[Intro]
C Bb
repeat 4 times
F C Bb C
repeat 2 times
[Verse 1]
F C
I grew up in a small town
Bb C
Wheat fields for a downtown kinda place
F C
There was really not much around—
Bb C
You blink and you miss it
F C
I never knew what life would bring
Bb C
But I always had big dreams
F C
I loved to play my guitar and sing
Bb C
And every night I would wish that
Dm C
I’d get a shot on the Opry stage
Bb C
And have people come and see me play
Dm C
Blastin’ on the radio waves
Bb C
Enough to make my Mama cry
[Chorus]
F Gm Am Bb
That’s where I come from
C
That’s who I am
F Gm Am Bb
Hard-working and God-blessed
C
Yes sir thank you ma’am
Dm C Bb
The best things around that I have ever seen
F Gm Am Bb C F Gm Bb C
Came from small towns and big dreams
[Verse 2]
F C
Small town went and grew up
Bb C
But I never changed much by God’s grace
F C
Friends and family kept in touch
Bb C
When I moved to Tennessee
F C
I sing my songs and travel ‘round
Bb C
I met a girl and we’re settling down
F C
We want to find a small town
Bb C
Where we can raise a family
[Chorus]
F Gm Am Bb
That’s where I come from
C
That’s who I am
F Gm Am Bb
Hard-working and God-blessed

Yes sir thank you ma’am

No matter anywhere I go

Even here in _____________
C Bb
I’ve found my kind of folks
Gm F
It’s about you and who you are

It’s all a state of mind

So as I’m giving you my heart
