Aaron Lewis - Northern Redneck chords

[G] Boston's [D] number one for new hit [G] country.
Country [D] 1025.
[D#] I wrote this next song because I've lived in New England my whole life.
The family and people that have surrounded me for all of it have been some of the most
potent, kill-billy people I've ever met.
And it seems like every country song is about southern folks.
And I beg to differ.
I think that there's a lot more of us northern rednecks than anybody [G#] thinks.
So I wrote a song about it because that's what I do.
This song is called Northern Redneck.
[C#]
[F#] [G#]
[B] [C#] We grow tobacco and we drive trucks.
We kill white tails and green-head ducks.
[G#] And drive our four-wheelers down the main road.
And we bust out the sleds when it's cold.
We [C#] got back roads and four-wheel drives.
We got tailgates on a Friday night.
[G#] And it's a half hour from my front door [B] to a Walmart or a [F#] grocery store.
[G#]
[C#] What y'all don't understand
[G#]
[A#m] It ain't all about a southern man.
We [C#] got outlaws, we got hicks.
We [F#] got honky-tonks out in these sticks.
[G#] We love our whiskey and we love our homegrown.
[B] God damn, it's so good [F#] to be home.
We [C#] wear Carhartt, we don't wear suits.
We [F#] wear square toes and Chippewa boots.
[G#] And we all know where we come from.
[B] And we'll be right here when it's done.
[G#]
[A#m] What y'all don't [F#] understand
[B] It ain't all about a [F#] southern man.
We [C#] got family living out in these [F#] woods.
We got pride and a sense of what's good.
[G#] And we all got dirt on our hands.
[B] It's a song for the [F#] working man.
We [C#] get up early and we work third shift.
[F#] Pay our taxes and protect our kids.
[G#] And we all got dirt on our hands.
[B] Cause there's rednecks [F#] north of the Mason [C#]-Dixon.
[A#m] There's rednecks [F#] north of the Mason [G#]-Dixon, yeah.
[A#m]
[G#]
[C#] Cause I'm from the north, son, you're from the south.
[F#] Straight out the trailer, fresh off the [D#] plow.
You [G#] got your Chevy parked next to my Ford.
And the colors [C#] flying high at your door.
I got a shotgun, fill it with shells.
[F#] You got a Bible, but I'll see you in hell.
Ain't [G#] that different, son, you and me.
[B] Trying to make it in [F#] the land of the free.
[G#] [A#m] What y'all [F#] don't understand,
[B] it ain't all about [F#] a southern man.
[C#]
We got family living out in these woods.
We got [F#] pride and a sense of what's good.
[G#] And we all got dirt on our hands.
