Back Roads

(início)

Drop D Tuning
Some of the weird chords at the end of the
chorus are just a long walkdown from the Cadd9
to the D, but here they are:
    D
The backroads of this county
               Cadd9
Cross like the laces on my boots
              G/B                                D
And I've been running them down since I was able to
                D
I left home at nineteen
            Cadd9
Swore I was never goin back
            G/B                           D
Nights like this I wish thats where I was at
CHORUS:
                   Cadd9
Slow pokin' down a blacktop
                  D
Cuttin tires on a white rock
                     Cadd9
There's a party on a dead end road
                          D
We're just hopin that the cops dont show
             Cadd9
Somebody is lookin for a fight
                   D
It's gonna be that kind of night
               Cadd9          G/B
When I get too far from home
               D           Cadd9  G/B  Dsus4/A  Dsus4/F  D
I go find me a back road
Well I remember the summer
That I turned sixteen
I made out with a girl in the back of her hatchback Chevrolet
And I drank my first beer
On the Louisiana state line
My first time to see the other side
CHORUS  (No walkdown at the end)
Cadd9
Well I heard them tell me
          D
Son don't forget where you came from
Cadd9
And I never have
                    D
And I still like to beat that drum
Cadd9
From the river bottoms
       D
To the tall pine trees
   A
It forever will be
      A
Right here inside of me
CHORUS
