     E
The deck was stacked against me
       D
Daddy died when I was fifteen
     A
The only thing he left me
       E
Was a belt with our name branded on the back
          E
And this half-drunk bottle of whiskey


PD-C HORUS:
       E
So I cried myself to sleep at night
         D
Praying Lord get me out of this double wide
   F#m
A backwoods boy raised with guns and knives
          A
But it's this guitar that saved my life


CHORUS:
 E
Drowned my sorrow in a melody
      D
At a time when God forgot about me
     F#m
When no one was there to sing along
        A                          A   E   D  A  E
With a son of a son of a son of a song-ong


VERSE:
 E
Momma always fought for me
         D
And she built the man she knew I'd be
 A                                     E
Prayed I'd always spread my wings and fly

 E
Now I'm up here on this stage
   D
I know I still gotta long damn way
   A
To go but I can feel the winds of change
      E
With every single song I sing


PD-C HORUS:
       E
Now I tuck my kids in bed most nights
        D
Got a house now hell with a double wide
         F#m
Still a backwoods boy with guns and knives
       A
And I play this guitar for my sweet wife


CHORUS:
  E
Still get lost in a melody
     D
And all is good between God and me
 F#m
Thanking everybody who sings along
        A                          A    E  D  A  E
With a son of a son of a son of a song-ong
 E
Wooohhhhh
