G Em D C D
[Verse 1]
G
People call me crazy
G
Just a little thrown off
Em
Cause the road they travel
D
Ain't the path I'm on
C
But it sure feels good
D
To be makin' my own way
[Verse 2]
G
When I left Kansas
G
Swore I'd never look back
Em
But now that I'm gone
D
It makes me laugh
C
When I look in the mirror
D
And everything's still the same
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C
Well, my best pair of jeans
C
Got holes in the knees
D
Grease stain, and a Copenhagen ring
C
My trucks too loud and I still drink
D
That cheap light beer
[Chorus]
G D
Some things ain't never gonna change
Em
Like the burnin' sun down on the plains
Em
Stiff grease still turns the windmill
C D
The stars light up the midnight sky
G D
Tornadoes and black clouds in May
Em
Grain trucks on a dusty old highway
C
The kids are still draggin' main every Friday night
Am G C
And the old men talk about the good ol' days
D G
I guess some things ain't never gonna change
[Solo]
| G | Em D | C | D |
[Verse 3]
G
I drove my four-wheel drive
G
To this six-string town
Em D
While all of my buddies are settlin' down
C D
I'm just doin' the best I can at gettin' by
G
Well, the longer I'm gone
G
The more I see
Em D
This city brings out the country in me
C
And finds it's way
D
Into every song I write
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C
That's why I sing about dirt roads
C
And fishin' holes
D
The story of my life to a couple of chords
C
And it all goes good
D
With that cheap light beer
[Chorus]
G D
Some things ain't never gonna change
Em
Like the burnin' sun down on the plains
Em
Stiff grease still turns the windmill
C D
The stars light up the midnight sky
G D
Tornadoes and black clouds in May
Em
Grain trucks on a dusty old highway
C
The kids are still draggin' main every Friday night
Am G C
And the old men talk about the good ol' days
D G
I guess some things ain't never gonna change
[Solo]
| G | Em | C | D |
[Bridge]
C
Every time I go back home
D
My old truck drives itself
C
Back over to her house
D
My heart still lays where it fell
[Chorus]
G D
Some things ain't never gonna change
Em
Like the burnin' sun down on the plains
Em
Stiff grease still turns the windmill
C D
The stars light up the midnight sky
G D
Tornadoes and black clouds in May
Em
Grain trucks on a dusty old highway
C
The kids are still draggin' main every Friday night
Am C
Yeah, look at me talkin 'bout the good ol' days
D G Em
I guess some things ain't never gonna chang-ange
[Outro]
D C
Never gonna change
D G Em D C D G
This Kansas boy is still the same
