[Intro]
C   F   C G C

          C                    G              C
I'm gonna sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar
          F                                    C
I'm gonna lay on my back and laugh at my lucky star
    F
And then I'm gonna fly away
    C
And never come back someday
         D                                             G
Unless I thought I would land right close to where you are

                  C              G                   C
Well if I thought anybody really cared I'd send back word
F                                        C
Strapped to the leg of a trans-celestial bird
         F
I wonder if I ever really did leave
    C
How many would there be to grieve
          D                 G
How would they react to the word

       C                       G        C
Well I wouldn't want to hurt a solitary soul
       F                            C
I have still got all 6 foot 2 in control
            F
But when my obligation's low
     C
Is a greasy uphill road
    D                                     G   
And pleasin' everybody but me is my first goal

          C                    G                 C
I want to sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar
         F                                    C
And just hope your hangin' loose wherever you are
            F
And for the joy you brought to me
     C
This song I sung for thee
        G                                     C
While I sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar
