[guitar] [guitar] [backbeat] [verse] She's got perfect hair she worked at the old corner store The one with the old rusty sign the only place I stayed 'round for [harmonica solo] [verse] Main street was paved in red clay but her smile was painted red worked in the hot sun all day the thought of her eyes in my head [pre-chorus] The good lord don't test us with more than we got but I should have gave it one hell of a shot [Chorus, melodic, catchy, hook] It's where kids run free and truth is a staple and she was beauty so strong and stable So here's to my regrets and here's to the town cuz I take my whiskey I'm pouring it down Old Fashioned Yeah, old fashioned [solo] [steel guitar] [verse] I passed by that porch swing again where the wind used to whisper her name The floor boards still creak like they did but nothing 'round here feels the same [harmonica solo] [verse] I carved out her name in the bark of a tree that’s been weathered and split I buried my dreams in the goddamned dark too scared to love when I can't commit [pre-chorus] The good lord don't test us with more than we got but I should have gave it one hell of a shot [Chorus, melodic, catchy, hook] It's where kids run free and truth is a staple and she was beauty so strong and stable So here's to my regrets and here's to the town cuz I take my whiskey I'm pouring it down Old Fashioned Yeah, old fashioned [bridge] One day I might see her again Sometimes I go back, I like to pretend The town that I left from will still be the same My glass just feels empty and I am to blame [Chorus, melodic, catchy, hook] It's where kids run free and truth is a staple and she was beauty so strong and stable So here's to my regrets and here's to the town cuz I take my whiskey I'm pouring it down [outro] Old fashioned You in that gown and this sleepy old town old fashioned [harmonica] [instrumental] [end]
