Aaron Lewis - Country boy

Now,^Dsus2 I grew up down an old dirt road in a ^Cadd9town you wouldn't k^G6now My^Cadd9 pop's picked the place up for fifteen h^G6undred bucks back in^Cadd9 1964 ^Dsus2 My gran^Dsus2dfather was a drinker, back in the^Cadd9 day, he put him d^G6own But a^Cadd9 war is known to c^G6hange a man and the ^Cadd9whiskey's known to ^Dsus2change a man, but ^{Cadd9 G6}

That's not ^Cadd9me ^Dsus2 I rarely ^Cadd9drink from the bottle but I'll s^G6moke a little w^Cadd9eed ^Dsus2 I still ^Cadd9live in the sticks where you w^G6ouldn't go In a ^Cadd9town of twelve hundred off an ^Dsus2old dirt road And a ^Cadd9country boy is ^G6all I'll ever b^Cadd9e ^Dsus2

Now, it’s ^Dsus2been twelve years since I sold my soul to the ^Cadd9devil in L^G6.A. He said ^Cadd9sign your name here on the do^G6tted line and your ^Cadd9songs, they all will ^Dsus2play He ^Dsus2set up shop on Sunset, he put me ^Cadd9up at the Marq^G6uee He ^Cadd9said "you want to sell a million ^G6records boy, you better ^Cadd9listen to ^Dsus2me" He said "^Cadd9change your style, whi^G6ten your smile, you can ^Cadd9lose a couple p^Dsus2ounds If you ^Cadd9want to live this life, you better ^G6lose that wife, do you ^Cadd9need your friends ar^Dsus2ound?" And I said, no^Cadd9, ^G6

That's not ^Cadd9me ^Dsus2 Cause the ^Cadd9biggest things in life are your ^G6friends and fam^Cadd9ily ^Dsus2 And I ^Cadd9like my jeans and my ^G6old t-shirts And a ^Cadd9couple extra pounds never ^Dsus2really hurt 'Cause a ^Cadd9country boy is ^G6all I'll ever b^Cadd9e ^Dsus2

'Cause ^FHank taught me just ^Ghow to stay ali^Dve You'll never ^Fcatch me out the house without my .^G9 or .4^D5 I got a ^Fbig orange tractor and a ^Gdiesel truck And ^Cmy idea of heaven is chasing ^Dwhitetail bucks And as a ^Fcountry boy, I ^Gknow I can surv^Aive

Now, ^Dsus2two flags fly above my land that really ^Cadd9sum up how I ^G6feel ^Cadd9One is the colors that fly ^G6high and proud, the ^Cadd9red, the white, the ^Dsus2blue The ^Dsus2other one's got a rattlesnake with a ^Cadd9simple statement ^G6made "Don't ^Cadd9Tread On Me" is ^G6what is says and I'll ^Cadd9take that to my ^Dsus2grave Because ^{Cadd9 G6}

This is m^Cadd9e ^Dsus2 Proud to ^Cadd9be American and ^G6strong in my be^Cadd9liefs ^Dsus2 And I've ^Cadd9said it before but I'll ^G6say it again 'Cause I've ^Cadd9never needed government to ^Dsus2hold my hand And I've ^Cadd9said it before but I'll ^G6say it again 'Cause my ^Cadd9family's always fought and died to ^Dsus2save this land And a ^Cadd9country boy is ^G6all I'll ever b^Cadd9e ^Dsus2
