Verse 1
(G major) My first (D major) rifle was a (C major) .24 (G major) 3
(E minor) Papa gave (D major) Daddy and Dad (C major) dy gave to (G major) me
And they taught me how to (D major) shoot
with a (C major) steady hand (E minor)
I guess that's (D major) something
you don't (C major) under (G major) stand
Now I grew up (D major) on a (C major) prison farm (G major)
(E minor) Sneaking pulls of (D major) shine from a (C major) mason jar (G major)
Used to go (D major) fishing out (C major) pickle creek (E minor) dam
But I guess that's some (D major) thing
you (C major) don't under (G major) stand
Chorus 1
(C major) Grandmas in the kitch (G major) en
(C major) Papa's (G major) done passed (D major) on
We'd (C major) sit out on the front (G major) porch
Just a- (E minor) pickin' (D major) on the songs (C major)
And there's blood on the (G major) table
'Cause we (C major) work for (G major) what we (D major) have
And I was (E minor) raised (D major) in this (C major) land
I (E minor) guess that's
(D major) something you don't (C major) under (G major) stand

(G major) I still (D major) fly that (C major) southern flag (G major)
(E minor) Whistling (D major) Dixieland e (C major) nough to brag (G major)
And I know all the (D major) words to sim (C major) ple man (E minor)
I guess that's (D major) something
you don't (C major) under (G major) stand
I pledge my al (D major) legiance the o (C major) riginal (G major) way
(E minor) Say Merry (D major) Christmas not (C major) Happy Holi (G major) days
I can't change my ways (D major) I know (C major) who I (E minor) am
I guess that's (D major) something
you don't (C major) under (G major) stand
Chorus 2
(C major) Grandmas in the kitch (G major) en
(C major) Papa's (G major) done passed (D major) on

'Cause we (C major) work for (G major) what we (D major) have
And I was (E minor) raised (D major) in this (C major) land
I (E minor) guess that's
(D major) something you don't (C major) under (G major) stand
Bridge 1
(B flat major) They'll grind us up in a (F major) big machine
(C major) They'll feed us all on the (G major) same beliefs
(B flat major) Holy dol (F major) lar and a credit card (C major)
(B flat major) But we got a way of (F major) doing things
(C major) And no bankers gonna (G major) steal from me
(D major) They wanna tear it all apart
Chorus 3
Grandmas (C major) in the kitch (G major) en
(C major) Papa's (G major) done passed (D major) on
We'd (C major) sit out on the front (G major) porch
Just a- (E minor) pickin' (D major) on the songs (C major)
And there's a bible on the (G major) table
'Cause we (C major) bleed for (G major) what we (D major) have
And that's the (E minor) ballad of a (D major) southern man (C major)
I (E minor) guess that's
(D major) something you don't (C major) under (G major) stand
Outro 1
(G major) My first (D major) rifle was a (C major) .24 (G major) 3
(E minor) Papa gave (D major) Daddy and Dad (C major) dy gave to (G major) me
