[Verse 1]
E G#m
We work in the factories and the fields
A E B
assembly lines, cold mines and the steel mills
E G#m
That's what we do but there’s more to us than that
A E B E
If you want to know who we are it's on the logos of our caps
[Chorus]
E G#m
We're mountaineer. We're volunteers.
A E
We're the tide that rolls. We're Seminole
C#m B
We're the herd, a longhorn steer

We drive Ford and Chevrolet. Cheer twenty-four and eighty-eight
A E B
and we crank up our music Friday nights
A B E
On two thousand country stations, yeah we're one big country nation - that's right

We might fix your water pump or your AC
A E B
and bring your apple pie and fill your glass of tea
E G#m
We'll take that FedEx package to your door
A E B E
but underneath that apron or that uniform
[Chorus]
E G#m
We´re Wildcats. We're Wolverines.
A E C#m B
We're Tigers, Buckeyes, Bruins, Bulldogs, Hawks and Hurricanes

Yeah, we're one big country nation - that's right

Notes:
In the intro/outro the two first chords alternates over the two notes e and d#.
The first chord is an E, so that means it alternates between E and Emaj7.
I hear the second chord as a G#m, so it alternates between weird chord that I wrote as G#m#5 and G#m.
But you're really just playing the same two notes over both chords.
On the album Brad plays a lead guitar with those notes (and a couple more) but if you want to play
this as chords I find it playable and okay sounding around a barre in the 4th fret with these chords:
E - x76454
Emaj7 - x76444
G#m#5 - 4x6454
G#m - 466444
