Intro: D 

D                            G 
Why hello there little lady, I'm just a lonesome guitar picker 
C                         G                  D 
You'd never know from the way I look I'm an educated man 
                                        G 
I got the music in my blood little lady, makes me ramble 'cross the land 
C              G                D 
Troubles on my mind, this old guitar in my hand 

D                         G 
I left my home and family, I wasn't much more than a child 
C                          G     D 
I don't count the towns no more, sure don't count the miles 
                                G 
I guess I'll never have a home, 'least ways not your kind 
C              G                                     D 
I just stopped here in this bar to try to bring some peace of mind 

Instrumental 
C G D 

D                                           G 
Well I usually play for my drinks and tips, 'cept when I play for free 
C         G                                 D 
This old guitar and a bag of songs, that's 'bout all there is to me 
                               G 
Little lady if you don't mind, I think I'll make a song for you 
C                     G                D 
I'll sing it down the road somewhere, that's the most that I can do 

D                                        G 
Lord the music just won't turn me loose, it's a curse to be this kind 
C                  G           D 
Little lady you'll never know, the comfort that I find 
                                                 G 
In just talkin' to someone like you in this bar along the way 
C                             G                 D 
You sure ain't the usual kind that I find to brighten up my day 

Instrumental 
C  G  D  

D                                           G 
And tonight when I lay down along some road to try to sleep 
       C                       G         D 
Just a memory in your treasure chest is all that you may keep 
                                          G 
No wait now, I got more than that to give, it's this locket made of gold 
C                        G              D 
My mother gave it to me ma'am, now it's yours to hold 

D                         G                            
Na, don't try to thank me, do I need a place to stay 
     C                      G                      D 
Well thank you little lady, why don't we pick up a bottle along the way
