These are the chords for I Always Wanted To by Cody Johnson on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

[Intro]
C  D  G Cadd9 G Em

[Verse 1]
     G
Outside there’s a rusty pickup
Cadd9
..Underneath a shed
      D
Mockingbird’s nest in the tailpipe
        Cadd9                D
Empty feed sack in the bed
G
They took away my keys
        Cadd9
Sayin’ I’m too old to drive
      D
It’s like they’re tryin’ to bury me
       Cadd9           D
While I’m still alive...

[Chorus]
                    G
I always wanted a son
                   Cadd9
I always wanted a woodshed
                     D
I always wanted to ride on 
an open range
                              
And learn how to fly a plane, 
   G       D              
but I guess even pictures 
    G
we never take
                            Cadd9
Memories we’ll never make still fade
                   D
I never did all I wanted to do 
but I always wanted to
G     Cadd9

[Verse 2]
  G
They talk like I can’t hear ’em
       Cadd9
When they have to change my sheets
    D
They’re getting tired and angry
         Cadd9             D
‘Cause I won’t accept defeat...
        G
Uncle Frank lived to be a hundred
         Cadd9
Hell, I’m only ninety five

         D
I ain’t raising no white flag
       Cadd9          D
While I’m still alive...

[Chorus]
                    G
I always wanted a son
                   Cadd9
I always wanted a woodshed
                     D
I always wanted to ride on 
an open range
And learn how to fly a plane, 
   G       D              
but I guess even pictures 
    G
we never take
                            Cadd9
Memories we’ll never make still 
fade
                   D           
I never did all I wanted to do 
                G
but I always wanted to

[Verse 3]
        G
My Marie showed up this morning
       Cadd9
Floatin’ right above that chair
       D
She smiled the sweetest 
smile at me
      G
As she hovered in the air
           G
When that fever stole 
her from me
               Cadd9
I was twenty seven, 
she was just twenty five
         D
I never dreamed I’d see 
my angel again
      Cadd9         D
While I’m still alive..

[Chorus]
                    G
I always wanted a son
                   Cadd9
I always wanted a woodshed
                     D
I always wanted to ride on 
an open range
And learn how to fly a plane, 
   G       D              
but I guess even pictures 
    G
we never take
Memories we’ll never 
       Cadd9
make still fade
                   D
I never did all I wanted 
to do but I always wanted to
G  Cadd9  D

[Outro]
                   D
I never did all I wanted to 
do but I always want?d to
