[Intro 1]
[D][A][D][G][A][D]
[G][A][D]

[Verse 1]
Four [D]year's old my [G]birthday
[A]Opened presents, ate som[D]e cake
I took my Tonka straight [G]outside [A]to play
In [D]dirt
Six years old, [G]hard line [A]drive
That ball just [D]sailed on by
'Cause I was busy [G]writing
that name [A]of mine
In [D]dirt
It was [G]my first

[Verse 2]
love
[A]Good as gold
[D]Heaven was a shovel and
a two foot hole
[G]Mama should have bought all
my [A]clothes in brown
'Cause [D]I'd turn 'em
that color anyhow
Even [G]between the car and the front
steps of that [A]church
Was [D]dirt
[G][A][D]

[Verse 3]
Turned sixteen [G]bought a Chevro[A]let
Four wheel drive, what a [D]happy day
So even if it [G]rained I could [A]play
In [D]dirt
Couple years later, wouldn't [G]you know
[A]Lost my heart at the rod[D]eo
She fell off her horse and was
[G]covered head to [A]toe
In [D]dirt
It was [G]my first

[Verse 4]
love
[A]Good as gold
[D]Heaven was a shovel and a two foot hole
It's the [G]reason I'm out
here [A]tilling this land
And that [D]rodeo queen's
got a ring on her hand
I don't [G]know where I'd
be if [A]it weren't
For [G]dirt

[Interlude 1]
[A][D]
[G]I

[Verse 5]
ain't afraid of [A]growing old
'Cause [D]when I die I know where I'll go
[G]There'll be no need to cry[A] for me
[D]I won't need your sympathy
When [G]they cover me up
with six [A]feet of earth
It's just [D]dirt
