A Walking Country Song
By David Snyder

V1

Throwin’ chairs off of a Nashville roof
Cause I’m drinkin’ little 100 proof
You know I’m grinning in a baseball cap
I wear it backwards cause you like it like that
Cause I ain’t classy but it’s how I roll
I’m the one they never could control


CH

Ah girl I’m gonna make it
Take every heart and break it
Just as long as they can take it, I’m stayin’ strong
Cause girl I was born a walking country song

V2

Got a mullet in my mugshot yo
I’ll post some bail and then I’ll skip parole
I’m wearing handcuffs but I’m breaking  loose
Then I’m gonna love you while I’m wearing my boots
Sometimes it seems like I can do no wrong
No matter what I do they always sing along

CH

Ah girl I’m gonna make it
Take every heart and break it
Just as long as they can take it, I’m stayin’ strong
Cause girl I was born a walking country song


Bridge

Yeah I drink too much
Yeah I talk too much
But girl you’re so damn smokin’
That you’re hot to the touch

CH

Ah girl I’m gonna make it
Take every heart and break it
Just as long as they can take it, I’m stayin’ strong
Cause girl I was born a walking country song


V3

I was caught buck naked but I'm not in jail
I was caught buck naked and I'm raising hell
And I was born spoiled rotten
If you can't tell

CH

Ah girl I’m gonna make it
Take every heart and break it
Just as long as they can take it, I’m stayin’ strong
Cause girl I was born a walking country song

Outro

And I can write a hit
Write it like this
And every song sounds the same
But I’m staying strong
Cause girl I was born a walking country song
Cause girl I was born a walking country song
Cause girl I was born a walking country song

WALKING COUNTRY SONG

STAIRWAY TO SOMEWHERE


V1

I can see my with Druid eyes
That the green trees have not died
In the dark forests of old
In the Dragon’s Shire

And a new day will soon belong 
For those whose hearts still sing the song 
As they swim in the silver stream
Of believing

And the oceans will dream 
Of a new world not seen 
But reveals everything 
We are thinking

OH…

Ch 1

So we’re searching the mist
For what is left there
And we’re dreaming of a stairway 
to somewhere

V2

And we will meet at the June fair 
In the sixth month of May 
Though it makes sense to say 
This has no meaning 

But the jester will play
And the druids will pray 
And the maids will give theirs 
For the milking

In the mists of Avalon 
The angel fairies sing a new song 
And they say that the evening 
Is dawning 

OH



V3

And the sky is upside down 
And the queen wears the crown 
Of the king who gave his 
To the jester 

OH

V4

So a bright light will surely shine 
On the road to the Wizard’s shrine
Where the princess gives birth 
To the morning 

And  then a new day will come 
To those who come from 
That dark castle we knew 
Before forgetting 

OH

SOLO


CH

Ch 1

So we’re searching the mist
For what is left there
And we’re dreaming of a stairway 
to somewhere

So we’re searching the mist
For what is left there
And we’re dreaming of a stairway 
to somewhere

dreaming of a stairway 
to somewhere
