Guy Clark (Capo to taste, I don't use one here)
[Verse]
C F
I used to be Juanita's old boyfriend
C F
We sure gave 'em some stories to tell
C G F G
Now I can't even find her picture
F G C
I guess I'm finally through foolin' myself
C F
I used to be an ex-bullrider
C F
Livin' on the edge of life itself
C G F G
Now I can't even find my buckle
F G C
Looks like I'm finally through foolin' myself
[Chorus]
F C G C
Hang on just as long as you can
F G C
Get up whenever you fall
F C G C
Shake it off, Boys, and go 'round again
F G C
Don't be hangin' your life on the wall

F C G C
well you know that old dog of mine Caesar

now he could tell time, and he could drive a Volvo
F G C
but I probably should have never let him drive that day
[Verse]
C F
I used to be forever chasin' firetrucks
C F
I sure could raise me some hell
C G F G
I don't know why I like to do that kinda stuff

I used to have a smokin' little fastball

I sure could show 'em some stuff

I guess I'm finally through foolin' myself
