Tonart: B major•
Verse 1
C#m
Now, I grew up down an old dirt road

in a town you wouldn't know

My Pops picked the place up
F#
for fifteen hundred bucks
B
C#m
back in nineteen- sixty- four
Verse 2
C#m
My grandfather was a drinker,
B
F#
back in the day, he put 'em down
B
F#
But a war is known to change a man
B
C#m
and the whiskey's known to change a man
Chorus 1
B
F#
But
B
C#m
that's not me
B
I rarely drink from the bottle
F#
B
C#m
but I'll smoke a little weed
B
I still live in the sticks
F#
where you wouldn't go
B
In a town of twelve hundred
C#m
off an old dirt road
F#
B
C#m
is all I'll ever be
Verse 3
C#m
Now, its been twelve years
since I sold my soul

to the devil in L. A.
B
He said sign your name here
B
C#m
and your songs, they all will play
Verse 4
C#m
He set up shop on Sunset,
B
F#
he put me up at the Marquee
B
He said "You want to sell
F#
a million records boy,
B
C#m
you better listen to me"
B
He said "Change your style,
B
C#m
you could lose a couple o' pounds
B
And if you want to live this life,
F#
you better lose that wife,
B
C#m
do you need your friends around?"
Chorus 2
B
F#
And I said,
B
C#m
no, that's not me
B
'Cause the biggest things in life
F#
B
C#m
are your friends and family
B
F#
And I like my jeans and my old t-shirts
B
C#m
And a couple extra pounds never really hurt
F#
B
C#m
is all I'll ever be
Bridge 1
E
'Cause Hank taught me just
F#
C#m
how to stay alive
E
You'll never catch me out the house
F#
C#m
without my .9 or .45
E
F#
I got a big orange tractor and a diesel truck
C#m
And my idea of heaven is chasing
whitetail bucks
F#
G#
I know I can survive
Verse 5
C#m
Now, two flags fly above my land
B
F#
that really sum up how I feel
B
F#
One is the colors that fly high and proud,
B
C#m
the red, the white, the blue
Verse 6
C#m
The other one's got a rattlesnake
B
F#
with a simple statement made
B
F#
"Don't Tread On Me" is what it says
B
C#m
and I'll take that that to my grave
Chorus 3
B
F#
Because
B
C#m
this is me
B
I'm proud to be American
F#
B
C#m
and strong in my beliefs
B
F#
And I've said it it before but I'll say it again
B
'Cause I've never needed
C#m
government to hold my hand
B
F#
And I've said it before but I'll say it again
B
C#m
'Cause my family's always fought and died
to save this land
F#
B
C#m
is all I'll ever be
B
C#
Outro 1
[Battle Hymn of the Rebublic]
C#
(I love my country, I love my guns,
I love my family
I love the way it is now,
and anybody that tries to change it
Has to come through me,
that should be all our attitudes
'Cause this is America and a country boy
is good enough for me, son)
