INTRO



G
Legend has it years ago,

A sound was born and began to grow.
                                 C
Old Tex and Buddy showed the way,
      G
And a brand new beat was here to stay.



G
Miles around you could hear it comin',

Steel guitars and a flat pick strummin'.
                                         C
And it told the story of the workin' man,
        G
And the beat spread out across the land.



    C                G
The western beat is alive and kickin',
D              G
Carrying on an age old tradition.
    C                         G      Em
The good old boys are turnin' up the heat,
        F                       C            G
And the house is shakin' to the western beat.



   G
So come on boys, rosin up the bow,
                                             
There's fire in the fiddle and the old banjo.
                                   C
Stoke it 'til you can hold it down,
G                        
Serve it up at the speed of sound.



    C                G
The western beat is alive and kickin',
D              G
Carrying on an age old tradition.
    C                         G      Em
The good old boys are turnin' up the heat,
        F                       C
And the house is shakin' to the western beat.



G     
INSTRUMENTAL


 
         G
Well the western beat is a freight train comin',

Across the land like a diesel hummin'.
                                          C
And it tells the story of the workin' man,
        G              
You can still hear it ringin' out across the land.



         C                G
Yeah the western beat is alive and kickin',
D              G
Carrying on an age old tradition.
    C                         G      Em
The good old boys are turnin' up the heat,
         C                G
Yeah the western beat is alive and kickin',
D              G
Carrying on an age old tradition.
    C                         G      Em
The good old boys are turnin' up the heat,
        F                        C            G
And the country's shakin' to the western beat.
