INTRO
A
 
VERSE
A
Well this is a song about a travelling man who knows just what he wants
A
He thinks he's got it all figured out and tries not to take too much
A                                                                                                    A D A E A
He's spent a lot of time tryin' this and that and he knows just what he likes and he ain't going back
A
Well I've got spiders in my bed and I've got slugs up on the wall
D                                      A                E
There's a black bee a flying round outside of my back door
A                                        D                        A
I'm weather worn my shirt is torn I got dirt comin' out my ears From being
E                A
gone all these years
                                                              D
Well one half of my head keeps singing songs of years of old While the
                             A          E
other sheds its skin on aggregates of minerals
A                                             D
I'm a cask of oak, I'm whiskey soaked, been running down the line
 
A                        E                A
Awe pour me another one honey I'm doin' fine
 
CHORUS
D        A         E   A           D        A      E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D          A            E        A    D        A         E
Kicking up dirt while I'm on the run, double whiskey no ice Well
D           A     E   A         D        A        E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D          A       E           A            D       E          A
A pretty lady and sing along songs, it'll take me through the night
 
 
VERSE
Well I got sand in my shoes and I got dirt between my toes
D                                        A             E
There's calm before the storm I hear or so the story goes
A
I'm dancing in it now, got a sweaty brow, I can feel it coursing through my
D
veins
A                      E                      A
Awe look out baby I'm comin' through when it rains
 
 
CHORUS
D        A         E   A           D        A      E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D          A            E        A    D        A         E
Kicking up dirt while I'm on the run, double whiskey no ice Well
D           A     E   A         D        A        E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D          A       E           A            D       E          A
A pretty lady and sing along songs, it'll take me through the night
 
 
SOLO
 
Bm            C#m    A      E    D
And I've been gone for so very long
       Bm          C#m    A      E      D
Baby don't think twice, I know we'll be alright
A               E             D
I've got an absence without leave
                  A      E      D
I've got an ace tucked up my sleeve
      A           E            D        A
With sticks and stones we'll take the throne
D       E       A
And make some history
 
CHORUS
 
D        A         E   A           D        A      E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D          A            E        A    D        A         E
Kicking up dirt while I'm on the run, double whiskey no ice Well
D           A     E   A         D        A        E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D          A       E           A            D       E          A
A pretty lady and sing along songs, it'll take me through the night
