AWon't you scratch my itch sweet DAnnie ARich AAnd welcome me back to town ACome out on your porch or I'll Dstep into your Aparlour And I'll Bshow you how it all went Edown AOut with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy Dangels And a Agood saloon in every single Dtown [Section 2] And DI remember Esomething you once Atold me And DI'll be damned if Eit did not come Atrue DTwenty thousand Eroads I went Adown, C#mdown, F#mdown And Dthey all lead me Estraight back home to Ayou [Section 3] 'Cause I C#mheaded West to Dgrow up with the Ecountry AF#mcross those prairies Ewith the waves of Agrain And I C#msaw my devil, and I Dsaw my Edeep blue Asea And I Dthought about a calico Ebonnet from DCheyenne to ETenneseeA
[Section 1 chords] We flew straight across that river bridge, last night half past two The switchman wave his lantern goodbye and so long as we went roling through Billboards and truckstops pass by the grievous angel And now I know just what I have to do [Section 3 chords] And the man on the radio won't leave me alone He wants to take my money for something that I've never been shown And I saw my devil, and I saw my deep blue see And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennesee [Section 1 chords] The news I could bring I met up with the king On his head an amphetamine crown He talked about unbuckling that old bible belt And lighted out for some desert town Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels And a good saloon in every single town [Section 2 chords] And I remember something you once told me And I'll be damned if it did not come true Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down And they all lead me straight back home to you
DTwenty thousand Eroads I went Adown, C#mdown, F#mdown And Dthey all lead me Estraight back home to Ayou
