Intro
D D D D 

D
I swear I gave up drinkin
    G
Sometimes I have no choice
          D
After singin hard six nights straight
          A
A little sip sure helps my voice
           D                        
Don’t get me wrong, I love these songs
          G
And I know I got it made
         D
Sometimes my mind starts driftin’
           A               D
When I’m up here on the stage


D
To that last half mile of dirt road 
          G
And that oak tree on the hill
         D
To them dogs out barkin in the yard 
         A
And that tractor in the field
        D
To them kids up on the front porch screamin’
G
Mama daddy’s home
          D                                   A  
When I’m out here I’m just thinking ‘bout the things I miss 
     D
the most
                

D
Yeah the hardest thing I have to do
        G
Is hang up this telephone
        D
There’s so much lrft to talk about 
    A
And I’ve been gone so long
   D
So put them kids on one more time
G
Before they go to sleep
           D
And baby, know no matter where I go
A              D
All that I can see…

          D
Is that last half mile of dirt road 
          G
And that oak tree on the hill
         D
To them dogs out barkin in the yard 
         A
And that tractor in the field
        D
To them kids up on the front porch screamin’
G
Mama daddy’s home
          D                                   A  
When I’m out here I’m just thinking ‘bout the things I miss 
     D
the most
                

                      G       G
The things I miss the most
                      D       D
The things I miss the most
               C      C/B
And it’s killing me I hate to leave
     C/Bb               C/B
This family that you’ve given me
     C            C/B
God only knows, I hate to go
      C/Bb                     C/B 
So hold me close and let me let you know
                            D
About the tings I miss the most


Solo

D
People always ask me
G
After every show
            D
Of all the places that you’ve ever been
           A                  D
What’s your favorite place to go


         D
To that last half mile of dirt road 
          G
And that oak tree on the hill
         D
To them dogs out barkin in the yard 
         A
And that tractor in the field
        D
To them kids up on the front porch screamin’

Mama daddy’s home
