Boondocks

D
I feel no shame
D
I'm proud of where I came from
      C        G           
I was born and raised in the 
      D
boondocks
D
One thing I know
D
No matter where I go
          C         G         
I keep my heart and soul in the 
      D
boondocks


[Verse 1]

          Am
And I can feel
     C                             
That muddy water running through my
 D
 veins
          Am        C          
And I can hear that lullaby of a 
           D
midnight train
   C                  G
It sings to me and it sounds 
familiar


[Chorus]

D
I feel no shame
D
I'm proud of where I came from
      C        G           
I was born and raised in the 
      D
boondocks
D
One thing I know
D
No matter where I go
          C         G         
I keep my heart and soul in the 
      D
boondocks


[Verse 2]

          Am
And I can taste
     C                             
That honeysuckle and it's still so 
D
sweet
        Am
When it grows wild
Continues after the ad
C                             D
On the banks down at old camp creek
             C                  G
Yeah, and it calls to me like a warm
 wind blowing


[Chorus]

D
I feel no shame
D
I'm proud of where I came from
      C        G           
I was born and raised in the 
      D
boondocks
D
One thing I know
D
No matter where I go
          C         G         
I keep my heart and soul in the 
      D
boondocks


[Bridge]

G                          D
It's where I learned about living
G                          D
It's where I learned about love
G                          D
It's where I learned about working 
hard
    C                   G
And having a little was just enough
G                          D
It's where I learned about Jesus
G                   D
And knowing where I stand
G                    D       C
You can take it or leave it, this is
 me
G            D
This is who I am


[Solo]

D - D - C - G - D

(Pre-chorus - I enjoy strumming the 
chords lightly through this even 
though the
 song only has one or two strums per
 chord)


[Verse 3]

          Am
Give me a tin roof
  C                    D
A front porch and a gravel road
           C
And that's home to me
              G
It feels like home to me


[Chorus]

D
I feel no shame
D
I'm proud of where I came from
      C        G           
I was born and raised in the 
      D
boondocks
D
One thing I know
D
No matter where I go
          C         G         
I keep my heart and soul in the 
      D
boondocks

          C         G         
I keep my heart and soul in the 
      D
boondocks


N.C. (1st time around)

You get a line, I'll get a pole
We'll go fishing in the crawfish 
hole
Five-card poker on a Saturday night
Church on Sunday morning

(2nd time has light single strums, 
3rd time play these chords)

D
You get a line, I'll get a pole
C                       G
We'll go fishing in the crawfish 
hole
(Down in the boondocks)

D
Five-card poker on a Saturday night
C         G      D
Church on Sunday morning
