 Intro: (D) (D) (D/A) (D/B) (D/C) (D/B) (D)


 [(D/A)] [(D/B)] [(D/C)] [(D/B)] [(D)] [(D)] [(D)] 


 My grand(D)mother owned a night club


 On the (Cadd9) Arkansas (G) Oklahoma (D) line


 Mama put me on a Greyhound


 And I went to stay with her in the summer(A7)time


 I'd (G) box up those empty long-necks


 And (Cadd9) stack 'em in the (G) back and make a (D) hand (G)


 Then at (D) night she'd let me sneak out


 Of the (Cadd9) kitchen and let me (G) sit in with the (D) band


 


 Yes, (D) I have sacked some quarterbacks


 And (Cadd9) broke my share of (G) bones along the (D) way


 I knew it wouldn't last forever


 Semi-pro always means semi-pa(A7)yed


 I (G) started climbing drilling rigs


 I'm (Cadd9) oil field trash and (G) proud as I can (D) be, (G) yeah


 Then I (D) took my songs and guitar


 And (Cadd9) sang 'em to a (G) man from Tenness(D)ee


 


 I've played (G) every beer joint tavern


 From (Cadd9) New York City (G) out to Pasad(D)ena


 Every corn dog fair and rodeo


 And sold out every basketball ar(A7)ena


 Like to (F) get down with my boys


 In Af(Cadd9)ghanistan and (G) Baghdad City (D) too (G)


 I am a (D) red, white and (F) blue blood


 (Cadd9) Graduate of (G) Honky Tonk (D) U


 


 Repeat Intro


 


 --Key Change--


 


 A (E) star can't burn forever


 And the (D) brightest ones will (A) someday lose their (E) shine


 But the glass won't ever be


 Half empty in my optimistic (B7) mind


 I'll still (A) have a song to sing


 And a (D) band to turn it (A) up and play it (E) loud (A)


 As (E) long as there's a bar room


 With a (D) corner stage and a (A) honky tonk (E) crowd


 


 I've played (A) every beer joint tavern


 From (D) New York City (A) out to Pasad(E)ena


 Every corn dog fair and rodeo


 And sold out every basketball ar(B7)ena


 Like to (G) get down with my boys


 In Af(D)ghanistan and (A) Baghdad City (E) too (A)


 Son, I'm a (E) red, white and (G) blue blood


 (D) Graduate of (A) Honky Tonk (E) U


 


 That's right a (E) red, white and (G) blue blood


 (D) Graduate of (A) Honky Tonk (E) U
