[C] [F]
[C] [Am] [F] [G]
[C] Resting [F] on a roadside [C] bench beside a sleeping [F] dog, counting and recounting [G] all I own.
A faded [D] pair of [C] Levi's, a worn out pair of boots, [F] a pair [G] of socks, a t-shirt and a [C] comb.
I'd started [F] out for Frisco, [C] but then I'd changed my mind, [F] sort of cold up there [G] this time of year.
I wish [F] I had the jacket [C] I left [Am] in San Antonio, [F] it should have [G] been worth more than [C] just a beer.
But I'm free [G] as the wind [F] that's getting [C] kind of [F] cold, I'm free [G] as the geese [F] headed south [C] to Mexico.
I'm free as the hound [F] dog sleeping next to me, [C] but I'm not sure [F] that being free [G] is what I want to [C] be.
[F] [C]
[Am] [F] [G] [C]
Wonder what [F] the folks at home [C] would think of me right now, [F] the one they said most likely to [G] succeed.
[C] The winning [F] smile is faded, [C] a frown is in its place, [A] I've found that pride [G] is something I [C] can't eat.
The year that [F] I've been drifting [C] I've seen some better times, [F] but farther up the ladder I've [G] come down.
I [C] must have reached the bottom a day or [Am] so ago, [F] but there's nothing [G] now beneath me but [C] the ground.
But [F] I'm free [G] as the wind [F] that's getting [C] kind of cold, [F] I'm free [G] as the geese [Bb] headed [C] south to Mexico.
I'm free as the hound dog [F] sleeping next to me, but [C] I'm not sure that [F] being free is [G] what I want to [C] be.
But I'm not sure that being [F] free is what I [C] want to be.
