Ain't on the edge of no popular trends, 
G/E                  G/D#                    G 
Ain't never seen the inside of the magazine G.Q. 
G

 G                  Dm     
My hair's turning white,  
                     Cadd9                    G 
My neck's always been red, my collar's still blue, 
                   Dm                           Am7

(verse 2) 
We ride our own bikes to Sturgus pay own own dues,  
Smoking camels and drinking domestic brews, 
If you want to know where I've been, just look at my hands, 
Yea I've driven by the White House, spent some time in jail, 
Mamma cried, but she still wouldn't pay my bail, 
I ain't been no angel, but even God he understands, 
G                  Dm     
My hair's turning white,  
                     Cadd9                    G 
My neck's always been red, my collar's still blue, 
                   Dm                           Am7 
We've always been here just tryin' to sing the truth to you, 
                 F                C    
Guess you could say we've always been  
               G
