Guitar Town(Chords)

	        
Verse 

E 
Hey sweet daddy are you ready for me 
                                             A 
It's your good rockin' mamma down from Tennessee 
          B 
Well I'm just outta Austin bound for San Antone 
         A 
With the radio blastin' and the bird dog on 
           E 
There's a speed trap up ahead South of town 
                                   A 
But no local yokel's gonna shut me down 
       B 
Cause me and the boys got this rig unwound 
          A                                     E    A  B  A  B  E 
And we've come a thousand miles from the guitar town 
E 
Nothin' ever happened round my home town 
                                   A 
And I ain't the kind to just hang around 
      B 
But I heard someone callin' my name one day 
      A 
And I followed that voice down the lost highway 
E 
Everybody told me you can't get far 
E                A 
on $37 and a Jap guitar 
        B 
Now I'm smokin into Texas with the hammer down 
     A                                     E   A B   A   B  E 
And a rockin' little combo from the guitar town 
B 
Hey pretty baby don't you know it ain't my fault 
A                            E 
Love to hear the steel belts hummin on the asphalt 
B 
Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop 
A                                          B 
Stumble in the restaurant, wonderin' why I don't stop 
E 
Well I gptta keep rockin while I still can 
                                 A 
Got a two-pack habit and a motel tan 
        B 
When my boots hit the boards it's a brand new hand 
       A 
put my back to the risers and make my stand 
E 
Hey pretty baby won't you hold me tight 
E                                        A 
I'm loadin' up and rollin' out of here tonight 
B 
One of these days I'm gonna settle down 
         A                                    E  A B  A  B  E 
And I'll take you back with me to the guitar town
