(Verse)
I grew up (D) on the back of a Piedmont pine stand, (G)strumming on (F)guitar (D)strings
Till (D)one day I figured that I might ought to figure (A) out how to play and sing
I strummed (D)three-chord songs all night long on the (G)back of a (F)farm pond (D)bank
I was (D)raised on the good words of Waylon and (A) brought up (F) on Hank (D)
(Verse)
Them old (A)songs about (D)trotting lines (A) and (D)coal (A)mines and (G)chewing on the (F)hickory twig (D)
In this world that I (D)despise, (A) Ifm just (D)trying to live life the same (G)way that my granddad (D)did
My songs (D)might be missing two (C)old boys kissing, but they (G)ainft going to (F)miss that soul (D)
Of a young (D) man living in a (C)world thatfs forgetting all the (A)things that the (F)good Lord (D)told
(Verse)
But on the (D)dark side of the (G)mountain, therefs a little place I go and hide (D) / / / (D) /
Where you run two hours down a (A)two-lane road / / / | (A) /
You drop her down in four-wheel (D) drive
When Ifm deep down in that (Bm)valley
This old world, it spins (D)so slow
Like I can almost hear a voice (A)
Saying, gSon, the Lordfs about to call some folks on homeh (D) / / / (D) / / /

(Outro.)
Well, wefre all just some (D)big bags of bones
That are (D)glued to our phones and s**t thatfs wrecking our (A)health
In this (A)age of false idols, therefs pages of Bibles collecting dust on a shelf (D)
Brother, when you get that (D)time machine going
Please sign me up, cause I (D)want off this ride that Ifm (G)on
Where we all get (D)Dumber by the minute and (A)weaker by the day
With (G)many more days (F) left to come (D) / (C) / (G) - - - (F) - - - (D) - - - - -
