[Verse]
       Db                                   
He had plastic bags wrapped 'round his shoes
   Db                               
He was covered with the evening news
      Ab          Eb                Ab   
Had a pair of old wool socks on his hands
         Db                          
The bank sign was flashing five below
                Db                    
It was freezing rain an' spittin' snow
       Ab        Eb                  Ab  
He was curled up behind some garbage cans
C7                           
I was afraid that he was dead
  Db                     
I gave him a gentle shake
C7                        
When he opened up his eyes
       Db              Eb
I said Old man are you ok
                              Db               
He said I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree


[Chorus]
                   Ab             
I was runnin' from some honey bees
                   Db           
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze
                   Eb          
After jumpin' into Calico creek
                   Db              
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
                             Ab              Fm
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed ■ 
                      Db            Eb
Man I wish you'd just left me alone ■ 
                    Ab  
'cause I was almost home


[Verse]
             Db                              
Then he said I was just comin' round the barn
                  Db            
'bout the time he grabbed my arm
Ab                 Eb               Ab
When I heard momma holler son hurry up
      Db                          
I was close enough for my own nose
                       Db          
To smell fresh cobbler on the stove
Ab              Eb             Ab   
And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck
C7                        
Cane poles on the tailgate
Db                         
Bobbers blowin' in the wind
C7                      
Since July of 'fiftyfive
       Db          Eb       
That's as close as I've been


[Chorus]
                             Db             
Yeah I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
                   Ab             
I was runnin' from some honey bees
                   Db           
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze
                   Eb          
After jumpin' into Calico creek

Let me drive you to a mission

Right now I'd be fishin'
                        Db             
I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
