Verse 1:
A G
Well I come from a little bitty, homegrown small town,
C D
Smoky Mountains, nice place to hang around.
A G
Moonshine, that's where they make it,
D
Put it in a jug, makes you wanna get naked.
A G
But I jumped on a greyhound bus one night
C D
And took it all the way to the end of the line.
A G
Stepped down in the sun, when my feet hit the sand
D
What a long strange trip
Chorus:
A G D
I spent my whole life running around (running around)
A G D
Still let the wind kinda blow me around
A G
Well I dropped a note in a bottle
D
To a long-legged model
A G
And I traded it in for a whole 'nother world
D
A pirate flag and an island girl
Intro
Verse 2:
A G
Well my friends back home think I've gone and lost my mind
C D
Take a sip of rum and you really would know why
A G
Jolly Roger flying on the picnic table
D
Blender in the kitchen, willin' and able
A G
Don't know what makes you say "What the hell"
C D
But when the salt air catches a hold of that sail
A G
Something 'bout her makes you just wanna dance
D
And she loves to dance
Chorus:
A G D
I spent my whole life running around (running around)
A G D
Still let the wind kinda blow me around
A G
Well I dropped a note in a bottle
D
To a long-legged model
A G
And I traded it in for a whole 'nother world

I remember back home 'neath the big ol' moon
