Capo 1

( G - F - C - G )  x2

I rolled my Daddy's truck off the ( F ) Dicksonville curve
After ( C ) drinkin' my fifth beer
And ( G ) I fed hogs tryin' to ( F ) pay him off
F?r ( C ) most of my senior year

I got my ( G ) jaw jacked by a ( F ) big ol' boy
F?r ( C ) messin' 'round with his ( F ) girlfriend
She was ( G ) tall and tight and she ( F ) kissed just right
But I'll ( C ) never do that again

(Chorus)
( G ) Yeah ( F ) I've done some ( C ) pretty stupid things but ( G ) hey
I'm a little bit harder and
A ( F ) whole lot smarter
That's ( C ) how I got to be this way

( G - F - C - G )

I've been kicked in the ( F ) face by a horse
'Cause I ( C ) ran up too fast behind him
And ( G ) I shook hands on a ( F ) deal with a man
And ( C ) found out he was lyin'

I've ( G ) broken a couple of ( F ) good girl's hearts
'Cause I've ( C ) said I loved 'em knowin' I ( F ) couldn't
( G ) And I've given my ( F ) heart to a woman
Who said she'd ( C ) stay when I knew she wouldn't

Chorus

I've been ( F ) bit I've been ( C ) burned
But I've ( F ) lived and I've ( C ) learned from ( G ) it
I've ( F ) made some ( C ) mistakes but ( F ) that's what it ( C ) takes
To ( D ) make a man out of a kid

Chorus x2

That's ( G ) how I got to be this
( F ) How I got to be this
( C ) How I got to be this ( G ) way hey
( G - F - C - G )
