[Intro] |C |F |C G |C [Verse 1]
                                  G                 C
I'm going to sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar

             F                                    C
I'm going to lay on my back and laugh at my lucky star

         F                         C
And then I'm going to fly away and never come back someday

         D                                                    G
Unless I thought I was going to land right close to where you are

           C               G                   C
Well, if I thought anybody cared I'd send back word

       F                                 C
Strapped to the leg of a trans celestial bird

         F                               C
I wonder if I really ever did leave, how many would there be to grieve

    D                       G
How would they react to the word
[Interlude] |C |F |C |G |C |F |C G |C | x2 [Verse 2]
                                      G       C
Well, I wouldn't ever want to hurt a solitary soul

       F                            C
I have still got all 6 foot 2 in control

             F                    C
But when my obligation's low is a greasy uphill road

    D                                     G
And pleasing everybody but me is my first goal

          C                   G                 C
I-want-to sit on my porch and pick on my old guitar

         F                                        C
And just hope you're hanging loose where ever you are

            F                          C
And for the joy you brought to me this song I sung for thee

        G                                     C
While I sit on my porch and pick on my old guitar
[Outro] |C |F |C |G |C |F |C G |C | x2
