I was born in a dump
F#m  E       F#m       E
Mama died and daddy get drunk

In a middle of Tobacco Road

[Verse 2]
F#m  E      F#m   E
Grew up in a rusty shack
F#m  E       F#m           E
All I had was hangin' on my back
F#m  E       F#m   C#
Only you know how I loathe
                         F#m  E  F#m  E
This place called Tobacco Road

[Chorus]
        A  Bm         A              Bm
But it's home the only life I've ever know
A            C#
Only you know how I loathe
       F#m  E        F#m  E
