[F] I was [C] born a restless [F] kind, count [C] my days in court time.
Welcome back y'all.
Well, I am going to have the privilege of introducing you to one of our
longtime [Fm] friends and one of my favorite people on the planet, Travis Meadows.
Good to have you with
us.
Wasn't always the case.
It used to be a liability.
We ain't talking about that.
We're
looking forward.
But you know, I think you've got just about every song on the radio right now.
Seems like it.
I mean, you are on a roll.
I'm telling you, he's had a tremendous year.
Blackberry
Smoke.
Well, you had Skinner before that.
You had the lead on that.
The title cut.
You had
Blackberry Smoke, Levi Lowry.
Now you got Dierks.
And I heard a [N] rumor.
I heard a rumor about
somebody about this song you're about to do.
Yeah, I got this call a couple weeks ago and
Jake Owen called me and said that it was going to be the next single.
And I said,
you're not messing with me, right?
Just sitting candid camera or something.
But no, it was [E] it was he he said it.
He just felt like it was a career move and a wise career
movie that, you know, he wanted to be a long term artist.
And he felt like that he needed some
some songs with meaning, you know, that people could remember him by.
And so he chose that song
said it was his favorite song on the record.
So very, very exciting.
Yeah, it's awesome.
You know what you just said that, you know, a song that's going to have some longevity,
some meaning, you know, [Eb] you're kind of the well for that.
I think you're probably going to be one
of those writers here now that everything's catching on a lot of this, your catalogs catching
on.
I think you're gonna be one of those that they're gonna be coming to over and over.
I sure hope so.
Because I could use the money.
[C] Well, let's let's hear it.
I'd love to hear it.
All right.
We all want [G] what [C] we got.
[F] Our favorite doors are [C] always [G] locked.
[C] [F] From the higher hill [C] to the taller [Am] top.
[G] [C] We all want what we ain't got.
We ain't happy where we are.
There's greener grass in the [G] neighbor's yard.
[C]
A bigger house and a [Am] faster car.
[C] We ain't happy where we are.
All I want is [Am] what I have.
[C] I'd trade it all just [Am] to get her back.
