[Verse 1]
 C
Sun got it wrong, there's thunder but no rain
               C
And there's a violent need for dancin' on every face
     C
The more a place sleeps the rougher the spirit
          C
Put your ear down to the ground and you can almost hear it


[Chorus]
   F                           C
I wanna crawl right out of my skin
F                                      C
Go back in time, cakewalk and ripped fringe
        F
I want solitude, don't wanna be alone
       F
Wanna put down roots, wanna be a rolling stone
 F                                     C
Hey hey daddy, I got those shakedown blues
 F                                 C
Hey hey daddy, I know you feel it too

[Verse 2]
  C
Speakeasy queen some place faraway
 C
Typewriter on my bar just like Hemingway
   C
I gotta get way gone from this tumbleweed town
      C
Ain't no use in talking when I'm almost out


[Chorus]
   F                           C
I wanna crawl right out of my skin
F                                      C
Go back in time, cakewalk and ripped fringe
        F
I want solitude, don't wanna be alone
       F
Wanna put down roots, wanna be a rolling stone
 F                                     C
Hey hey daddy, I got those shakedown blues
 F                                 C
Hey hey daddy, I know you feel it too


[Outro]
