Em  D  C

[Verse 1]
Em
I've been out and I’ve been drinking
C                              D
Why am I always thinking about things
That don't really matter 
       Em
like twin towers and satellites?
C
Everyone I know got older
Em
Told my drunk ass to get sober
D
Settle down and have some kids
Em
Be content with all of it

[Pre-Chorus]
C                               
What if I don't want children to
 Em
 grow up like their father?
           D               
Willing to stir shit up and
                Em
 start a fight, give themself
 up an appetite

[Chorus]
C      G              D    Em
Why am I in Northwest Arkansas?
        C        G    
Playing shows to those
           D       C
 who don’t care at all
        C     G      
With my money bloody, 
     D          Em
and my belt so tight
  C    G            D    C
I work myself up an appetite

[Verse 2]
C                                    
I've been out and
 I've been drinking,
 Em
 cutting up my life in sections
      D                  
I say I gotta act my age,
      Em
 shut the fck up and get on stage
C
Together I pack my bags quickly
Em
Toothbrush, combs and
 my dogs with me
D                           
Strong enough to handle this,
  Em
 fame and other corny shit

[Pre-Chorus]
C                            
What if I don't want children 
    Em
to grow up like their father?
           D                     
Willing to stir shit up and start 
          Em
a fight, give themself up an appetite

[Chorus]
C      G              D    Em
Why am I in Northwest Arkansas?
        C        G    
Playing shows to those

and my belt so tight
  C    G            D    C
I work myself up an appetite

Now, I work myself up 
     D    C
