[Verse 1]
Compared to my father I'm a col[C]lege boy
Who never learned to saw a [G]straight [C]line
[G]Compared to my mother I'm a sinner[C]
Who never saw [G]the light[C]
But I [G]read [D]my [Em]bib [D]le e[Em]very d[D]ay[C]
I [G]worked [D]my [Em]hands [D]in [C]wood
I ain't always done my best but
I've done the best I [G]could

[Verse 2]
Compared [D]to you I am
[C]Appalachian [G]south
When I [C]hear those sweet [G]words
Like [D]peaches in your mouth
I [G]know that your [D]roots
Run [C]underneath this [G]clay
To [C]the place that makes a
[G]Dreamer never [D]wanna run away
Where [Em]love [D]is [G]rare love [D]that's [G]true
I ain't [F]never met a wo[C]man
in my [D]life
That compared to [G]you

[Verse 3]
[G]Compared to my brother I'm a s[C]eeker
Who just wanted way too [G]much[C]
[G]Compared to my sister I'm a lon[C]er
Who is livin' out [G]of touch[C]
And [G]I've [D]got [Em]nowhere [D]else to be[C]
Would you [G]like [D]to [Em]take [D]a w[C]alk
Or just sit here and let
me hear you [G]talk?

[Verse 4]
Compared [D]to you I am
[C]Appalachian [G]south
When I [C]hear those sweet [G]words
Like [D]peaches in your mouth
You [G]talk with a [D]drawl and I
[C]talk with [G]a twang
But [C]un derneath [G]it all we both
[D]Mean the same thing [Em]love [D]is [G]rare
Love [D]that's [G]true
I ain't [F]never met a wo[C]man in my [D]life
That compared [G]to you

[Verse 5]
Well [G]now [D]that [Em]you [D]know all of [C]that
Do you think that we could
Maybe close this [G]gap?

[Verse 6]
Compared [D]to you I am
[C]Appalachian [G]south
When I [C]hear those sweet [G]words
Like [D]peaches in your mouth
I [G]know that your [D]roots
Run [C]underneath this [G]clay
To [C]the place that makes a
[G]Dreamer never [D]wanna run away
Where [Em]love [D]is [G]rare love [D]that's [G]true
I ain't [F]never met a wo[C]man in my [D]life
That compared to [G]you
