INTRO:

VERSE:
         C
There's something 'bout a red dirt
           G
road that makes the sky more blue
 Am
Something 'bout the concrete scrapes
     F
the roots right off of you
C                            G
 I moved here 'cause making dollars
 made good sense
 Am7
Something 'bout them city limits
 F                      C
feels more like a fence in
C
I don't know why but today
 G                          Am7
Been thinking 'bout life and
I kinda wanna runaway
F
Go somewhere that I can

CHORUS:
 C                            G
Shake all the dust out of my head
                         Am7
Put it on this truck instead
                          F
Toss some empties in the bed
                  C
Out where nobody knows
 C                         G
You can find me where you can't
                       Am
Nowhere near no interstate
                              F
Turn down the road I know to take
                      Am
that's gonna save my soul
 Am
Crank up and gas it till
         F                C

              C
Don't get me wrong I sure do love
                G
the night they drove ol' Dixie down
         Am
But I'd rather drive through Dixie

It ain't gotta be Mexico naw

All I need is a six count

from the Texaco
Then I can go and
