Intro: D
(Verse 1)
D
I was baptized at the Baptist Church
Cadd9
My old man taught me bout a hard day's work
G D
I learned how to love and learned how to fight
D
It's where we keep our cash in a dresser drawer
Cadd9 G
Underneath a .44 and if we do you wrong
D
We'll damn sure make it right
(Chorus)
Cadd9 G D
It's the only place that I call home
Cadd9 G D
No matter where in this country I might roam
Cadd9 G D
It's where the corn grows tall and the moonshine still flows
Cadd9 G D
It's the only place that I call home
(Verse 2)
You're word is good on a handshake
Preacher still talks about a judgement day
People gonna stop when a funeral passes by
We say, "Yes, sir," and say, "Yes, ma'am"
Answer the call from Uncle Sam
And hit a bully in the nose if crosses a line
(Repeat Chorus)
Cadd9 G D (2X)
(Bridge)
Cadd9 G D
My roots are buried deep here in this little town
Cadd9 G D
And one of these days it's where they'll put me in the ground
(Repeat Chorus)
Ending:
Cadd9 G D
It's the only place that I call home
D D Cadd9 G D
