Just the way I've always I been - Tom T. Hall
Homegrown
[A]
I took your picture from the [E] table
And now I finally [A] alone
I took your number from my [E] Rolodex
I might get weak and call your [A] phone
I got my [A7] chainsaw from your [D] brother
And I did all of this and [A] then
There ain't nothing new a [E] bout me
I'm just the [E7] way I' ve always [A] bin
Stopped at Harry's for a cold beer
And Danny won the football pool
Joe Garcetti (?) is back to drinkin'
They caught his kid with drugs at school
And everybody has their problems
Now you're gone and mine begin
Well, there ain't nothing new about me
I'm just the way I've always bin
I'm just the way I've always [D] bin
I love you now, I loved you [A] then
Same old faults and same old [E] friends
I'm just the way I've always [A] bin
You uncle called about my pick-up
He'd liked to use it for a day
I told him come ahead and get it
Cos I don't need it anyway
He doesn't know that you don't live here
I guess I'll have to tell our friends
Oh, there ain't nothing new about me
I'm just the way I've always bin
I'm just the way I've always bin
I love you now, I loved you then
Same old faults and same old friends
I'm just the way I've always bin
