Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]The[A] wo[D]rld[A]'s number one selling cowboy singer,[D]
[A]Michael [D]Martin Mur[A]phy.[D][A][D][A][D][A][D][G][D][A][D][G][A][G][A]
[D][A]
[D]I'm [A]tired of [D]drinking your muddy water
And sleeping in your [G]hol[D]low lo[A]g[G]
I'm gonna [A]take up with a stranger
I'm gonna [G]get myself a
[A]fast [D]-moving [A]dog[D]
[A]Goodbye[D] you empty clo[Em]sets
and [D]my true love [G]of seven [A]years[G]
I'm on a south[A]western pilgrimage
to be a [G]frontier son[A]neteer[D][A]
Goodbye [D]you auctioneers
[Em]and [D]you guillotine racketeer[A]s[G]
I'm look[A]ing for a holy man
out [G]here on the [A]old [D]frontier[A]
I'm gonna [D]take along a lady
[Em]who ain't neve[D]r seen a mount[G]ain before
[A]I'm[G] on a southw[A]estern pilgrimage
where the [G]middle class
can't [A]hunt me down no [D]more[A][D][Em][D][G][A][G]
[A][G][A][D][A][D][Em][D][G][D][A]
[G][A][G][A][D][A]
I [D]should have been a [Em]gypsy all [D]along
And I [G]know [D]that right [A]now[G]
But I [A]got slowed up
I let a [G]city woman [A]drag me [D]down[A]
And the [D]contracts and the [Em]circus acts
[D]Made it so I could[G]n't
re[D]lax [A]anymore[G]
But my [A]stomach never hurt me much
when [G]I was sleeping o[A]n the f[D]loor[A]
That [D]old buzzard's [Em]flying all [D]around
my [G]same old [D]Texas [A]sky[G]
And I [A]take that as a sign
It's [G]time to either [A]lay me down or [D]fly[A]
And so it's [D]out of my [Em]house,
[D]in to my [G]old truckin' [A]clothes[G]
I'm on a [A]southwestern pilgrimage,
where [G]the wheels dodge,
[A]nobody [D]knows[Em][D][Em][D]
Thank you.
