There's a [D]dirty piece of cardboard
that [G]reads Montgomery Ward
[A]taped across the window o[D]f my old Ford.
A six-pack on the front seat and a[G] box of chicken wings,
[A]I'm dialin' 'cross the radio for a song that I can [D]sing[D7]
[G]I'd better change my wandrin ways,
[D]I know I've seen my better days,
[A]always gettin' high when I get [D]low.[D7]
Well, I [G]left my soul out in the rain,
[D]Lord, what a price I've had to pay.
[A]The storms of life are washin' me [D]away.
An old mail pouch, tobacco sign
fadin' on the barn,
bringin' back sweet memories of Mama's farm/
When love was just a country girl that lived on down the road.
Spoken: you know, she almost had me turned around,
but that was years ago.
I'd better change my wandrin ways,
I know I've seen my better days,
always gettin' high when I get low.
Well, I left my soul out in the rain,
Lord, what a price I've had to pay.
The storms of life are washin' me away.
Yeah, the storms of life are washin' me away.
Howard

Verse 1: (Randy Travis)
I[A] was ten years old on my grandpa's farm when it happened
After all these years i can still hear grandpa l[E]aughin'
As he [A]applied that barnyard remedy
He p[D]assed his wisdom down to me
You d[A]on't reach for the honey[E] without smokin' the h[A]ive
Verse 2: (Clint Eastwood)
I[A] remember my first crush was on the preacher's daughter
We were smoochin' on the front porch swing that night when he c[E]aught her
We weren't [A]expectin' him home until quarter past ten
When the g[D]ood Lord taught me that lesson again
You d[A]on't reach for the honey[E] without smokin' the h[A]ive
Chorus: (Randy Travis,Clint Eastwood)
[A] You don't p[D]oint your pistol before you check each ch[A]amber
And you d[E]on't drink no you don't drink when you dr[A]ive
It's just [D]ordinary common sense to avoid that d[A]anger[F#m]
You d[A]on't reach for the honey[E] without smokin' the h[A]ive
Verse 3: (Randy Travis,Clint Eastwood)
S[A]he rolled into town with rodeo,she was a beauty
And that cowboy saw you wink at her,she was a c[E]utie
The sound of j[A]inglin' spurs caught me dead on a run
He was f[D]it to be tied and you were under the gun
You d[A]on't reach for the honey[E] without smokin' the h[A]ive
Chorus.
No,you d[A]on't reach for the honey[E] without smokin' the h[A]ive
[/]You're gonna get stung boy
