Lyrics & chords

[Chorus 1]
[A][A]
It's been [A]rough and rocky travelin'
But I'm finally standing upright on the ground
After [A]takin' several readings I'm surprised
To find my mind's still fairly sound
I guess [D]Nashville was the roughest
But I know I've said the same about them all
We've re[E]ceived our education
In the cities of the nation, me and [A]Paul

[Verse 1]
Almost [A]busted in Laredo but for reasons
That I'd rather not disclose
But if you're [A]stayin' in a motel there and leave
Just don't leave nothin' in your clothes
And at the [D]airport in Milwaukee
They refused to let us board the plane at all
They [E]said we looked suspicious
But I believe they like to pick on me and [A]Paul

[Chorus 2]
Well it's been [A]rough and rocky travelin'
But I'm finally standing upright on the ground
After [A]takin' several readings I'm surprised
To find my mind's still fairly sound
I guess [D]Nashville was the roughest
But I know I've said the same about them all
We've re[E]ceived our education
In the cities of the nation, me and [A]Paul

[Interlude 1]
[A][A][D][D]
[E][E][A][A]

[Verse 2]
On a [A]package show in Buffalo with us
And Kitty Wells and Charlie Pride
The show was [A]long and we're just sittin' there
And we'd come to play
and not just for the ride
Well we [D]drank a lot of whiskey so I don't know
If we went on that night at all
But I don't [E]think they even missed us
I guess Buffalo ain't geared for me and [A]Paul

[Chorus 3]
But it's been [A]rough and rocky travelin'
But I'm finally standing upright on the ground
After [A]takin' several readings I'm surprised
To find my mind's still fairly sound
I guess [D]Nashville was the roughest
But I know I've said the same about them all
We've re[E]ceived our education
In the cities of the nation, me and [A]Paul

[Outro 1]
[A][A][A][A]
[Repeat and fade]
