Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Cowboys and [D]Indians and
[Em]trees he could climb
To[D]morrow came too fast but
[G]he didn't mind
The distance was [D]short so [Em]light it again
It [C]don't take no time to [D]get where I [G]am
But [C]one paper kid [G]wasn't really so mean
Just a [D]little bit scarred and a [G]little bit green
And he'd [C]heard of [D]a place it
was [G]leg[D] al[G] to[C] dream
So [G]he sat with his coffee in
a [Em]blue Texas wind
And he [G]wrote [C]on a rock
The [Em]one paper kid is r[D]ollin'

[Interlude 1]
again
[G][D][Em][C][D]

[Verse 2]
[G]Driver was drunk or he [Em]just didn't see
The [D]future is there it'll [G]happen to me
And all the time that he wasted
was [Em]his once again
Ah, it [C]never takes long to
[D]get where you've [G]been
[Em]Broken hearts scattered all [D]over the past
[C]Old bad [G]memories trying to last
[Em]Whiskey and [D]women and
[Em]grow[G]ing up f[C]ast
Fussing and loving an
[D]d itching like grass
Hell that [G]one paper [D]kid
wasn't [Em]really so mean
Just [D]a little bit weird cause
[G]times were so lean
Now he's [C]gone [D]to a place
where it's [G]leg[D] al to[C] dream
No [G]camels no [D]coffee no
[Em]cold [C]morning [Em]winds
It [D]was wrote on [G]a r[D]ock[Em][C]
The [Em]one paper kid is r[D]ollin' again

[Outro 1]
[G][Em][C][G]
