Em
I grew up ten minutes from the sticks
Ten minutes from the beach
G
And there ain't a Bible verse y'all
D
I ain't heard a preacher preach
Em
Mom and Dad up in the bleachers
G
Screaming while I pitch
  D                    B
and D up in the speakers
while I'm ridin' round town with My
Em G
Best friends, ain't life a whirlwind
D
One second I'm playing checkers with
Em
Grandma, and my world ends. I used to
G D
hear my granddaddy say, before Its
too late

[Chorus]
C
You gotta dig your roots
before the sun goes down,
Em D G
show some love back in your home town,

[Próxima Parte]

fall in love, plant some seeds,
Em D G
cross some names in your family tree
C
raise your kids, love your wife,
Em D G
put God first just to live your life.

D
more dirt on my boots. ya gotta dig your roots

[Chorus 2]

You love 'em
G
You gotta put 'em

in the ground for someone.

[Verse]
Em
I'm just a long haired
G
tattooed feather in the wind
D
just a good ole' boy
just like my old man
Em
every night when i'm
G
singing I know he's looking down
D
up there next to papa with the best
Em
seats in the house, when I close my
G
eyes I can still here him say,
D
the same thing I'm gonna tell my kids

[Chorus]
