Drop D Tuning
Some of the weird chords at the end of the
chorus are just a long walkdown from the Cadd9
to the D, but here they are:
G/B - x20033
Dsus4/A - x00033
Dsus4/F - 300033
D
The backroads of this county
Cadd9
Cross like the laces on my boots
G/B D
And I've been running them down since I was able to
D
I left home at nineteen
Cadd9
Swore I was never goin back
G/B D
Nights like this I wish thats where I was at
CHORUS:
Cadd9
Slow pokin' down a blacktop
D
Cuttin tires on a white rock
Cadd9
There's a party on a dead end road
D
We're just hopin that the cops dont show
Cadd9
Somebody is lookin for a fight
D
It's gonna be that kind of night
Cadd9 G/B
When I get too far from home
D Cadd9 G/B Dsus4/A Dsus4/F D
I go find me a back road
Well I remember the summer
That I turned sixteen
I made out with a girl in the back of her hatchback Chevrolet
And I drank my first beer
On the Louisiana state line
My first time to see the other side
CHORUS (No walkdown at the end)
Cadd9
Well I heard them tell me
D
Son don't forget where you came from
Cadd9
And I never have
D
And I still like to beat that drum
Cadd9
From the river bottoms
D
To the tall pine trees
A
It forever will be
A
Right here inside of me
CHORUS
