nowhere to steer when enough is enough,

It's guitars, tiki bars, and a whole lotta love.

Just Dont Happen Twice solo

  G
There's a blue rocking chair,
  C
sittin in the sand,
  G
weathered by the storms,
  D
and the well oiled hands,
  G
It sways back and forth,
  C
with the help of the wind,
  Am
and it seems to always be there,
  D  
like an old trusted friend
 
(Chorus)

  C
I've read alot of books
  D
wrote a few songs
  G
looked at my life, where it's going
  G
where it's gone,
  C
I've seen the world, through a bus winshield,
  D
But nothing compares
  C                        D
To the way that I see it, to the way that I see it,
  C                              D
To the way that I see it when I sit,
 (stop)                 G  C  D  G
In that old blue chair

Verse 2

  G
From that chair I've caught,
  C
a few fish and some rays,
  G
and I've watched boats sail,
                        D
In and out of cinnamon bays,
  G
I've let go of a lover,
  C
who took a piece of my heart,
  Am
and prayed many times for forgiveness,
  D
and a brand new start

(Repeat Chorus)

  C
That chair was by bed one New Year's night,
  G
When I passed out from too much Cruzan and diet,
  C                                          D
and I woke up to a hunderd mosquito bites I swear
  C                        D
got 'em all sittin right there, 
(stop)              G C D  G
In that old blue chair

 G
There's a blue rocking chair
 C
Sittin in the sand
 D                        C
weathered by the storms and
 (stop)           G C D  G
well oiled hands

Old Blue Chair

D
Sunny days seem to hurt the most
D
I wear the pain like a heavy coat
D                       G
I feel you everywhere I go
D
I see your smile, I see your face
D
I hear you laughin' in the rain
D                           G
Still can't believe you're gone.


G
It ain't fair you died too young
G
Like a story that had just begun
D                              G
But death tore the pages all away
G
God knows how I miss you
G
All the hell that I been through
D
Just knowin' no one could take your 
G
place
G
Sometimes I wonder
A                D
Who you'd be today.


D
Would you see the world, would you chase your dreams
D
Settle down with a family
D                                                                                           
I wonder what would you name
your 
G
babies
D
Somedays the sky's so blue
D
I feel like I can talk to you
D                          G
And I know it might sound crazy.



G
It ain't fair you died too young
G
Like a story that had just begun
D                              G            
But death tore the pages all away
G
God knows how I miss you
G
All the hell that I been through
D                                                                  
Just knowin' no one could take your 
G
place
G
Sometimes I wonder
A             D
Who you'd be today.


G      B      G        D
Today, today, today
G      B      G        D
Today, today, today.


D
Sunny days seem to hurt the most
D
I wear the pain like a heavy coat
D                            G
The only thing that gives me hope        
A                             D 
Is I know I'll see you again someday
G               G             D
Someday, someday...

Who You'd Be Today

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day

Bridge:

I wheel my bike off the train,

Up the North Trade Road,

Look for you on Marley Lane

In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
