I lived it (video)

G - Em - C

G

1. Daddy drove the wheels off a flatbed Ford,

Em

flies found a hole in the old screen door.

C

Granny said the dress that my sister wore

to church wasn't long enough.

G

Mama poured grease in a Crisco can,

Em

put a hundred thousand miles on a Sears box fan.

C

Uncle Joe put tobacco on my hand,

where them yellow jackets torn me up.

Em D

And I ain't making this up.

G - Em

Oh, you think I'm talking crazy, in a different language,

C D

you might not understand.

G - Em

Oh, that's alright, that's just the kind of life,

C D

that made me who I am.

C G

Just taking my mind on a visit, back in time 'cause I miss it,

Am

you wouldn't know to love it, like I love it,

C G

unless you lived it, and, man, I lived it.

2. Granddaddy smoked Salems with the windows up,

Em

drove me around in the back of that truck,

C

we drank from the hose and spit in the cup,

we all survived somehow.

G

Them ol' Duke boys were flattening the hills,

Em

Hollywood was fake, wrestling was real,

C

wouldn't dream of spending that two dollar bill

from pushing a lawn mower around.

Em D

I'd go back there right now.

G - Em

Oh, you think I'm talking crazy, in a different language,

C D

you might not understand.

G - Em

Oh, that's alright, that's just the kind of life,

C D

that made me who I am.

C G

Just taking my mind on a visit, back in time 'cause I miss it,

Am

you wouldn't know to love it, like I love it,

unless you lived it, and, man, I lived it.
