[Verse 2]
G
Couldn't be a cowboy, I'm a hundred years late,
G Cadd9
I'm a six string poet and a radio slave.
Em7 Dadd9/F#
I never ask for too many things,
Dadd9/F# G
Just bury me in blue jeans.
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And I know, I know that's so far to go
Em7 Dadd9/F#
Got the roots of an oak and a tumbleweed soul
Cadd9 G
When my time's up all this good ol' boy needs
Em7 Dadd9/F# G
Is to bury me in blue jeans.

I'm a brother, I'm a son, I'm a dad,
G Cadd9
I'm a thankful one for everything I have.
Em7 Dadd9/F#
I'm not gonna regret the past
Dadd9/F# G
When they bury me in blue jeans.
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And I know, I know that's so far to go
Em7 Dadd9/F#
Got the roots of an oak and a tumbleweed soul

Em7 Dadd9/F# G
Is to bury me in blue jeans.

Please give me so far to go,
Oh, give me so far to go.
If you can hear me now
Give me so far to go.
Give me roots of an oak,
I got a tumbleweed soul
So far, so far to go, it's so far to go.
