Then my [C] Momma said, "Go on, as she stood and [F] cried And my Daddy said, "I'm gone. I gotta live my life." |[Chorus] |And I was [C] born one summer night |When the world loved Patsy [F] Cline |I was [G] raised by the tracks, in a tar-paper shack |On the Georgia-Alabama line |Momma [C] taught me how to play and sing |And we headed up to [F] Tennessee |[G] Momma sold my soul on country rock and roll |But Daddy laid the blues on [C] me [Verse 2] Well I [C] signed that dotted line, and I climbed my way to being a [G] star When I [G] ran across my Daddy in a downtown Tallahassee [C] bar He said, [C] "Girl there ain't no life on the road, you better come [F] with me."
