Justin Soileau - Oak Tree Chords

INTRO:  
G  F#m  G Bm D  G Bm D  A

VERSE:
A        G         Bm       D
In the shade of an old oak tree, 
           G        Bm        D
I had the selfish idea to go back to sleep. 
        G          Bm          D
But I fought every urge and I sat still 
                  A   A
And hoped to be free. 


VERSE:
 A       G          Bm                D
All the lies that I tell - they come back to me. 
      G         Bm              D
In a wake of regret that could sober me.  
       G           Bm            D                  A     A
And redemption it came with the sun and the summer breeze. 
 

CHORUS:
         G      A   D          Bm
Oh, I'd like to be out on the road, 
 G          A       D              Bm
With my guitar and one change of clothes. 
         G      A    D    
And I'd like to be whole. 


INSTRUMENTAL:
D  D  A  A  F#m D  D  A  A


VERSE:
 A     G       Bm         D
Last night I thought of calling you. 
         G           Bm           D
But the notion wore thin when I heard the tune, 
        G       Bm             D                A
That brought me back to those times in Lacey's room. 


CHORUS:
         G      A   D          Bm
Oh, I'd like to be out on the road, 
 G          A       D              Bm
With my guitar and one change of clothes. 
         G      A
And I'd like to be  


BREAK:
 G             Bm            A
Somewhere my thoughts can breathe, 
      G             D     A
And troubles don't follow me. 
     G          Bm   A             G 
The heavy ship goes down with the sea, 
    Bm           G         A
bBut my load is light and free.
