(Drum intro)

C#m A E x2

[C#m]Driving to a [A]baseball game, [E]on a Friday aft[(B)]ernoon
[C#m]Hotter than H[A]ell in Atlanta, G[E]eorgia [E]
[C#m]Guess it's been 1[A]5 years s[E]ince I came [(B)]through here
[C#m]Probably shou[A]ld have called to [E]warn you[E]
But I'm stopping by,[B] I'm stopping b[A]y, Daddy

(C#m) break 1 measure

[C#m]How did your [A]life turned out? D[E]o you ever th[(B)]ink about
[C#m]teenage girl[A] in Chatta[E]nnoga?[E]
[C#m]Ever tell your f[A]olks the truth?,[E]that might been t[(B)]he last of you
[C#m]It would have[A] been a shame we [E]hardly knew you[E]
Now I'm stopping by[B], I'm stopping by[A], Daddy

(C#m) break 1 measure

[C#m]Think the best of me is stil[A]l standing in the[E] doorway[E]
[C#m]Counting cars and counting[A] days and counting y[E]ears[E]
[C#m]I could say you made me go[A] through life the [E]hard way[E]
It might have been w[B]orse if you were here [A]

[C#m]Looking through a [A]picture book, t[E]his one I think [(B)]my mama took
[C#m]You couldn't have[A] been much over[E] 20[E]
[C#m]You're shirtless in your [A]cut off jeans and [E]hand a lolly[(B)]pop to me
[C#m]Probably asked w[A]here you got the mon[E]ey[E]
[C#m]Picture on ano[A]ther page,[E] I reco[(B)]gnize my eyes have aged
[C#m]I'd been alon[A]e for quite a[E] while then[E]
[C#m]Trying to get a [A]match to burn,[E] waiting on a l[(B)]atch to turn
[C#m]I still have d[A]ifficulty smiling[E][E]
But I'm stopping by[B], I'm stopping by,[A] Daddy

(C#m) break 1 measure

[C#m]Think the best o[A]f me is still standi[E]ng in the do[E]orway
[C#m]Whatever's [A]left is he[E]aded south o[E]n 85
[C#m]Passing fa[A]milies on vac[E]ation headed[E] your way
They look so happy and aliv[B]e, that I'm stopping by[A], Daddy

Outro: 4 bars of riffing on C#m I think
