[Strophe]
G                                                 F 
People talkin' 'bout what is and what ain't country 
      C                                           G 
What gives 'em a right to wear a pair of beat-up boots? 
            G                                                   F 
Is it the size of your tires and your fires, or your wild ass buddies? 
       C                                                   G 
Well, give me a minute, let me hit you with some hometown truth
[Pre-Refrain]
                 G 
You could be a cowboy on the Texas plain 
       F        C 
Or a plowboy waitin' on the rain 
 
We're all a little different, but we're all the same 
 
Everybody doin' their own thing 
[Refrain]
          G 
I got my dirt road cred when I was 12 
         F 
On a no-cab tractor hauling them bales 
 C 
Backing in boats, fishing limb-lines 
G                                 C 
Running bird dogs through the Georgia pines 
G 
Step side covered down in peanut dust 
 F 
Friday night spotlight'n, that was us 
         C 
It might not've been you, but I ain't judging 
C                                  G     F C G F 
Just be proud of what makes you country
[Strophe]
        G 
Does it run in your blood? 
                                  F 
Did it come from your daddy and mama? 
          C                                    G 
Were you converted by an Alabama song on the radio?
 
That feels so right 
         G                                             F 
Did you lock eyes with a little green-eyed girl from Jackson? 
 C                                  G 
Tell me what got ya, I just gotta know
[Refrain]
                G 
Me, I got my Sunday learning in a live oak church 
 F 
Silver Queen corn in the backyard dirt 
C 
Waiting for the fall to finally come along 
   G                              C 
So I can grab my gun and get my outside on 
G 
Step side covered down in peanut dust 
F 
Friday night spotlight'n, that was us 
          C 
It might not've been you, but I ain't judging 
                                  G 
Just be proud of what makes you country
[Pont]
       G 
Might be from a city or a little farm town 
 F 
Whatever kind of square that you drove around 
        C 
Do you wear it on your sleeve or keep it deep down?  
 
You know you gotta let it out
[Refrain]
          G 
I got my dirt road cred back when I was 12 
         F 
On a no-cab tractor hauling them bales 
 C 
Backing in boats, fishing limb-lines 
G                                 C 
Running bird dogs through the Georgia pines 
G 
Step side covered down in peanut dust 
 F 
Friday night spotlight'n, that was us 
         C 
It might not've been you, but I ain't judging 
C                                  G     F C G F 
Just be proud of what makes you country
[Outro]
G 
You do your kinda country 
F 
They doing they kind of country 
C 
I do my kind of country 
G         C            G 
Whatever makes us country
