Born And Raised

she'd never let anyone ruin my life 
                                  C
but they sure try.
 Dm  F  G


Subsequent verses:

     C                 Am 
The day that I turned 18 my 
  F            G
grandfather told me, he said
  C        Am               F    
"Chris, I think you should join 
     G
the army".
       C                Am        
I said I don't really think that 
    F           G
I'm cut out for that,
        C       Am        F   
no I'm fairly certain I wouldn't 
    G
last.

       C            Am        
But I do agree the benefits are 
    F       G               C
quite astounding, but I know that
   Am              F          
I would throw up if saw someone 
    G       (G7) **
dying.

Chorus – same, but louder
    C     Am          F         
But if I went I would make the 
G      C  Am   F   G
best of ev-ery   moment,
    C       Am          F         
and show respect to my commanding 
 G          C     Am
officer and come home with a
 F          G                    
medal or something cool like 
C  Dm  F  G
that.



Just a few months ago my best friend
 inquired, he said
"Do you think you'll ever go back to
 college?" I said yeah, sure,
eventually when the time is right, 
when I find a university I kinda 
like.
Because I do agree the experience is
 quite enticing, if I don't get
too distracted by all the drinking.

But if I went I would make the best 
of every moment, and pay
attention to the teacher and come 
home with some knowledge or
something great like that.
