One Too Many Roads

Capo 1st Fret

D                              
Stumblin' my way through life on 
         F#m
those back roads of Texas
G                               
Lord I guess I've seen a thing or 
   A
two
           D                       
There's a song in every smile, and 
      F#m
not knowin' where the next is
          G                        
Keeps my baggage packed and my mind
         A
 on the move
      Bm                         A
I've shared a lady's company in more
 than just one town
      G                            
When daylight comes a callin', I'm 
 A
nowhere to be found
     D                         
So I find myself searching, but 
          F#m       G
there's nowhere to go
                      A            
'Cause I've been down one too many 
  D
roads

G              A              D
I've been down one too many roads
Bm                                
I've found out the hard way ain't 
    G           A
the only way to go
         G              A      
And the miles I've put behind me 
         D              Bm
have left me a little slow
        G             A           
'Cause I've been down one too many
  D
 roads


Spent many a night alone, my coat 
draped across my shoulder
Chasin' headlights with my thumb in 
the air
And each truck that passes by makes 
me feel a little older
Makes me wonder, what the hell am I 
doing here
When I see those brake lights 
shining, I get that feeling down 
inside
When I crawl up in the cab, I know 
it's just another ride
I try hard to hide it, but I know it
 must show
That I've been down one too many 
roads

(repeat chorus)

When I was just 16, I fell in love 
with music
And taught myself to play this old 
guitar
I'd write all about my life, but 
they said they couldn't use it
Now I know why Nashville seems so 
far
Now I'm playing where I can for the 
money and the beer
Thank God for Texas, thank God I'm 
here
And if they wanted me in Nashville, 
I don't think I'd go
'Cause I've been down one too many 
roads

(repeat chorus)

'Cause I've been down one too many 
roads
