[Verse]
         G
When you wake in the morning
    D
And I'm not by your side
     C                        G
Just know that I'm halfway to Dallas
    G
I'm stoned out my mind
         D
I'm half buzzed 'bout full time
          C                       G
Since you left me to die here last August
         G
When you make it to Nashville
        D
You can tell by one hat tilt
     C                       G
That that sh*t just ain't my scene
       G
I like out of tune guitars
       D
And takin' jokes too far
       C                    G
And my bartender extra damn mean
 
[Chorus]
                     C      G
So roll where you're rollin'
                       D    G
I'll be prayin' you're fine
                      C    G
Wherever where you're goin'
                  D  G
Stay walkin' that line
                G             C   N.C.  C G
'Cause they'll eat and they'll spit you
                     D G
But you're not their fool
                         C G
They don't know you like Ida
                D  G
Back home on barstools

[Verse]
    G
I'm out on the road
  D
When I'm going I go
       C                    G
I make music with all of my friends
       G
I miss your silhouette 
         D
Catchin' coastal sunsets
        C                        G
And the sound of that rusty door hinge
        G
But that day's bound to come when I
D
Finish this run and I'm
C                       G
Rollin' right into your arms
         G
And that bullsh*t you see
       D
On the late night T.V.
     C                         G
Is a long way from our beatin' hearts
 
[Chorus]
                     C    G
So roll where you're rollin'
                       D    G
I'll be prayin' you're fine
                C    G
Go where you're goin'
                  D  G
Stay walkin' that line
                G             C   N.C.  C G
'Cause they'll eat and they'll spit you
                    D G
But you ain't their fool
                         C G
They don't know you like Ida

I'll be prayin' you're fine
                C    G
Wherever you're goin'
