Intro:

D  D  D  D

Verse 1:

 D
Sitting on the porch of an A-frame cabin
 G                         D
Breathing in the mountain breeze

Chomping at the bit to hit that river
 G                        A
Running right in front of me

     D
I'm thinking I oughta tie this fly
        G                        D
With a pheasant feather and elk hair

Lord have mercy
        A                   D
It's a cutthroat world out there

Bm               A
I don't mind the 9-to-5
         G                     D
But sometimes, the grind gets old
       Bm                A
So when I burn out, the tug of a trout
    G               D
Is medicine for my soul

        Bm                   A
It's a peace of mind you can only find
    G                    D
Out in the middle of nowhere

   D
So I'm out here
               A                   D     D
'Cause it's a cutthroat world out there

Verse 2:

D         F#m
I grew up cowboy tough
             G                   D
I'm used to bustin' my butt all day

But them money grabbers and damn backstabbers
 G               A
Make it hard to take

      D
Well, I'm alright with a good, clean fight
         G                     D
But the devil, he don't fight fair
                          A                   D
So I thank God there's a cutthroat world out there

Bm               A
I don't mind the 9-to-5
         G                     D
But sometimes, the grind gets old
       Bm                A
So when I burn out, the tug of a trout
    G               D
Is medicine for my soul

        Bm                   A
It's a peace of mind you can only find
    G                    D
Out in the middle of nowhere

   D
So I'm out here
               A                   G
'Cause it's a cutthroat world out theeeeeere

       Bm7                   A
It's a peace of mind you can only find
    G                    D
Out in the middle of nowhere
         Bm                     A
It's the way it feels when you start to reel
        G              D
And it takes off on a tear
D                           A
I'm out here 'cause it's a cutthroat world out there
