We Rode In Trucks


This is a great song and I couldn't find a good tab for it so I decided to make one. is my first tab so be gentle. This strum pattern isn't exactly right but it sounds pretty close. D*DUD*DU*UD*D On the LAST UP STROKE I like to play the A string open when playing the E chord and when the A chord play the B string open. Sounds a lot more like the song. I only do this the beginning of each verse. Intro: E A E A Verse 1 E Down where I born it was heaven on earth. A The Flint River washes that red Georgia dirt. E B The sun sets slow and the stars shine bright. E We raised cotton, corn, a little cane, and kids. A You either lived on a farm or wish you did. E B Jesus always walked close by our side. F#m B E A A Where I grew up, we rode in trucks. Verse 2 E There's a lot about life you can learn on a bus, A How to lie, how to fight, how to kiss, how to cuss. E B The closer we sat to the back, the smarter we got. E We were poor, we were ugly, we were all best friends. A White-eyed, baptized, and still wantin' to sin. E B Thank God we get more than just one shot. F#m B E Where I grew up, we rode in trucks. Chorus B A E That's us, haulin' hay in the field with the radio on. B A F#m That's us, headin' straight into town when the work is done. B A E E/G# A In my mind, I can still see us now, ridin' down Buck Island Road. A F#m B It wasn't that long ago. Verse 3 E We thought tobacco and beer in a can A Was all it would take to be like our old man. E B But I saw how it made my momma cry. E It was huntin' and fishin' and football games. A F#m Then it was girls, and everything changed, B In our lives. F#m B E Fallin' in and out of love, we rode in trucks. Chorus 2 B A E That's us with our tailgates down in the parking lot. B A F#m That's us with mud on our tires when it rained a lot. B A E E/G# A In my mind, I can still see us now, ridin' down Buck Island Road. F#m B A B It wasn't that long ago, it's apart of my soul. Yeah. Outro E Down where I was born, it was heaven on earth. A The Flint River washes that red Georgia dirt. E B The sun sets slow and the stars shine bright. F#m B E Where I grew up, we rode in trucks.
