[C#]
Well, I grew up down an old dirt [F#] road in a town you wouldn't know
My pops picked the place up for fifteen hundred bucks back in 1964
[C#]
My grandfather was a drinker [F#] back in the day.
He put him down
[B] But a war [F#] is known to change a man and the whiskey is known [C#] to change a man
[B] [F#]
That's not me [C#] I
[B] Rarely drink [F#] from the bottle, but I'll smoke a little weed
[C#] I
[F#] Still live in the sticks where you wouldn't go in a town of twelve [C#] hundred off an old dirt [F#] road
And the country boy is all I'll ever be
[C#]
[B] [F#]
[C#]
Now
It's been 12 years since I sold my [B] soul to the devil [F#] in LA
He said sign your name here on the dotted line and your songs.
They [C#] all will play
He set up shop on Sunset.
[B] He put me up at [F#] the marquee
He said you want to sell a million records boy
Better listen to [C#] me
He [B] said change your [F#] style white in your smile.
You could lose a [C#m] couple pounds and
If [F#] you want to live this life, you'd better lose that wife.
Do you need your [C#] friends around?
And I [B] said
[F#] No, that's not me
[C#] Cuz [F#] the biggest things in life all your friends and family
[C#]
[B] And I like my [F#] jeans and my old t-shirts and a couple extra [C#] pounds never really hurt
[B] Cuz the country [F#] boy is all I'll ever be
[C#]
[B] Cuz Hank taught [F#] me just how to stay [C#] alive
You'll
[B] never catch me out the [F#] house without my 9 or 45 [C#] I
[B] Got a big orange tractor [F#] in a diesel truck [C#] and my idea of heaven is chasing white
Tailboxing [B] as a country boy.
[F#] I know I can [G#] survive
Now
[C#]
two flags fly above my land [B] that really sum up [F#] how I feel
One is the colors that fly high and proud the red the [C#] white the blue
The other ones got a rattlesnake [F#] with a simple statement made
Don't tread on me is what it says and I'll take that to [C#] my grave
[F#] because
This is me
[C#] I'm [B] proud to be American [F#] and strong in my beliefs
[C#] [B] And
I've said it before [F#] but I'll say it again
Cuz I've never needed [C#] government to hold my hand and [B] I've said it [F#] before
But I'll say it again
Cuz my family's always [C#] fought and died to save this land [B] and a country [F#] boy is all I'll ever [C#] be
[F#]
[C#] You
