Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

A A F♯m D E A

AIt must be that time of year F♯m

I'm Dfeeling that pull agaiEn

AI've got to get away from here F♯m

and backD to where my feet can stand E

ABack to where the trees grow tall F♯m

and ain'Dt a sound for miles around E

AExcept for the distant call F♯m

of thatD lonely coyote's howl E A

DLife's mysteries unravel when my tires hit that gravel A

and I leave thEe paved road far behind A

AEvery breath I breathe is one step closer to me F♯m

easinDg my worried mind E A

Repeat same pattern

Way back in the sticks

is where I feel alive

in my rusty old '66

that won't even go fifty five

Nothing can compare

to the joy that I've found

every time I go back there

to my own spiritual ground

I'll make a quart of sweet corn whiskey

from ten gallons of sour mash

I'll turn a pile of firewood

into a pile of sky grey ash

If there's anything left inside me

that remembers what it's like to feel

that cold rain falling on the top of my head

and the mud beneath my heels
