(F major) (G major) (C major)
Verse 1
Well, we (C major) grew up down (G major) by the (A minor) railroad (G major) tracks,
shootin' (F major) bibis at old beer cans (C major)
Chokin' on the (G major) smoke from a (A minor) Lucky Strike
(G major) somebody (F major) lifted off his old man (C major)
We were football (G major) flunkies,
(A minor) southern rock (G major) junkies,
(F major) crankin' up the stereo (C major)
Singing loud and proud (G major) to
"Gimmie (A minor) Three (G major) Steps,"
"Simple (F major) Man," and "Curtis Low" (C major)

(A minor) holler 'bout a (G major) bad call,
(F major) preacher breaking up the fight (C major)
Then later on (G major) at the (A minor) Green Light (G major) tavern,
