For Some Ol Redneck Reason

Intro: D

Verse 1:
D
I love tearin’ down some country road As the red sun’s sinking down
D
Nothing but corn and cotton fields For miles and miles around
G                                                          D
Down every twist and turn, There’s another million dollar view
G
Some folks might not see it
                                  D
But for some old redneck reason I do

Verse 2:
D
I still wear my beat up boots and my old worn out jeans
D
I still say the blessing when I sit down to eat
G                                                                  D
And you can bet I mind my manners every time my momma walks in the room
G
Some folks don’t think that matters
                                  D
But for some old redneck reason I do

Chorus:
G                                C/G G                       C/G
Yeah, for some old redneck reason, sometimes I get the feelin’
G                              D
Maybe I give too much of it now.
G                              C/G G                             C/G
I’m a little old fashion leanin’, out of style and out of season
G                                       D
But I reckon that’s just the way I am.

Verse 3:
D
Sometimes I lay here thinkin’ ‘Bout the good old times that we had
D
Wonder why it all went wrong Or the night it all went bad
G                                                                           D
And I probably shouldn’t call you up, Thinkin’ I can patch things up with you
G
Oh, but when I get to drinkin'
                               D
For some old redneck reason I do

Chorus:
G                               C/G  G                        C/G
Yeah, for some old redneck reason, sometimes I get the feelin’
G                               D
Maybe I give too much of it now
G                             C/G  G                             C/G
I’m a little old fashion leanin’, out of style and out of season
G                                    D
But I reckon that’s just the way I am

Verse 4:
D
I was standing behind a couple teenage kids at a high school football game
D
They didn’t take their hats off when the national anthem played
G                                                                                       D
And I felt like jerkin a knot in their tail, for disrespecting that ole Red, White and Blue
G
Well maybe I shouldn’t get fightin’ mad
                                   D
But for some old redneck reason I do
