G                                 D                     G 
We all go on a two month tour and nearly work ourselves sick
    C                                             G
Now we don’t know where all the money goes but we sure aint getting rich
  C                                          G
I think the fat men in New York and L.A. are giving us the whole run around
          G                                             F          C       G  
You bring 50,000 home and he says your overdrawn, it’ll just about get you down 
F          G       D
Just about get you down


Chorus:
               C                       G
But we keep on pickin’, and we keep on singing
       D                                          G
And we try and try to get high but we can keep on grinning
       G                                                                          C
Oh you wish you had home and someone of your own to love you when you get back in town
    C                       G
But this kind of live don’t cotton to wife 
      F          C       G     F          C       D 
It’ll just about get you down, Just about get you down

Solo

Yea you got fortune and fame and a well known name, aww, your really flying high
Whether your rock or country, or blues or funky we’re all make the same inside
Living in fear of later years when nobody’s gonna want you around
Yes the Brothers of the Road all share the same the load and it’ll just about get you down
If you let it it’ll bring you it down

Chorus 2:
You gotta keep on pickin’, You gotta keep on singing
And you try and you try to stay high but you can keep on grinning
You spend a lot of time alone and talking on the phone to the latest love that you found
And cry over the girl you really wanted in your world 
It’ll just about get you down, if you let it it’ll bring you down


Chorus
