No Matter Where You Go

C                            Dm
The day I reached the age of 21
Dm                 G             
I told my folks my farming days 
     Am
are done
C                                 
My ma and pa were sad as they 
  Dm
could be
Dm                 G             C
And when I left my pappy said to me

[Chorus]

C                              
Son this ol’ world ain’t like it 
          Dm
used to be
Dm                       G       
Its filled with trouble, hate, 
     Am
and misery
C                                 
But just remember this and you’ll 
   Dm
go far
Dm                  G             
No matter where you go, there you 
 C
are

[Verse 2]

C                                 
Don’t lead a horse to water pa 
    Dm
would say
Dm                    G     
Who wants to smell a wet horse 
      Am
anyway?
C                              
Don’t drive when you’re drinking 
      Dm
alcohol
Dm                 G             
'Cuz if you hit a bump you’ll 
       C
spill it all

[Verse 3]

C                              
Don’t cache your bread up on the 
         Dm
water jack
Dm                       G       
You’ll just have soggy bread when
          Am
 it gets back
C                                
And son you must obey the golden 
Dm
rule
Dm                 G             
And most of all my boy don’t blow
       C
 your cool

[Chorus]

C                                 
Son this ol' world we live in aint
    Dm
 so hot
Dm                 G             Am
But sonny its the only one we’ve got
C                                Dm
And now I know he’d never lie to me
Dm                     G         
For no matter where I went, there
     C
 I'd be
