Grounded

D D

[Verse 1]
     D                   Bm
Well I've been down... a thousand 
roads
    C               G              
But I still hold on to my hometown 
D
area code
           D                       
'Cause the memories made... And the
 Bm
 lessons learned
     C               G            
Keep one hand on the wheel no 
   D
matter where I turn


[Chorus]
    A                              
I'm glad my daddy took my keys when
     G/E
 he caught me drinkin' beer
    D                          
And I can't blame the coach who 
            A
benched my ass my junior year
    A                              
And don't forget the girl that 
     G/E
broke my heart and wrecked my plans
       D                  A
'Cause they made me who I am
          G                      
From the red dirt on my boots, to 
     A
the red word Gospel truth
     C               G            
I'm tangled in these roots that 
      A
keep me grounded

[Verse 2]
     D                   Bm
When I left home... well I knew it 
all
      C              G            
I was gonna tear the world up like
   D
 a wreckin' ball
         D                         
But the world don't care... what 
   Bm
you think you know
    C             G              
Now every time it hits me like a big
D
 brick wall


[Chorus]
    A                              
I'm glad my daddy took my keys when
     G/E
 he caught me drinkin' beer
    D                          
And I can't blame the coach who 
            A
benched my ass my junior year
    A                              
And don't forget the girl that 
     G/E
broke my heart and wrecked my plans
       D                  A
'Cause they made me who I am
          G                      
From the red dirt on my boots, to 
     A
the red word Gospel truth
     C               G            
I'm tangled in these roots that 
      A
keep me grounded
D


[Bridge]
    A
I'm grounded
         G                D       
Like the tallest pine on top of 
             A
the Blue Ridge mountains
      G              D           A
And I wouldn't wanna be no other way


[Chorus 2]
    A                              
I'm glad my daddy took my keys when
     G/E
 he caught me drinkin' beer
    D                          
And I can't blame the coach who 
            A
benched my ass my junior year
    A                              
everyone along the way who ever 
     G/E
gave a damn
       D                  A
'Cause they made me who I am
          G                      
From the red dirt on my boots, to 
     A
the red word Gospel truth
     C               G            
I'm tangled in these roots that 
      A
keep me grounded
     C                  G         
I'll never leave these roots that 
         A
keep me grounded
