Verse:
D                           G
Most of the time I'm fairly civilized
D                                A
Try to hide my low class backward ways
D                    G
We both know I wear a thin disguise                          0
            D             A                       DGD  0-2-4-
You've seen my true colors shine as bright as day

Chorus:
D                G              D
You bring out the redneck in me
                  G              A
you know just how crazy I can be
D                        G
I'll cuss 'n I'll fight 'n I'll drink all night
      D               G
Til I lose my dignity,                         0
D                    A              DGD  0-2-4-
when you bring out the redneck in me

Verse:(same pattern as first verse)
Traded in my pickup truck for an suv
bought some khaki pants and burned all my blue jeans
I've tried to join middle class society
I gotta white collar job and a college degree

Chorus:
repeat
Bridge:
(same chords and strum pattern as verse)

Verse:(same pattern as first verse)
My southern accent ain't so hard to hide
I can talk like a yankee when the timing is right
I seldom speak 'bout my rebel pride
unless I'm down in Athens raisin' hell on a friday night

Chrous:
repeat

ending:
D G D    G     D
