          G                   G/F#    
I've been warped by the rain, driven by the snow 
Em                       C   
Drunk and I'm dirty, but don't you know 
         G 	    C        G 
That I'm still...willin' 
G                G/F#  
Out on the road, late last night 
Em                     C  
Saw my pretty Alice in every headlight 
G      C         G   
Alice,....Dallas Alice 

               C              D   
I've been from Tucson to Tucumcari 
D                G 
Tehachapi to Tonapah 
            G                                  C 
I've driven every kind of rig that's ever been made 
     C                                      D 
I've driven the backroads so I wouldn't get weighed 
               C     D           G  
If you give me weed, whites, and wine 
                  D  
Can you show me a sign 
D           Em     C       G 
And I'll be willin'..to be movin' 
 
 
Mandolin Break 
 
 
I've been kicked by the wind, robbed by the sleet 
I had my head stoved in, but I'm still on my feet 
And I'm still willin' 
And I smuggled some smokes for folks in Mexico 
Baked by the sun every time I go to Mexico
