I've been trying to play this thing for hours. Can't even find the
right key. It's well hidden in all the orchestration. I know it's
centers around D. The song was written by Bruce Springsteen but I
didn't find it under his name. So, if anybody wants to try arranging it
for guitar alone...... It was hard enough understanding the words.
Chesney sounds like he's got a really bad cold on this one.

One Step Up Kenny Chesney
CD No Shirt, No Shoes, No Problem
Written By Bruce Springsteen
Woke up this morning the house was cold
Checked the furnace she wasn't burning
Went out and hopped in my old Ford
But the engine buddy, she ain't a'turnin
Giving each other some hard lessons lately
But we ain't learnin'
Same sad story that's a fact
One step up and two steps back
Bird on a wire outside my motel room
But he ain't singing
Girl in white outside a church in June
But the church bells, they ain't a'ringin
I'm sitting' here in this bar tonight
And all I'm thinkin' is
Ah, same old story same old act
One step up and two steps back
Break:
It's the same thing night on night
Who's wrong and baby who's right
Another fight and I slammed the door
Another battle in our dirty little war
When I look at myself I don't see
The man I wanted to be
Somewhere along the line I slipped off track
Mivin' one step up and two steps back
Break:
There's a girl across the bar
I get the message she's sendin'
Mmmmmm, she ain't looking too married
Maybe, but honey, I'm pretending
Last night I dreamed I held you in my arms
The music was never ending
We danced as the evening sky faded to black
Moving one step up and two steps back
one step up and two steps back (4 times)
Ah, baby we're groovin
Outro:
one step up and two steps back (4 times)
