Ragged Old Truck

[INTRO: ]A 

A                      
Early this mornin' without any warnin' 
  D                   A 
I took me a look at myself, Good God! 
  D                        A 
I seen how this married up life I've been livin' 
    B7                    E 
Was tryin' to choke me to death 
  A    
I laid on the bed with my gun to my head 
      D                     A 
And I nearly 'bout ended it all 
      D                   A            F#m 
But I come to myself just before I got killed 
      D              E            A 
And I blowed me some holes in the wall 


[Refrão]
    A      
I'm thinkin' 'bout crankin' my ragged old truck up 
    D                   A 
And haulin' myself into town 
    D                         A 
I'm thinkin' 'bout raisin' so doggoned much hell 
       B7                       E 
'Til I die before I live it all down 
  A  
I lay around this place 'til I'm blue in the face 
      D                   A 
And I may as well be underground 
    D                          A          F#m 
I'm thinkin' 'bout crankin' my ragged old truck up 
    D         E         A 
And haulin' myself into town 


SOLO 


A honky tonk man in a honky tonk band 
With a honky tonk girl on my arm 
I may be as ugly as an old mudrail fence 
But I'm loaded with hillbilly charm, that's right! 
Yeah it's my life and no wife of mine's gonna tell me 
I can't go and have me some fun 
So before that old heffer drives back in from Waco 
You can bet your rear end I'll be gone 


CHORUS 

         D                          A          F#m 
Yeah I'm thinkin' 'bout crankin' my ragged old truck up 
    D         E         A 
And haulin' myself into town
