redneck life Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Gm][C][G][Gm]

[Verse 1]
[Gm]I grew up in
a batten board cabin
At the dead end of [C]a gravel [Dm]street[D]
I got my first payin' job
when I turned ten
'Cause money didn't [Dm]grow on [Gm]trees
Cheap cigarettes with the windows up
Was just part of the air I [D]breathed[C]
I didn't choose the red[G]neck life
The [Dm]redneck life [D]chose [G]me[Gm]
I love that, boys

[Verse 2]
Yeah, me [Gm]and my daddy
built my first car
Strung the mo[G]tor up in a [D]tree
We wore the beer box helmets
with the eyes cut out
Rat racing them [Dm]junkyard [Gm]dreams
Yeah, me and my crew, man, we grew up
On Hank [C]Jr. 83
I didn't choose the red[Gm]neck [G]life
No, the [D]redneck life chose [G]me

[Verse 3]
[Gm]Yeah, I didn't choose the redneck [G]life
The redneck life chose [D]me
What you see is what you get
And what you get is what you [Gm]see[G]
I'd take a Mountain Dew
over a silver [Gm]spoon
Any ol' day of [G]the [C]week
I didn't choose [Gm]the red[G]neck life
[D]The redneck life chose [G]me
Oh get on [Gm]it son[G][Gm][G]

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][Gm]
[D][G][Gm][C][G]
[Gm][G][D][G][Gm]

[Verse 4]
Now I [G]grew up swimming
[Gm]in cut- [C]off [Gm]jeans
Down at the bridge [G]at the castor [D]creek
We bent our half bills as far as
we could bend them
We spent the fall sittin'
high in [Gm]a tree
Yeah, huntin' [G]and fishin'
wasn't [Gm]just a trend
It was what we [G]did to [C]eat
I didn't choose the [G]redneck life
[D]The redneck life chose me
[G]

[Verse 5]
[Gm]Yeah, I didn't choose
the [G]redneck life
The redneck life chose [D]me
What you see is what you get
And what you get is what you [G]see
I'd take a Mountain Dew
over a silver [Gm]spoon
Any ol' day of [G]the [C]week
I didn't choose the red[G]neck life
The [D]redneck life chose [G]me
[Gm]Woah!
