Chords for Merle Haggard - I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am (Live)

Mr.
Burrow, 1, 2, 3, [C] 4.
_ [Em] _ _ [Am] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ [Am] _
_ [C] Things [Dm] I learned in a Hobart jungle
Were things they never [G] taught me [C] in a classroom
[Em] _ [Am] Like _ [C] _ [Dm] where to find a handout
_ While bumming through [G]
Chicago [C] in the [Em] afternoon
[Am] I'm _ [C] _ not bragging or complaining
I'm just talking to myself, [F] man to [Dm] man _ _ _ _
This old mental [G] fad I'm cheering
Didn't take a lot of doing
But I take a lot of pride in what [C] I am
[Em] I [Am] _
_ [C] _ [Dm] guess I grew up alone
I don't remember [G] ever having [C] any folks around
[Em] [Am] But _ [C] _ [Dm] I keep thumbing through the phone books
_ And looking for [G] my daddy's [C] name in every town
[Em] _ [Am] _
_ [C] I made lots of friendly people
But I always wind up leaving [F] on the land
[Dm] _ Where _ _ I've been or [G] where I'm going
[Dm] Didn't take [G] a lot of knowing
[D] But I take a [G] lot of pride in [C] what I am
[Em] I [Am] _
_ [C] _ never [Dm] travel in a hurry
_ Cause I got [G] nobody waiting [C] for me in a [Em] hurry
_ [Am] _
_ [C] _ [Dm] Home is anywhere I'm living
_ If it's sleeping on [G] some vacant [C] bench in City [Em] Square
[Am] Or _ if [C] I'm working on some road game
Just living off the side of [Dm] our great land
_ I've _ _ never been [G] nobody's idol
[Dm] But at least I [G] got a title
[Dm] And I take a [G] lot of pride in [C] what I am
[Em] _ _ [Am] _
_ I've [Dm] never been [G] nobody's idol
But at least I got a title
[Dm] And I take a [G] lot of pride in [C] what I am
[Am]
I _ _ [C] _ [Dm] take a lot [G] of pride in what [C] I am
[Em]
I [Am] _ _ _ [Dm] take a lot of [G] pride in what [C] I am
[Em] _ _ [Am] _ _ [C] _ _ _
