Verse 1
   D
The back roads of this county
  Cadd9
Cross like the laces on my boots
  G
And I’ve been running ‘em down
  D
Since I was able to
  D
I left home at nineteen,
  Cadd9
And swore I was never coming back
  G
Nights like this I sure wish
  D
That’s where I was at.

Chorus
Cadd9                                      D
Slow pokin’ down a blacktop, cuttin’ tires on the white rock
  Cadd9
There’s a party on a dead end road
  D
We’re just hopin’ that the cops don’t show
  Cadd9
Somebody is looking for a fight
  D
It’s gonna be that kind of night
  G
When I get too far from home
  D
I go find me a back road.

Cadd9,?,G,D
Verse 2
  D                                      Cadd9
I remember the summer, I turned sixteen
   G
I made out with a girl in the back of her hatchback Chevrolet
  D                                        Cadd9
And I drank my first beer, on the Louisiana state line
  G
My first night to see the other side

Chorus

Verse 3
D?
I heard ‘em tell me, son don’t forget where you come from

And I never have, and I still like to beat that drum

From the river bottoms, to the tall pine trees

It will be forever right here inside of me

Chorus

Slow pokin’ down a blacktop, cuttin’ tires on the white rock

There’s a party on a dead end road

We’re just hopin’ that the cops don’t show

Somebody is looking for a fight

It’s gonna be that kind of night

When I get too far from home

I go find me a back road.
