Verse 1:
E
Well that label man said son now can you sing a little bit more clear
E
Your voice might be too genuine and your song's a little too sincere
E A7 E
Can you sing a little more about outlaws and the way things used to be
E (once) B7 (once) (fill 1)
He told me you just worry about writing them songs leaving everything else to me
Verse 2:
E
Daddy was a Highwayman but he never wrote any old country songs
E
Papaw never stayed out raising hell til the break of dawn
E A7 E
But he raised a proud coal miners daughter and I'm proud to be her son
E (once) B7 (once) (fill 2)
She told me boy I don't care if you hit it big, cause you’re already #1
Chorus:
A7 E
That's the way it goes in this day & age
E B7
You ain't gotta read between the lines you just gotta turn the page
A7 E
Well the most outlaw thing that I've ever done was give a good woman a ring
E B7 E
But that's the way it goes, life ain't fair and the world is mean
Solo:
|A7 |E A7 |E B7 |E |
Verse 3:
E
Well I still got the wife and the dog but I swapped the truck out for a van
E
Gonna hit the road find the end of that long white line in the promise land
E A7 E
Won’t hear my song on the radio cause that new sounds all the rage
E B7 (once) (fill 2)
But you can always find me in a smokey bar with bad sound and a dim lit stage
Chorus:
A7 E
That's the way it goes in this day & age
E B7
You ain't gotta read between the lines you just gotta turn the page
A7 E
Well the most outlaw thing that I've ever done was give a good woman a ring
E B7 E
But that's the way it goes, life ain't fair and the world is mean
E B7 (fill 3)
But that's the way it goes, life ain't fair and the world is mean
