Verse 1
D 
G 
Dirk
Thornton thinks he's a goose.
Am 
It's all right, though, because we let him.
D 
We all
G 
Bm 
know that gooses don't hurt nobody,
G 
Bm 
except themselves, sometimes.
G 
Of we all do
admit that
Em 
Dirk's a little different.
G 
Long about the first day
of winter every year for
as long as I can remember,
D 
Dirk, like all good gooses,
G 
Bm 
decides to fly south.
Now he
G 
goes home and he packs himself six or eight peanut
D 
G 
butter sandwiches and he puts them
in this brown paper sack.
He kisses his wife and his kids goodbye
and he walks about a
mile and a half from his house and climbs
D 
G 
up to the top of this big hill and he jumps
off.
It's a kind of a beautiful sight to see dirt
D 
come barreling off the top of that hill,
G 
his arms a -flappin' in the breeze,
and the sound of them peanut
butter sandwiches
bangin' around inside that
brown paper bag,
D 
well, I'll tell you,
it'll bring tears to your eyes.
G 
Last winter,
Dirk flew, oh, about six feet
before he went and crashed in those peanut
Bb 
Fdim 
E 
butter sandwiches.
Em 
Dirk
G 
Thornton thinks he's a goose.
It's all right, though,
D 
cause we let him.
