[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G][D][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Branded an outlaw
They [C]label [D]me [G]'white trash'
I ain't ever [D]seen a silver [C]spoon
[G]Mama loved daddy
And [C]daddy loved drink[G]in'
She'd cry all [D]alone in [G]her room[C]
Daddy [Em]drank to [D]an old Haggard [C]tune

[Verse 2]
[G]Ain't too many choices
For a [C]poor boy in West [G]Texas
Just have to work for [D]the pride
in [G]your name[C]
The [G]rent's due on Monday
[C]
Payday's on Friday
[G]Somehow you sti[D]ll find a way
[C]You sell your [Em]soul for those
[D]bills that you pay
[C]

[Verse 3]
And if [G]you're on'ry as hell,
more [D]sinner than saint
You [G]drink too much, and you fall [C]down
[G]Come from a long line of [D]crazy SOBs
[G]I pray that we make [C]'em proud
Here [Em]it's boom or bust
[D]for rednecks like us
That [G]silver spoon, it can't be [C]found
No, we don't back [D]down
On this side [G]of town
[C]

[Verse 4]
[G]
That folded up flag
They [C]gave to my grand[G]ma
Stands for [D]a price that [C]was paid
[G]Fightin' for freedom
The [C]things we believe [G]in
Just like we still [D]do here [C]today
Yeah, [Em]some things 'round
[D]here never [C]change

[Verse 5]
Like the [G]red on my neck
White [C]scars on my [G]knuckles
The blue- collar [D]way I [C]was raised
"It [G]don't take a damn thing
Get your [C]ass up and earn [G]it"
If he was still [D]with us [C]today
[Em]That's what my [D]grandpa [C]would say

[Verse 6]
He [G]was on'ry as hell,
more [D]sinner than saint
You [G]drink too much, and you fall [C]down
[G]Come from a long line of [D]crazy SOBs
[G]I pray that we make [C]'em proud
Here [Em]it's boom [G]or bust
[D]for rednecks like us
That [G]silver spoon, it can't be [C]found
We don't back down
[D]On this side of town
[G]

[Verse 7]
So take the [Em]top off the whiskey
[D]Pass it [C]around

[Verse 8]
[C]
If [G]you're on'ry as hell,
more [D]sinner than saint
You [G]drink too much, and you fall [C]down
[G]Come from a long line of [D]crazy SOBs
[G]I pray that we make [C]'em proud
Here [Em]it's boom or bust
[D]for rednecks like us
That [G]silver spoon, it can't be [C]found
No, we don't back [D]down
On this side [G]of town

[Verse 9]
Hell, no, [C]we don't back [D]down
On this side of [D]town[Em][G][C][D]
