The Dead South - Travellin man

^AWell this is a song about a travellin' man who knows just what he wants ^AHe thinks he's got it all figured out and tries not to take too much ^AHe's spent a lot of time tryin' this and that and he knows just what he likes and he ain't goin' back^{A D A E A A}Well I've got spiders in my bed and I've got slugs up on the wall ^DThere's a black bee a flyin' round outs^Aide of my back do^Eor ^AI'm weather worn my shirt is torn I got d^Dirt comin' out my ears Fr^Aom being ^Egone all these ye^Aars Well one half of my head keeps singing songs of years of old W^Dhile the other sheds its skin on aggre^Agates of mi^Enerals ^AI'm a cask of oak, I'm whiskey soaked, been ru^Dnnin' down the line

^AAwe pour me another one h^Eoney I'm doin' fi^Ane [Chorus] ^DI don't k^Anow where ^EI be^Along but I k^Dnow just ^Awhat I ^Elike ^DKicking up ^Adirt while I'^Em on the ^Arun, ^Ddouble wh^Aiskey no i^Ece Well ^DI don't know^A where^E I b^Aelong but ^DI know ju^Ast what I^E like ^DA pretty la^Ady and s^Eing along so^Angs, it'll ta^Dke me th^Erough the n^Aight

^DThere's calm before the storm I hear or s^Ao the story go^Ees ^AI'm dancing in it now, got a sweaty brow, I can feel it coursing through my ^Dveins ^AAwe look out baby I'm c^Eomin' through when it r^Aains

^DI don't k^Anow where ^EI be^Along but I k^Dnow just ^Awhat I ^Elike ^DKicking up ^Adirt while I'^Em on the ^Arun, ^Ddouble wh^Aiskey no i^Ece Well ^DI don't know^A where^E I b^Aelong but ^DI know ju^Ast what I^E like ^DA pretty la^Ady and s^Eing along so^Angs, it'll ta^Dke me th^Erough the n^Aight

^BmAnd I've been ^C#mgone fo^Ar so ve^Ery lo^Dng Baby do^Bmn't think tw^C#mice, I ^Aknow we^E'll be ^Dalright ^AI've got an abse^Ence without le^Dave I've got an ace tu^Acked up^E my sle^Deve With s^Aticks and st^Eones we'll ta^Dke the th^Arone ^DAnd make^E some hi^Astory

^DI don't k^Anow where ^EI be^Along but I k^Dnow just ^Awhat I ^Elike ^DKicking up ^Adirt while I'^Em on the ^Arun, ^Ddouble wh^Aiskey no i^Ece Well ^DI don't know^A where^E I b^Aelong but ^DI know ju^Ast what I^E like ^DA pretty la^Ady and s^Eing along so^Angs, it'll ta^Dke me th^Erough the n^Aight
