Capo 3rd fret
 
 
[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
There's a plot on a hilltop
G
With a little patch of grass
G
Where they'll lay my bones to rest
G
When my time has come to pass
        C
Carve a bible verse and two dates
                                  G
Separated by a dash on a piece of granite
G
Mm-hm-hm
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
I got my name from my daddy
G
And he got his from his
G
And I pray when people hear it
G
They'll remember what I did
        C
With my time on this dirt
                                            G
'Til I'm six feet under it I won't take for granted
G
Every day I get
 
 
[Chorus]
          D       Em
I'll keep working hard
         C           G
But quit chasing the money
        D               Em
Pour my soul in this guitar
     C             G
Then save it evеry Sunday
        D
Wake my wife with a kiss
     Em
Be a rock for my kids
         C                  G
'Til thе good Lord calls me home
          D        Em         C
I'll keep making a name for myself
                    G
'Til they set it in stone
 
 
[Verse 3]
G
I wanna sell out of tickets
G
But never be a sell out
      G/B
Buy a big ol' house in Franklin
G/B
With the porch that wraps around
            C
And if I'll try to count my blessing
C
Hope there's more that I can count
    G
And people call on me 'til they lay me down
 
 
[Chorus]
          D       Em
I'll keep working hard
         C           G
But quit chasing the money
        D               Em
Pour my soul in this guitar
     C             G
Then save it evеry Sunday
        D
Wake my wife with a kiss
     Em
Be a rock for my kids
         C                  G
'Til thе good Lord calls me home
          D        Em         C
I'll keep making a name for myself
                    G
'Til they set it in stone
 
 
[Guitar Solo]
G
  Oh, yeah, yeah
 
 
[Chorus]
          D       Em
I'll keep working hard
         C           G
But quit chasing the money
        D               Em
Pour my soul in this guitar
     C             G
Then save it evеry Sunday
        D
Wake my wife with a kiss
     Em
Be a rock for my kids
         C                  G
'Til thе good Lord calls me home
          D        Em         C
I'll keep making a name for myself
              D        Em         C
Oh, I'll keep making a name for myself
                    G
'Til they set it in stone
