It's What I Am Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Em]
[G]I got

[Verse 1]
my first guitar
when I was just a boy
I was playing the blues instead
of playing with toys
[Bb]Listening to the Opry and
[C]dreaming of the neon [G]lights
So it was late to bed and early to rise
I worked the field all day and
the crowd all night
[Bb]My finger on the trigger and
[C]Nashville in my [G]sights
I'm the [D]real thing and I sing
[C]songs about real life
[G]

[Verse 2]
And I [C]never heard a fiddle called a [G]violin
[C]Never really worried if I [G]fit in
[C]Country ain't what I sing
[G]it's what I am[D]
This [C]hat ain't something
I [G]wear for style
These [C]boots have been
[G]around a while
[C]Country ain't what I [D]sing
it's [G]what I am

[Verse 3]
[G][Em][C]
[G]I learned to drive on a dirt road
Cruised the strip on rock and roll
And [Bb]drove around on [C]"Miles
and Miles of [G]Texas"
And as I grew Daddy showed me now
To earn a living by the sweat of my brow
But [Bb]he never made me f[C]ol
low in his [G]steps
He said [D]work hard and let the
good [C]Lord do the rest
[G]

[Verse 4]
And I [C]never heard a fiddle called [G]a violin
Nev[C]er really worried if I [G]fit in
[C]Country ain't what I sing
[G]it's what I am[D]
This [C]truck ain't something
I [G]drive for style
These [C]boots have been
[G]around a while
[C]Country ain't what I [D]sing it's
what [G]I am

[Interlude 1]
[F][C][G][C][Cm][C][D][Eb]
[D]And I nev

[Verse 5]
[C]er heard
a fiddle called a [G]violin
Nev[C]er really worried if I [G]fit in
[C]Country ain't what I sing
[G]it's what I am[D]
This [C]hat ain't something
I [G]wear for style
These [C]boots have been
[G]around a while
[C]Country ain't what I sing
[D]it's what I am

[Outro 1]
