C G7 C
I'm going to sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar
F C
I'm going to lay on my back and laugh at my lucky star
F C
And then I'm gonna fly away and never come back someday
D G
Unless I thought I was gonna land right close to where you are
C G7 C
Well, if I thought anybody cared I'd send back word
F C
Strapped to the leg of a trans celestial bird
G C
I wonder if I really ever did leave, how many would there be to grieve
D
How they react to the word

C G7 C
Well, I wouldn't want to hurt a solitary soul
F C
I have still got all 6 foot 2 in control
F C
But when my obligation's low is a greasy uphill road
D G
And pleasing everybody but me is my first goal
C G7 C
I want to sit on my porch and pick on my old guitar
F C
And just hope you're hanging loose where ever you are
F C
And for the joy you brought to me this song I sung for thee
G7 C
While I sit on my porch and pick on my old guitar
