Mosey On Down

Key: E Major
Tempo: Laid-back shuffle (~70 BPM)

[Intro]

E – A – E – B7
E – A – E – B7

[Verse 1]

E
Got a worn-out hat and a busted sole
A
Blues in my pocket and a heavy toll
E
Ain’t no use stayin’ where I don’t belong
B7
I tip my hat to the past, then I mosey on

[Verse 2]

E
Left a note on the table, said “Don’t look back”
A
Tired of carryin’ this lonesome sack
E
Gonna find some peace on a brand new ground
B7
Ain’t no runnin’, just a mosey on down

[Chorus]

A
Mosey on down that broken road
E
Shake off the hurt, lay down the load
A
Dust in my hair, sun in my eyes
B7
But I got that feelin’ I’m finally alive

[Verse 3]

E
Met the blues at every fork in the trail
A
Some sang sweet, others rough as a nail
E
But I learned to smile through the pain somehow
B7
Now I hum a tune and I mosey on down

[Bridge]

A
I ain't fast, but I ain't stuck
E
Luck might change with a little luck
A
Don’t need much but my soul and a song
B7
And a road that just keeps rollin’ on

[Final Chorus]

A
Mosey on down, take it nice and slow
E
Ain’t chasin’ dreams, I just let 'em go
A
Leave what hurt me in that one-horse town
B7 E
Blues in my rearview… as I mosey on down

[Outro]

E – A – E – B7
E (let ring)
Yeah, I’m moseyin’ on down…
