• Capo on 1st

Verse 1:
 G+G
I grew up in the country

   Cadd9Cadd9          D MajorD
Six kids in a two room shack

 Cadd9Cadd9             G+G
Soon as I learned those three chords

  D MajorD     Cadd9Cadd9      G+G
I had a guitar on my back

 G+G
I wanted to carry a football

   Cadd9Cadd9             D MajorD
That dream came and went real soon

 Cadd9Cadd9               G+G
Made it through two years of college

    D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
Thank God I could carry a tune

 Cadd9Cadd9     G+G        D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
Nah nah, yeah-eh, thank God, I could carry a tune

Chorus:
      Cadd9Cadd9         G+G
I've known love, I've known pain

       E minorEm        D MajorD
Got a little rusty in the rain

      Cadd9Cadd9         G+G
I've been lost, I've been found

      E minorEm             D MajorD
I left my mark on my little bitty town

Yeah, raised me a few good babies

 E minorEm            D MajorD
Raised me a whole lotta hell

   Cadd9Cadd9         G+G
And if I ever get to heaven

 G+G
I drank a lot of cheap whiskey

 Cadd9Cadd9          D MajorD
Shut down too many bars

 Cadd9Cadd9           G+G
Low as a dog in the valley

   D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
And high as the Carolina stars

 G+G
I've kissed some girls, still missed some girls

   Cadd9Cadd9            D MajorD
Most beautiful you've ever seen

Some pages I wish I could tear out

    Cadd9Cadd9           G+G
Well I ain't gonna tell no lie

    Cadd9Cadd9          G+G
'Cause it's a story of my life


      G+G
No I can't preach or give no advice
