Almost Home3-crd Craig Morgan
[D]
He had[G] plastic bags wrapped 'round his shoes
He was covered with the evening news
Had a [D]pair of old wool [A]socks on his[D] hands [G]
The bank[G] sign was flashing 5 below
It was freezing rain and spitting snow
He was [D]curled up [A]behind some garbage [D]cans [G]
[F#m]I was afraid that he was dead
I [G]gave him a gentle shake
[F#m]When he opened up his eyes
I said[G] "man, are you [A]ok"
He said
Chorus
"I just climbed out of a[G] cotton wood tree[G]
I was running from some [D]honey bees
[D]Drip drying in the [G]summer breeze
After jumping into [A]Calico Creek
I was walking down an [G]old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had [D] just been mowed [Bm]
Man, I wish you'd just left [G]me alone
[A]Cause, I was almost [D]home"
He said, "I's [G]just coming round the barn
Bout the time you grabbed my arm
When [D]I heard mama [A]Holler son hurry up[D]
I was[G] close enough for my old nose
To smell fresh cobbler on the stove
And[D] I saw daddy[A] loading up the [D]truck
[F#m]Cane poles on the tailgate
Bobbers [G]blowing in the wind
[F#m]Since July of '55
That's as [G]close as I've [A]been
Chorus
"I just climbed out of a[G] cotton wood tree[G]
I was running from some [D]honey bees
[D]Drip drying in the [G]summer breeze
After jumping into [A]Calico Creek
I was walking down an [G]old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had [D] just been mowed [Bm]
Man, I wish you'd just left [G]me alone
[A]Cause, I was almost [D]home"
I said, [F#m]"Old man you're gonna freeze to death
Let me[G] drive you to the mission"
He said,[Em] "Boy, if you'd left me alone
right[A] now, I'd be fishin'"
Chorus
[Bm]Man, I wish you'd just left[G] me alone [A]
I was almost [G]home [D] [A] [D]
