Intro
Oh, I said[G] a little prayer tonig[C]ht 'fore I c[D]ame on s[G]tage[C/G] [G]

Seven pickers and all our in a rental van
Playin [G]music never sleepin and a-working on a neon tan[D]

For Bev R[C]oberts out in Camden Par[A]k
We plugged it in up eas[G]t a Bull Run, and the pl[D]ace went dark[G]
Chorus 1
[Am-Bbdim]
Back[G/B] when the ol[C]d [Bb]stuff was ne[G]w

2nd Verse (like first)
Oh the stories we could tell if it weren't for the code of the road
About the Buckboard, Bear Creek, Cowboys and the Grizzly Rose
You know the weather turned bad in Scottsdale
A tornado nearly stole the show
We just danced in the rain and listened to the thunder rolls
