CHORDS:
-------
   EADGBE          EADGBE
E (022100)    D   (xx0232)
B (x2444x)    C#m (x46654)
A (x02220)    F#m (244222)


Pretty good song. For a country song, anyway. Kid Rock's strange.
I like his Cowboy song better though. This is just the chords, the
solo things are basically all E blues scale.


INTRO:
------
E   B   A   E


VERSE 1:
--------
          E                       B
I've been sittin' here, tryin' to find myself
        A                        E
I get behind myself, I need to rewind myself
                E                       B
Lookin' for the payback, listen for the playback
              A                          E
They say that every man bleeds just like me


VERSE 2: [play like verse 1]
--------
And now I feel like number one, yet I'm last in life
I watch my youngest son, and it helps to pass the time
I take too many pills, it help to ease the pain
I made a couple of dollar bills, still I feel the same


CHORUS:
-------
          E                          B
Everybody knows my name, they say it way out loud
               A                               E
A lot of folks fuck with me, it's hard to hang out in crowds
                   E                         D
I guess that's the price you pay, to be some big shot like I am
A                                     E
Outskirt stands and one night stands,  still I can't find love


BRIDGE:
-------
C#m               F#m
    And when your walls come tumbling down
C#m         F#m        A
     I will always be around

E    B    D  A   E
E    B    D  A   E

C#m               F#m
    And when your walls come tumbling down
C#m         F#m        A
     I will always be around


VERSE 3:
--------
E                           B
People don't know about the things I say and do
           D          A                     E
They don't understand   about the shit that I've been through
     E                   B
It's been so long, since I've been home
A                                   E
 I've been gone, I've been gone for way too long


VERSE 4:
--------
E                       B
Maybe I forgot, all the things I miss
   A                              E
Oh somehow I know there's more to life than this
          E                     B
I said it too many times, and I still stand firm
    A                        E
You get what you put in, and people get what they deserve


CHORUS:
-------
        E                     D
Still I ain't seen mine, no I ain't seen mine
          A
I've been giving, just ain't been gettin'
          E
I've been walking down that line
     E                                   B
So I think I'll keep on walking, with my head held high
          A                  E
I'll keep moving on and only God knows why


OUTRO:
------
     E            B
Only God.....only God
A              E
Only God knows why
     E      D        A                             E
Only God....knows....why, why, why, only God knows why
D   A                E                            D    A    E
      Take me to the river,  yeah, take me to the river

D  A  E  E
D  A     E
