Standard Tuning
(I will have to wait until the album to comes out to fine tune the song,
but from what I watched on youtube, this appears to be the easiest way to play this song.
Feel free to change it up and make it your own by throwing in some hammer-on's and pull-off's,
adding rundowns, fill-ins, and alternating bass notes.
I hope you like this song as much as I do. -CT )
Intro: D G....D G
(Verse 1)
D G
Our houses are protected by the good Lord and a gun
D G
And you might meet 'em both if you show up here not welcome son
D G
Our necks are burnt, the roads are dirt and our trucks ain't clean
D G
The dogs run loose, we smoke, we chew and fry everything
D G
Out Here, Way out here
(Chorus)
D G
We won't take a dime if we ain't earned it
D G
When it comes to weight, brother we pull our own
D G
If it's our backwoods ways of livin' you're concerned with
A
Then you can leave us alone
Bm A G
It's all about John Wayne, Johnny Cash and John Deere
D G
Way out here
(Verse 2)
D G
We've got a fighting side a mile wide but we pray for peace
D G
Cause it's mostly us that end up serving over seas
D G
Hell if it was up to me I'd love to see this Country run
D G
Like it used to be, like it ought to be and just like it's done
D G
Out here, way out here
(Chorus)
D G
'Cause we won't take a dime if we ain't earned it
D G
When it comes to weight, brother we pull our own
D G
If it's our backwoods ways of livin' you're concerned with
A
Then you can leave us alone
Bm A G
It's all about John Wayne, Johnny Cash and John Deere
D G
Way out here
(Repeat Chorus Again)
D G
Our houses are protected by the good Lord and a gun
D G
And you might meet 'em both if you show up here not welcome son

-countryboy233 | 2/20/2010 | Thanks.
-curtist17 | 2/21/2010 | awesome job but one slight change. if you drop you low E string to drop D tuning that D chord really has a full sound and i believe that is what josh does as well.
-Spots | 7/11/2010 | He is playing the song in Drop D tuning. Chords are correct but fingerings change considerably in drop D. Give it a try.
-redraider96 | 7/28/2010 | if fingering for the chords are different would you mind posting fingering changes
-tuskfire8 | 8/4/2010 | Tune low E string down to D
D - 000232 (this gives a very full D chord - sounds kind of outlaw'ish)
G - 5X0033
Bm - X24432
A- same as standard
BTW, other common fingerings for Drop D
E - 222100
Em - 222000
F - 303211
Another G - 020003 (I don't think it sounds as good as 5X0033)
-redraider96 | 8/6/2010 | If you use DROP D tuning then how do you make a G chord?? Thanks !
-KevinEllis | 8/9/2010 | I think he uses both G chrods in the song, but it is definitly Drop D tuning. don't forget the hormonics on 7 going into first chorus. On the 020003 G that he plays, sounds like there is some hammer-ons on the A string, so one strum would look like this maybe...
D 0
A 0h2
D 0
G 0
B 0
E 3
anyone agree with that
Hammer on on the D chrod is on the G string, mix it in here and there, it sounds good.
-Dacravens | 8/24/2010 | can someone please help me with the strum pattern? I just cannot see all the licks or hear them all for some reason. Thanks in advance for your assistance!
-masononyx | 9/25/2010 | There's usually more than one guitar in a band, don't try to do everything, in fact, it probably sounds better the less of that stuff you try to pull off, if your playing alone.
