Dirt Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][Am][F]

[Verse 1]
[C]You get your hands in it
Plant your roots in it
[F]Dusty headlight, dance with your boots in it
[Am](Dir[F]t)
[C]You write her name on it
Spin your tires on it
[F]Build your cornfield, whiskey, bonfires on it
[Am](Dirt)
You bet your life on [F]it, yeah

[Chorus 1]
It's that [C]elm shade,
red rust clay you grew up on
That [F]plowed up ground
that your dad damned his luck on
That [G]post game party field you circle up on
[F]And when it rains, you get stuck on
Drift a [C]cloud back behind county roads,
that you run up
And [F]mud on her jeans,
that she peeled off and hung up
Her [G]blue-eyed summertime [Am]smile,
looks so good that it [F]hurts
Makes you wanna build a ten [Am]percent down
White [G]picket fence house on this [C]dirt

[Verse 2]
[C]You've mixed some sweat with it
Taken a shovel to it
[F]You've stuck some crosses
And some painted goal posts through it
[Am](Dirt) You know you came from it
[F](Dirt) And some day you'll return to

[Chorus 2]
This [C]elm shade,
red rust clay you grew up on
That [F]plowed up ground
that your dad damned his luck on
That [G]post game party field you circle up on
[F]And when it rains, you get stuck on
Drift a [C]cloud back behind county roads,
that you run up
And [F]mud on her jeans,
that she peeled off and hung up
Her [G]blue-eyed summertime [Am]smile,
looks so good that it [F]hurts
Makes you wanna build a ten [Am]percent down
White [G]picket fence house on this...

[Bridge 1]
[C](dirt)
[F](Dirt)
[Am]You know you came from it (Dirt)
[F]And some day you'll return to

[Chorus 3]
This [C]elm shade,
red rust clay you grew up on
That [F]plowed up ground
that your dad damned his luck on
That [G]post game party field you circle up on
[F]And when it rains, you get stuck on
Drift a [C]cloud back behind county roads,
that you run up
And [F]mud on her jeans,
that she peeled off and hung up
Her [G]blue-eyed summertime [Am]smile,
looks so good that it [F]hurts
Makes you wanna build a ten [Am]percent down
White [G]picket fence house on this [C]dirt
Makes you wanna [F]build a [Am]percent down
White [G]picket fence house on this

[Outro 1]
[C](dirt)[F]
[Am]You know you came from it
[F]And some day you'll return to it[C]
