[Intro]
---------------------
A#m7

[Verse 1]
---------------------
       C#sus2
He had plastic bags wrapped 'round his shoes
He was covered with the evening news
     G#add9               D#
Had a     pair of old wool socks on his hands
G#add9        C#add9
     The bank sign was flashin' 5 below
It was freezing rain and spittin' snow
      G#               D#                G#
He was curled up behind some garbage cans

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C7                                     C#
  I was afraid that he was dead, I gave him a gentle shake
C7                                        C#            D#
  When he opened up his eyes, I said, "Old man are you OK?"
Fm7/D#       D#                        C#
     He said, "I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
                       G#
I was runnin' from some honey bees
                   C#
Drip-dryin' in the summer breeze
                   D#
After jumpin' into Calico creek
                      C#
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
                         G#                 G#/G Fm7
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
                      C#           D#
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
                    G#
'Cause I was almost home"

[Verse 2]
---------------------
              C#add9
Then he said, "I's just comin' 'round the barn
'Bout the time you grabbed my arm
G#                D#                 G#
When I heard mama holler, "Son, hurry up"
  C#add9
I was  close enough for my old nose
To smell fresh cobbler on the stove
G#             D#             G#
And I saw daddy loadin' up the

[Pre-Chorus (2)]

C7
  truck
                               C#
Cane poles on the tailgate, bobbers blowin' in the wind
C7                          C#           D#   Fm7/D# D#                                   
  Since July of '55, that's as close as I've       been" "Yeah, I just climbed out of

a cottonwood tree

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
                   G#
I was runnin' from some honey bees
               C#
Drip-dryin' in the summer breeze
                D#
After jumpin' into Calico creek

I was walkin' down an old dirt road
                    G#                      G#/G Fm7
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
                 C#                D#
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
        G#
I was almost home"

[Bridge]
---------------------
  D#
I said ,"Old man you're gonna freeze to death
Fm7
Let me drive you to the mission"
C#                                  D#
He said, "Boy, if you'd've left me alone
Right now I'd be fishin'"

[Chorus (3)]
