Down the road a mile or two
-3* -3*-3* -3* -3* 3 -2 -3 -3*
Lives a lit-tle girl named Pear-ly Blue
4 -5 -5 -5 -3* -5 -3* 3
A-bout so high her hair is brown
-3* -5 -5 -5 -5
The pret-ti-est thing,
-3* -2 -3 -3*
Boys, in this town
-3*-3*-3* -2 -3* -3* 3
An-y-time you want to know
-3* -3* -3* 3 -2 -3 -3*
Where I’m go-ing, down the road
4 -5 -5 -5 -5 -3* 3
Just get my girl on the line
-3* -5 -5 -5 -3* -2-3 -3*
You’ll find me there most an-y time
-3*-3* -3* -2 -3* -3* 3
Ev-‘ry-day and Sun-day too
-3*-3*-3* 3 -2 -3 -3*
I go see that Pear-ly Blue
4 -5 -5 -5 -3* -5 -3* 3
Be-fore you hear that roos-ter crow
-3* -5 -5 -5 -3* -2 -3 -3*
You’ll see me head-in’ down the road
-3* -3* -3* -2 -3* -3* 3
Old man Flatt he owned a farm
-3* -3* -3* 3 -2 -3 -3*
From the hog lot to the barn
4 -5 -5 -5 -5 -3* 3
And from the barn to the rail
-3* -5 -5 -5 -5
He made his liv-in’
-3* -2 -2 -3 -3 -3*
by car-ry-in’ the mail
-3*-3* -3* -2 -3* -3* 3
Ev-‘ry time I get the blues
-3*-3* -3* -3* 3 -2 -3 -3*
I walk the soles right off my shoes
4 -5 -5 -5 -3* -5 -3* 3
I don’t know why I love her so
-3* -5 -5 -5 -3* -2 -3 -3*
That gal of mine lives down the road
