Verse

Gm      Bb          F               C
Hot sun goin' down, heatin' up this little town
Gm                        Bb                F     C
The cows are feed and the plowin's all been done.
Gm          Bb         F                       C
Moon light, fireflies, beer on the bank by the rivverside,
Gm               Bb                 F    C
We're gonna have ourselves a little fun.
D                            C
Dancin' on the tailgates and raisin' a little Cain,
D                           C             F
Rockin' in the pastures and rollin in the hay.


Chorus

               Gm  F  C
It's the life I love,
             F        C        Gm      F  C  Bb
And I'm gonna live it 'til they bury me.
                  Gm  F  C
I can't get enough of,
               F     C              Gm            Bb  F  C
Dirt roads, and dusty fields and the simple things,
D                   F
And I take pride in everything I've got.
          C
'Cause I'm American-born and,
Bb      C               Gm  Bb  F  C  Gm  Bb  F  C
Country by the grace of God.


Verse 2

I dont need no Cadillacs, you cant put no hay bails in the back,
It wont cross a creek or tow no heavy load.
I dont like a high-rise cluttering up my clear blue skies
Dont wanna be where the city's all that grows
Some are born with a silver spoon and some come from a farm,
Some have a ball in the mansion, but we get down in the barn.

D                               C
We build a world of dreams on a big ol' piece of land
D                                        C
We're free to do anything we like, we're country so we can
