Verse 1
 E                                  G#m
We work in the factories and the fields

   A               E                    B
Assembly lines, cold mines and the steel mills

        E                                        G#m
That's what we do but thereâ??s more to us than that

        A                     E                 B              E
If you want to know who we are it's on the logos of our caps


Chorus
       E                         G#m
We're mountaineer. We're volunteers.

                     A                  E
We're the tide that rolls. We're Seminole

           C#m                  B
We're the herd, a longhorn steer

          E                                  G#m
We drive Ford and Chevrolet. Cheer twenty-four and eighty-eight

     A                 E              B
And we crank up our music Friday nights

        A                                       B                                 E
On two thousand country stations, yeah we're one big country nation - that's right

Verse 2
          E                             G#m
We might fix your water pump or your AC

     A                  E                   B
And bring your apple pie and fill your glass of tea

       E                                 G#m
We'll take that FedEx package to your door

     A                 E               B    E
But underneath that apron or that uniform



Chorus
       E                      G#m
We´re Wildcats. We're Wolverines.

       A                   E                   C#m                B
We're Tigers, Buckeyes, Bruins, Bulldogs, Hawks and Hurricanes

    E                               G#m
We pray before we race and cheer fourteen or forty-eight

     A                   E                B
And we drink ice cold beer on Friday nights

             A                 B                 E
Yeah, we're one big country nation - that's right



Bridge
       A                C#m                B             E          A
We're all across the map, down city streets and old dirt roads

           C#m                B                                    E
We're the fabric of this nation - and we're a nation on our own

We're mountaineer. We're volunteers.

      A                   E
Blue Devils, Heels and Rebels

          C#m               B
Fighting Irish and Cavaliers

         E                                G#m
We soup up our Chevrolets cheer twenty-four and forty-eight

     A                 E                   B
And we crank up the same songs Friday night

        A                                       B                                 E
On two thousand country stations, yeah we're one big country nation - that's right



Outro
    Emaj7 E Emaj7 E | G#m#5 G#m G#m#5 G#m | A E | B |
| E Emaj7 E Emaj7 E | G#m#5 G#m G#m#5 G#m | A E | B |


Notes
In the intro/outro the two first chords alternates over the two notes e and d#.
The first chord is an E, so that means it alternates between E and Emaj7.
I hear the second chord as a G#m, so it alternates between weird chord that I wrote as G#m#5 and G#m.
But you're really just playing the same two notes over both chords.

On the album Brad plays a lead guitar with those notes (and a couple more) but if you want to play
this as chords I find it playable and okay sounding around a barre in the 4th fret with these chords:

E     - x76454
Emaj7 - x76444
G#m#5 - 4x6454
G#m   - 466444
