[Intro] C [Verse 1] C I don't like sleepin' in and rushin' off to work C I don't like people who ain't actin' out their words F I don't like jeans that fit too tight C And fish that don't bite Am F And gettin' thrown and landin' in the dirt C I don't like dogs inside layin' on my bed C And people messin' with the words in red F I don't like flashin' engine lights C And walkin' away from fights Am F And a lot of words in anger that I've said [Chorus] G But I like Jesus and Jones F C And turnin' off my phone G F And layin' on the ground starin' at the moon C I like sittin' in the saddle and brandin' my cattle Dm G And as the sun is settin', a beer or two Dm G C And layin' back with my woman when each day is through [Verse 2] C I don't like how many men are takin' their own lives C 'Cause the world told them to keep it all inside F But if they touch a girl or child C You can read me my rights Am F It's just the way I am and that's no lie [Chorus] G Yeah, I like Jesus and Jones F C And turnin' off my phone G F And layin' on the ground starin' at the moon C I like sittin' in the saddle and brandin' my cattle Dm G And as the sun is settin', a beer or two Dm G C And layin' back with my woman when each day is through [Instrumental Break] F C F G [Bridge] G Yeah, I like standin' up for right F C G F And stayin' up all night around an old campfire sharin' songs and 90 proof C Dm I like wide open spaces and my lady's face when she's snuggled up and I'm leavin' G 'Cause there's work to do Dm G And layin' back with that woman [Chorus] G I like Jesus and Jones F C And turnin' off my phone G F And layin' on the ground starin' at the moon C I like sittin' in the saddle and brandin' my cattle Dm G And as the sun is settin', a beer or two Dm G C And layin' back with my woman when each day is through [Outro] Dm G No, I ain't got it all figured out, but I think I do Dm G C When I'm layin' back with that woman when each day is through
