[Intro]

[Verse]
Ab        Db                                   
■  He had plastic bags wrapped 'round his shoes
   Db                               
He was covered with the evening news
      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                                    
He was curled up behind some garbage cans
C                            
I was afraid that he was dead
  Dbmaj7     Db          
I gave him a gentle shake
C7   C                    
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     Ab    Eb
After jumpin' into Calico creek ■ 
                   Db              
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
                         Ab                 
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
Fm                            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                                    
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                              
And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck
C7                C       
Cane poles on the tailgate
C7      Db                 
Bobbers blowin' in the wind
              C         
Since July of 'fiftyfive
Db                 Eb       
That's as close as I've been
                             Db             
Yeah 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

Let me drive you to a mission

Right now I'd be fishin'
                        Db             
I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
                   Ab             
I was runnin' from some honey bees
