Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
G We'll drive until the gas is gone C Then walk until our feet our torn Am Crawl until we feed the soil C Film the whole thing
G It's all business in the left hand lane C Drive there and then drive back again Am Escape can't be the only way C To escape
G So I've gotten used to coffee sweats C Still getting used to road regrets Am Hell I took you up on all your threats C To leave
Chorus:
G It's a shame
It's a crying shame C Thems the breaks Am And ain't it always the way C That takes you back to from where it is you came
Verse 2:
G Robby like's his country tune C It's never been the lens that I see through Am But I guess driving for a week or two C Puts words in your mouth
G So find dodge and then get out of it C It's about as country as I can get Am See you ain't living till you're living it C You're not dead till you die
G But watch out for the paraphrase C Cause they will crown you then they will take your legs Am See the cost is more than what you get paid C But do it anyway
Chorus:
G It's a shame
It's a crying shame C Thems the breaks Am And ain't it always the way C That takes you back to from where it is you came
