C# B My granddaddy was a trucker, took his fair share of bumpers F# Chasing white lines for a dollar, C# but he never let us down C# B Now I’m a different breed of drifter, I do my kind of drifting F# With a guitar and a bottle and I play C# it good and loud C# B I cut tail and run too often to a bar down in Austin G# C# If I forget the words, you can blame it on the Crown Chorus: F# C# But you can bet I know about a lonesome road F# G# You can bet I know about a heavy load C# They call it playing for a living B But the truth is it isn’t F# C# As easy as a writing a song C# Tell my babies I love 'em G# C# B F# But their daddy ain’t never coming home Well, I still remember hearing the roaring of the engine Rolling in the drive after one long run And he worked himself to death, but on his death bed He looked at me and said, "The job ain't done" And I seen all I can see, just a guitar and me Chasing every honky-tonk in the setting sun Chorus You can bet I know About a lonesome road You can bet I know About a heavy load They call it playing for a living, but the truth is, it isn't As easy as a-writin' a song Tell my babies I love 'em But their daddy ain't never coming home Tell my babies I love 'em But their daddy ain't never coming home Ain't never coming home | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsB C# F# G# Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
