[C]Hey there, darlin', won't you love me down?
I'm [Am]fif ty- one miles out in interstate town
[F]I just decided I ain't keepin' quiet

That [F]grows in grandfather,
and his daughters, and me, you [G]see?

And I [C]wanna stay humble,

I [Am]wan na hear my father say that he loves me
I [F]never gave a shit about
being arrogant any[G]way

[Chorus 1]
So [C]hold on [F]tight
'Cause I'll be working [Am]overt[G]ime

They said I's a [C]wanna-be cowboy
from a cut-throat town
With [Am]tat tooed skin and nobody around
"Your [F]songs sound the same,

And Grand[Am]daddy worked a double
'til the day he died
Said, [F]"Never let this world's
earthly pride get you [G]down"

[Pre-chorus 2]
No matter [C]who you know,

I'll be[Am]come what I deserve
when it's all through
And [F]you'll be there
asking yourself [G]why
