All I Can Do Is Write About It
All I Can Do Is Write About It
[G D Em C
G D C]
[G D]
Well this life that I've lived
[Em C]
Has took me everywhere
[G D C]
There ain't no place I ain't never gone
[G D]
But it's kinda like the sayin'
[Em C]
That you heard so many times
[G D C]
Well there just ain't no place like home
[G D C C]
[G D Em C]
Did you ever see a she-gator protect her youngins
[G D C]
Or the fish in a river swimmin' free
[G D Em C]
Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina
[G D C]
Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennesee
{CHORUS:}
[G D C]
And lord I can't make any changes
[G D C]
All I can do is write 'em in a song
[G D Em C]
Cus I can see the concrete a slowly creepin'
[G D C]
Lord take me and mine before that comes
{Short Solo (G Major)}
[G D C C]
[G D C C]
Like to see the mountain stream a flowing
Do you like to see a youngin with his dog
Did you ever stop and think about well the air you're breathing
Well you better listen to my song
{CHORUS}
{SOLO (A Major):}
[A E D D
A E D D

A E D D]
I'm not tryin' to put down no big city
But the things they write about us is just a bore
You can take a boy out of old Dixieland
But you'll never take Dixie from a boy
{OUTRO:}
{CHORUS, then}
[G D Em C]
Yes, well I can see the concrete a slowly creeping
[G D C]
Lord take me and mine before that comes.
