Eleven Hundred Springs

Eleven Hundred Springs - Long Haired, Tattooed, Hippy Freaks guitar chord

D

This happens every time we step on stage,

D A

They look at us like we have lost our minds,

D G

Then we go and break into that San Antonio Rose,

D A D

And they can't believe they're havin a good time,

D

Every time we hit a truck stop on the road,

D A

They say you boys you must be in a band,

D G

What kind of music do you play and we say country,

D A D

And there's that look like they don't understand,

They call us long haired, tattooed, hippie freaks,

G

You know they ain't all wrong,

D

You'd think they never saw a bad outlaw,

E A

Singin a country song,

D

But if they'd close their eyes and open their ears,

G

And let the music speak,

D

They'd hear good old country music,

D A D

Not just long haired, tattooed freaks

D

So it's been some time since I cut this long-assed hair,

D A

And my ragged looks don't fit in with this place,

D G

Tattoo parlors, ain't we all spent time in there,

D A D

We've got the scars that time just can't erase,

D

But does anyone remember Johnny Paycheck,

D A

Or Willie, Waylon, or the late and great Doug Sahm,

D G

Yeah, all them clean cut boys they got in Nashville,

D A D

Don't know a damn thing about where we're comin from.

Repeat Chorus:

I'm still the only hell my mama ever raised
