Take a Back Road by Rodney Atkins Guitar Chords and Lyrics

Title: Take a Back Road

Vocals: Rodney Atkins

Lyrics: Luke Laird, Rhett Akins

Capo 1

(D)Sittin in six lane backed up traffice 

(A)Horns a honkin, I've about had it

(G)I'm lookin for an exit sign       

Gotta get(A) outta here, get it all off my mind

(D)And like a memory from your grandpa's attic

(A)A song comes slippin through the radio static

(G)Changin my mood       

A little (A)George Strait 1982

Chorus:

  

(D)aa..And it makes me wanna take a back road

(A)Makes me wanna take the long way home

(G)Put a little gravel in my travel

(A)Unwind, unravel all night long 

(D)aa..Makes me wanna grab my honey

(A)Tear down some two lane country

(G)Who knows                                       

Get lost and get right with my soul(A)                                               

(D)aa..Makes me wanna take, makes me wanna take(A) a back(G) road(A)

(D)aa..I've been cooped up, tied down                                       

'Bout forgotten what a field looks(A) like full of corn and cotton  

If I'm (G)gonna hit a traffic jam          

Well it better be a (A)tractor man

(D)aa..So sick and tired of this interstate system                                                   

(A)I need the curvin, windin, twistin dusty path to (G)nowhere                

With the wind blowin (A)through my baby's hair

(Repeat Chorus)
