[Intro] C F C G C C G C I'm gonna sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar F C I'm gonna lay on my back and laugh at my lucky star F And then I'm gonna fly away C And never come back someday D G Unless I thought I would land right close to where you are C G C Well if I thought anybody really cared I'd send back word F C Strapped to the leg of a trans-celestial bird F I wonder if I ever really did leave C How many would there be to grieve D G How would they react to the word [Instrumental] C F C G C F C G C C F C G C F C G C [Interlude]

C G C Well I wouldn't want to hurt a solitary soul F C I have still got all 6 foot 2 in control F But when my obligation's low C Is a greasy uphill road D G And pleasin' everybody but me is my first goal C G C I want to sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar F C And just hope your hangin' loose wherever you are F And for the joy you brought to me C This song I sung for thee G C While I sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar [Outro Instrumental] C F C G C F C G C C F C G C F C G C
