[Intro]
Am F C G
[Verse 1]
Am
My grandpa was a carpenter
F
My daddy taught school
C
My mamma she’s an angel
G
And raised up a fool
Am
My brother is preacher
F
And he tells folk right from wrong
C
And he’s told me a time or two
G
And I put it in a song
[Chorus]
Am
All I know is where I’m headed
F
There’s a lost and there’s a found
C
And I ain’t sure if I believe it
G
But I recognize the sound
Am
There’s some folks up there
F
Been calling me since I was just a child
C
Sayin don’t pick up that six string boy
G
It’s bound to drive you wild
[Instrumental]
Am F C G
[Verse 2]
Am
Well the road has been my home
F
Since I was 19 years old
C
And it’s taken me through
G
Darkened trails and stories never told
Am
And it’s hung me out to dry
F
So many times boys I lost count
C
But never made sure that
G
An Okie boy stays down
[Chorus]
Am
All I know is where I’m headed
F
There’s a lost and there’s a found
C
And I ain’t sure if I believe it
G
But I recognize the sound
Am
There’s some folks up there
F
Been calling me since I was just a child
C
Sayin don’t pick up that six string boy
G
It’s bound to drive you wild
[Instrumental]
Am F C G
[Verse 3]
Am*
Been a lover of cold woman
F*
And a leaver of them all
C*
And I build em up
G*
With so much love just to watch them fall
[Verse 4]
Am
But the troubles been just
F
Finding one who’s there
To hold me down
C
But I can’t stay for long
G
I’ve got a show in another town
[Chorus]
Am
All I know is where I’m headed
F
There’s a lost and there’s a found
C
And I ain’t sure if I believe it
G
But I recognize the sound
Am
There’s some folks up there
F
Been calling me since I was just a child
C
Sayin don’t pick up that six string boy
G Am F C G Am*
It’s bound to drive you bound to drive you wild
