[Intro]
D
1986 Harley
A
Blowing smoke and suckin' oil
Em G
Daddy said, "Buy it and your crazy boy"
A
You can't tell me nothin'
D
It took me a year to fix it up
A
And one day to lay her down
Em G
I got a hitch in my git-along now
A D
You can't tell me nothin'
[Chorus]
A Bm G
Talk is cheap and free advice
D A
Is worth the price you pay
Bm G A
I had to find out for myself the hard way
D
You can't tell me nothin'
[Verse]
D
Hometown homecommin' sweetheart
A
No body thought I had a prayer
Em G
Her mamma said, "Boy don't you come around here"
A D
You can't tell me nothin'
D
They say be careful what you wish for
A
I wanted to be her man
Em G
Two babies and a trailor later, here I am
A D
You can't tell me nothin'
[Chorus]
A Bm G
Talk is cheap and free advice
D A
Is worth the price you pay
Bm G A
I had to find out for myself the hard way
D
You can't tell me nothin'
[Verse]
D
They say that drinking will kill you
A
The same thing for rollin' smokes
Em G
But that's two of the three things that I like most
A D
You can't tell me nothin'
[Outro]
D
I know what the good book preaches
A
But I know how I am
Em G
I just hope somebody out there under stands
A D
You can't tell me nothin'
A D
You can't tell me nothin'
