tailgate blues

i catch my buzz in the black of night

where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows

if i loose my cool in the open and it shows

that i'm down and i ain't alright

i search my soul where there is no moon

the trees all cross and are covered in moss

if the crickets wanna know then i'll tell them what i lost

oh

i got the tailgate blues

i ain't sure were it all began

somewhere 'round here i know

this bridge was a little more crowded then

i was playing her a tailgate show

and now i'm just sittin' here alone

to catch my buzz in the black of night

where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows

if i loose my cool in the open and it shows

that i'm down and i ain't alright

i search my soul where there is no moon

the trees all cross and are covered in moss

if the crickets wanna know then i'll tell them what i lost

oh i've got the tailgate blues

damn that am radio

for playing more than a song

my heart won't beat if the strings are broke

the melody's hittin' me wrong

right here where she belongs

i catch my buzz in the black of night

where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows

if i loose my cool in the open and it shows

that i'm down and i ain't alright

i search my soul where there is no moon

the trees all cross and are covered in moss

if the crickets wanna know then i'll tell them what i lost

oh

i got the tailgate blues

the crickets heard my story and i listened to em sing

i guess i'll close the tailgate up

there ain't no telling what tomorrow might bring

maybe me and a dixie cup

but that won't be enough. yes i catch my buzz in the black of night

where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows

if i loose my cool in the open and it shows

that i'm down and i ain't alright

i search my soul where there is no moon

the trees all cross and are covered in moss

if the crickets wanna know then i'll tell them what i lost

oh

i got the tailgate blues

i catch my buzz in the black of night

where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows

if i loose my cool in the open and it shows

that i'm down and i ain't alright
