I was a  walkin talkin somethin to prove didn't care about nothin at all, 
D        D/C#    D/B      D/A       G     A      D 
Reelin in the streets throwin bottles at the wall, 
D                                                                 G 
We played rockabilly music til all hours of the night, 
D          D/C#    D/B     D/A      G              A      D       
We'd wind up in the parkin lot in some great big fight, 
G                                          D             G                 D 
When there weren't no money in it and everything was new, 
G                               D                                         A  
We'd drive across the country lookin for somethin to do, 
D                                                                                    G 
And you couldn't tell us nothin. We had it all figured out for sure, 
D                   D/C#         D/B            D/A               G            A      D 
And the older cats would shake their heads. They'd seen our kind before, 

D G D But it was good times hard livin back then, D A I wonder could I do those things again, D G D G And never give a second thought to if it was a sin, D A D Good times hard livin back then,
Verse: D G I was a walkin talkin somethin to prove just playin rock and roll, D D/C# D/B D/A G A D Lovin every minute spinnin out of control, D G Ridin on that midnight rail tryin to have too much fun, D D/C# D/B D/A G A D Probably should've gone to jail for some of the things we done, G D G D We'd turn on ZZ Top and roll on to another town, G D A We wore that sucker out til the whole thing come unwound, D G And you couldn't tell us nothin we had it all figured out for sure, D D/C# D/B D/A G A D But some people that I knew back then won't talk to me no more, Repeat Chorus: Verse: D G I'm a walkin talkin somethin to prove but I'm tryin not to fall, D D/C# D/B D/A G A D Cause some funerals I've been to played like writing on the wall, D G And now it seems I've come full circle still tryin to make a stand, D D/C# D/B D/A G A D Ridin five up in a pick up truck playin in a honkytonk band, G D G D And though the words may be different it's still the same old song, G D A Figure out where you wanna be and make it up as you go along, D G And you still can't tell us nothin we've got it all figured out fo sure. D D/C# D/B D/A G A D Shakin our heads at each other we've been down this road before, Repeat Chorus: Refrain: D G I'm a walkin talkin somethin to prove but I'm tryin not to fall, D D/C# D/B D/A G A D And if I think about it now and then ain't too much changed at all
