[Verse 1]
I was a Cselfish young man when I Glost my granddaddy
Am Fell in love to the B-Fside of "Shootenanny!"C G
Got more Cbottles than leaves on my Gfamily tree
Late Amnights, early flights is the Flife for meC G
[Pre-Chorus]
You Fburn by the Gfire
Or get Fchoked by the Gsmoke
Well, the Cthunder does the talking
But the Elightning does the work
O-o-o-Goh o-oh
[Chorus]
G7Carry me ChomFe
I'm no good when I'm aClonFe
I'm burned out to the CbonFe
Can't tell I'm Gcryin'
'Cause I'm G6stoned
Dragging my Amlove along the Flong Croad
[Verse 2]
Get your Cshoes on, get in the Gcar, get the lead out
Get Amover yourself, get everyFthing you need set outC G
One Chand on the heater, the Gother flippin' the radio
AmFull moon fever, full cup of Fcoffee on an open roadC G
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But the Fsun's coming Gup
Hits my Fheart like a Gdrug
When Call my wasted efforts
Are Epiled in a truck
O-o-o-Goh o-oh
[Chorus]
G7Carry me ChomFe
I'm no good when I'm aClonFe
I'm burned out to the CbonFe
Can't tell I'm Gcryin'
'Cause I'm G6stoned
Dragging my Amlove along the Flong Croad

[Verse 3]
Before the Csame old tricks, fell for the Glie, fell from grace
Fell Amfar behind, fell out of Ftime, fell out of placeC G
Falling Cbackwards, fell over, fell off the Gface of the earth
Fell in a Ambucket of luck, arms Fflailing, free falling face Cfirst, mGhmm
[Pre-Chorus 3]
But at Fnight we were Gfree
Mirror Fpond on the Gsea
I'm Clookin' out for you
Are you Elookin' out on me?
O-o-Goh oh

I'm no good when I'm aClonFe
I'm burned out to the CbonFe
Can't tell I'm Gcryin'
'Cause I'm G6stoned
Dragging my Amlove along the Flong Croad
Ah-Fah, long CroaFd G C
