STILL AROUND
by Jerry Jeff Walker
D D7 D6 D
Woke up today, rain comin� down,
D D7 D6 D
wonderin� where all my friends are now.
Em7 A D
They�re not around, no they�re not in town
D D7 D6 D
Used to be me on my way,
D D7 D6 D
now I�m the one who sits and stays,
Em7 A D
and lays em down, & kicks the blues around.
G Bm7Em7 A D
When those old blues come rollin� �round, rainy days,
G Bm7 Em7 A D
How they call you, come on son, slip away.
G Bm7 Em7 A Bm A G
I�ve been everywhere there is to get up and get down in town,
Em7 A
and I guess I finally found,
D
I like it right here and now.
Saw my old friend, Jimmy Day,
He laughed when he saw all the gray.
He said, "Hey, you�re still around, its good to see you�re still in town."
"�Cause I know how they try and push you �round,
but man they can�t keep good music down,
no, it goes around, and it comes around."
So when those old blues come rollin� �round, rainy days,
And they call you, come on son, slip away,
We�ve been everywhere there is to get up and get down in town,
well I guess we finally found,
Its good to be here and now.
Yeah, right here and now.
And I guess I finally found, I like it here and now
�Cause I don�t care if that sun don�t shine
Now I�m living on my own time,
Like you say
I like it anyway
So when those old blues come rollin� �round, I don�t play.
Hell, they call you, come on son, slip away,
We�ve been everywhere there is to get up and get down in town
and I guess I finally found, I like it right here and now.
