[Intro] Play Riff Part 1 Then Riff Part 2
D C G D Riff 1
My grandmother owned a nightclub, on the Arkansas Oklahoma line__________
Ax2 G
Mama put me on a Greyhound, and I went to stay with her in the summer time, I'd box up those empty long-
C D Riff 1 D
Necks, and stack 'em in the back and make a hand? ________Then at night
C G D Riff 1
she'd let me sneak out, Of the kitchen and let me sit in with the band ________
D C G D Riff 1
Yes, I have sacks and quarterbacks, broke my share of bones along the way ______
D Ax2 G
I knew it wouldn't last forever, Semi-pro always means semi-payed I started climbing drilling rigs
C G D Riff 1 D
I'm oil field trash and proud as I can be ______yeah Then I took my songs
C G D Riff 1
And guitar, And sang 'em to a man from Tennessee _______
[Chorus]
G C G D
I've played every beer joint tavern, From New York City out to Pasadena, Every corn dog fair and rodeo, And
A7 F C G D
Sold out every basketball arena, Like to get down with my boys, In Afghanistan and Baghdad City too
G D F C G D
____I am a red, white and blue blood Graduate of Honky Tonk U

A star can't burn forever, And the brightest ones will someday lose their shine, But the glass won't ever be

Half empty in my optimistic mind, I'll still have a song to sing, And a band to turn it up and play it loud
