Merle Haggard – My Rough And Rowdy Ways (Guitar)

    C
For years and years I've rambled

  F                 C
I drank my wine and gambled

    F         C               G      C
But one day I thought I would settle down

C                    C7
I have met a perfect lady

F                    C
She said she'd be my baby

D                                 G
We built a cottage in the old hometown

    C
But somehow I can't give up my good old rambling ways

          D                               G
Lord, the railroad trains are calling me away

  C                              F
I may be rough, I may be wild, I may be tough and that's just my style

  C                A7       D         G7    C
I can't give up my good old rough and rowdy ways

    C
But somehow I can't give up my good old rambling ways

          D                               G
Lord, the railroad trains are calling me away

  C                              F
I may be rough, I may be wild, I may be tough and that's just my style

  C                A7       D         G7    C
I can't give up my good old rough and rowdy ways
