[Verse 2]
G
 Couldn't be a cowboy, I'm a hundred years late,
     G                    Cadd9
I'm a six string poet and a radio slave.
Em7             Dadd9/F#
I never ask for too many things,
     Dadd9/F#               G
Just bury me in blue jeans.

[Chorus]
    Cadd9                 G
And I know, I know that's so far to go
       Em7                   Dadd9/F# 
Got the roots of an oak and a tumbleweed soul
    Cadd9                  G
When my time's up all this good ol' boy needs
     Em7        Dadd9/F#     G
Is to bury me in blue jeans.

[Verse 3] 
G
 I'm a brother, I'm a son, I'm a dad,
G                       Cadd9
 I'm a thankful one for everything I have.
Em7            Dadd9/F#
 I'm not gonna regret the past
Dadd9/F#                         G
 When they bury me in blue jeans.

[Chorus]
    Cadd9                 G
And I know, I know that's so far to go
       Em7                   Dadd9/F# 
Got the roots of an oak and a tumbleweed soul
    Cadd9                  G
When my time's up all this good ol' boy needs
     Em7        Dadd9/F#     G
Is to bury me in blue jeans.

Please give me so far to go,
Oh, give me so far to go.
If you can hear me now
Give me so far to go.
Give me roots of an oak,
I got a tumbleweed soul
So far, so far to go, it's so far to go.
