Tennessee Cifra

[Verse 1]
E                 D
I was raised on a Tennessee hillside
A                             D
Where blackberry bushes grow thick (Grow thick)
E                           D
With feet like the soul of a workin' man's boot
A                                D
And a head like a weight made of lead
E                                   D
Crooked grin, thorn stickin' out my shoulder
A                    D
Hair too damn long, oh well (Oh well)
E                              D
They tell me take a break, I'm sorry I can't
A                             D
Tennesseans make music year 'round (Year round)
 
[Chorus]
E             D       A                     D
I can't help it, God put me in a place of green
E               D          A                D
Even the tractors got the same damn color paint
E                             D
Same ol' rivers and same ol' streams
                  A                D
Cut that exhaust off, son, let it scream
               E                        D
God bless the south, I'll never shut my mouth
A                         D
And I'm proud to be from Tennessee
E       D   A
Tennessee, Tennessee
D                        E      D A D
I'm proud to be from Tennessee, mmm
 
[Verse 2]
E                         D
My favorite shirt has the arms cut out
A                          D
With a couple old tobacco stains (Tobacco stains)
E                                        D
I've burnt up every Kenny Chesney album drinkin' Coors Light (Drinkin' Coors Light)
A                   D
Been sunburnt on a lake (On a lake)
E                    D
And I wanna know how forever feels (Forever feels)
A                      D
But not in no hall of fame (Hall of fame)
E                                  D
'Cause I'll always be in a holler with the workin' man (Workin' man)
A                                D
And that's somethin' nobody can take (Nobody can take)
 
[Chorus]
E             D       A                     D
I can't help it, God put me in a place of green
E               D          A                D
Even the tractors got the same damn color paint
E                             D
Same ol' rivers and same ol' streams
                  A                D
Cut that exhaust off, son, let it scream
               E                        D
God bless the south, I'll never shut my mouth
A                         D
And I'm proud to be from Tennessee
E       D   A
Tennessee, Tennessee
D                        E
I'm proud to be from Tennessee
