intro . : Am F C G x 2

Am F C G
don’t you dare go runnin’ down my little town where i grew up
Am F C G
and i won’t cuss your city lights
Am F C G
if you ain’t ever took a ride around and cruised right through the heart of my town
Am F C G
anything you say would be a lie
F G
we may live our lives a little slower
F G
but that don’t mean i wouldn’t be proud to show ya

( chorus ) :
Am F C G
where i come from , there’s an old plow boy out turning up dirt
Am F C G
where i come from , there’s a preacher man in a cowboy shirt
Am F C G
where i come from , where a couple of boys fight in the parking lot
Dm C F
no , nobody’s gonna call the cops , where i come from

inst . : Am F C G

Am F C G
see that door right there , man , i swear it ain’t never been locked
Am F C G
and i guarantee that it never will
Am F C G
that old man right there in the rocking chair at the courthouse square
i’ll tell you now
Am F C G
he could buy your fancy car with hundred dollar bills
F G
don’t let those faded overalls fool ya
F G
he made his bill without one day of schoolin’

( chorus ) :
Am F C G
where i come from , there’s a pickup truck with the tailgate down
Am F C G
where i come from , the pine trees are singing a song of the south
Am F C G
where i come from , that little white church is gonna have a crowd
Dm C F
yeah , i’m pretty damn proud of where i come from

inst . : Am F Am G G

Am F C G
where i come from , there’s a big ole’ moon shining down at night
Am F C G
where i come from , there’s a man done wrong gonna make it right
Am F C G
where i come from , there’s an old plow boy out turning up dirt
Am F C G
where i come from , there’s a preacher man in a cowboy shirt
Am F C G
where i come from , where a couple of boys fight in the parking lot
Dm C F
no , ain’t nobody gonna call the cops
Dm C F
yeah , that river runs across that ol’ flint rock
Am F C G
where i come from ,
Am F C G
where i come from
