Verse 1:
       A                         G
Well I come from a little bitty, homegrown small town,
C                     D
Smoky Mountains, nice place to hang around.
A          G
Moonshine, that's where they make it,
D
Put it in a jug, makes you wanna get naked.
A                           G
But I jumped on a greyhound bus one night
C                              D
And took it all the way to the end of the line.
        A                G
Stepped down in the sun, when my feet hit the sand
D
What a long strange trip

Chorus:
           A          G              D
I spent my whole life running around (running around)
              A          G              D
Still let the wind kinda blow me around
                 A         G
Well I dropped a note in a bottle
     D
To a long-legged model
      A                  G
And I traded it in for a whole 'nother world
  D
A pirate flag and an island girl

Verse 2:
        A                            G
Well my friends back home think I've gone and lost my mind
C                         D
Take a sip of rum and you really would know why
A                         G
Jolly Roger flying on the picnic table
D
Blender in the kitchen, willin' and able
      A                       G
Don't know what makes you say "What the hell"
             C                  D
But when the salt air catches a hold of that sail
A                             G
Something 'bout her makes you just wanna dance
D
And she loves to dance

Chorus:
           A          G              D
I spent my whole life running around (running around)
              A          G              D
Still let the wind kinda blow me around
                 A         G
Well I dropped a note in a bottle
     D
To a long-legged model
      A                        G
And I traded it in for a whole 'nother world
  D
A pirate flag and an island girl

Bridge:
  C
I remember back home 'neath the big ol' moon
         D
Talking 'bout the new world and life was good
C                               D
But here we are in a local bar drinkin' shootin' stars

Chorus:
                 A          G              D
I might spend my whole life running around (running around)
              A          G              D
Still let the wind kinda blow me around
                 A         G
Well I dropped a note in a bottle
