G Em C D
[Verse 1]
G Em C D G Em C D
Last night I sat out on the boat dock and smoked a big cigar.
G Em C D G Em C D
Let my mind drift back along the road of life I've traveled down so far.
C D G G/F# Em
Started as a dreamer with a suitcase in hand,
C D G G/F# Em
a guitar on my back without a care or a plan,
C G/B Am7 C/D G Em C D
a gypsy boy hitchhiking down the road, ah, here I go.
[Verse 2]
G Em C D G Em C D
I fell in love at nineteen and I thought the world lay there in her eyes
G Em C D G Em C D
but the life I talked about was not the kind that she had in mind.
C D G G/F# Em
I was just a skinny kid who played the guitar,
C D G G/F# Em
one day I looked up and she went by in a car,
C G/B Am7 C/D
driven by some guy I didn't know I let 'er [Interlude] go.
[Interlude]
G Em C D
G Em C D
[Verse 3]
G Em C D G Em C D
We headed down to New Orleans, never been to that locale,
G Em C D G Em C D
found some work bartending and I started running with some pals.
C D G G/F# Em
We had guitars and followed babe Stovall around,
C D G G/F# Em
we met some Cajun girls who had just drove into town.
C G/B Am7 C/D G Em C D
They said that they were headed for the coast, we all said let's all go.
[Verse 4]
G Em C D G Em C D
We were on life's adventure now, rolling cross the great southwest,
G Em C D G Em C D
the first time I saw Texas I thought, man, this must be the best.
C D G G/F# Em
When I got to LA I just turned it around,
C D G G/F# Em
their heads are up among the stars, there's cracks in the ground;
C G/B Am7 C/D
I really couldn't care less if it blows, let 'er [Interlude] go.
[Interlude]
G Em C D
G Em C D
[Verse 5]
G Em C D G Em C D
When I got back to Texas I thought, man, I finally found my place,
G Em C D G Em C D
everybody is so friendly and they always have a pleasant face.
C D G G/F# Em
The women all are pretty with a wink in their eye,
C D G G/F# Em
the cowboys at the bar are all so polite and shy
C G/B C/D
except when they rode the bulls at the rodeo; they say let 'er [Interlude] go.
[Interlude]
G Em C D
G Em C D
[Verse 6]
G Em C D G Em C D
Well, I put a band together and we sat around and played songs that I like.
G Em C D G Em C D
We sat around and worked them up 'till I thought we played them all just right.
C D G G/F# Em
The first gig that we ever played I stayed out too long,
C D G G/F# Em
I went out and partied and we stayed up 'till dawn.
C G/B Am7 C/D
The next night at the club I didn't show; the bartender said: hey, let 'em [Interlude] go.
[Interlude]
G Em C D
G Em C D
[Verse 7]
G Em C D G Em C D
I got lucky with some songs and they were hits on the radio;
G Em C D G Em C D
promoters said they needed some gonzo stuff on the country package show.
C D G G/F# Em
The record company said that they were caught by surprise,
C D G G/F# Em
they said you guys are really hard to categorize.
C G/B Am7 C/D
I don't think that they ever caught our show, they just let us [Interlude] go.
[Interlude]
G Em C D
G Em C D
[Verse 8]
G Em C D G Em C D
Well, I've traveled round the world and sang my songs for people that I've met,
G Em C D G Em C D
I've made a lot of people smile and, all in all, I still have no regrets.
C D G G/F# Em
I have got a family that I love and they love me too,
C D G G/F# Em
I have a band I travel with 'cause that's what we do.
C G/B Am7 C/D
And I see how quickly all the years have flown; let 'em [Interlude] go
[Interlude]

[Verse 9]
G Em C D G Em C D
Last night I sat out on the boat dock and smoked a big cigar
G Em C D G Em C D
and let my mind drift back along the road of life I've traveled down so far.
C D G G/F# Em
I thought of all the places I have been in my life
C D G G/F# Em
and all the places that I have to see 'fore I die.
C G/B Am7 C/D
I looked over at the boat tied to the dock I said got on and let 'er [Outro] go.
