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 (022100@1)  A (x02220@1)   E (022100@1)   A (x02220@1)Verse 1
           EDown (022100@1)where I born it was heaven on earth.
    AThe (x02220@1)Flint River washes that red Georgia dirt.
E (022100@1)                                   BThe (x2444x@1)sun sets slow and the stars shine bright.
          EWe (022100@1)raised cotton, corn, a little cane, and kids.
           AYou (x02220@1)either lived on a farm or wish you did.
E (022100@1)                             BJesus (x2444x@1)always walked close by our side.
            F#m (244222@1)B (x2444x@1)         E (022100@1)        A (x02220@1)   
    AWhere (x02220@1)I grew up, we rode in trucks.

Verse 2
        EThere's (022100@1)a lot about life you can learn on a bus,
       AHow (x02220@1)to lie, how to fight, how to kiss, how to cuss.
    E (022100@1)                                       BThe (x2444x@1)closer we sat to the back, the smarter we got.
        EWe (022100@1)were poor, we were ugly, we were all best friends.
AWhite-eyed, (x02220@1)baptized, and still wantin' to sin.
E (022100@1)                                 BThank (x2444x@1)God we get more than just one shot.
            F#m (244222@1)B (x2444x@1)         EWhere (022100@1)I grew up, we rode in trucks.

Chorus
       B (x2444x@1)        A (x02220@1)                             EThat's (022100@1)us, haulin' hay in the field with the radio on.
       B (x2444x@1)         A (x02220@1)                        F#mThat's (244222@1)us, headin' straight into town when the work is done.
      B (x2444x@1)          A (x02220@1)                E (022100@1)       E/G# (143121@4)         AIn (x02220@1)my mind, I can still see us now, ridin' down Buck Island Road.
A (x02220@1)                 F#m (244222@1)         BIt (x2444x@1)wasn't that long ago.

Verse 3
EWe (022100@1)thought tobacco and beer in a can
AWas (x02220@1)all it would take to be like our old man.
    E (022100@1)                       BBut (x2444x@1)I saw how it made my momma cry.
       EIt (022100@1)was huntin' and fishin' and football games.
A (x02220@1)                              F#mThen (244222@1)it was girls, and everything changed,
        BIn (x2444x@1)our lives.
                      F#m (244222@1) B (x2444x@1)         EFallin' (022100@1)in and out of love, we rode in trucks.

Chorus 2
       B (x2444x@1)         A (x02220@1)                    EThat's (022100@1)us with our tailgates down in the parking lot.
       B (x2444x@1)     A (x02220@1)                  F#mThat's (244222@1)us with mud on our tires when it rained a lot.
     B (x2444x@1)          A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)         E/G# (143121@4)         AIn (x02220@1)my mind, I can still see us now, ridin' down Buck Island Road.
                    F#m (244222@1)               B (x2444x@1)               A (x02220@1) 
 BIt (x2444x@1)wasn't that long ago, it's apart of my soul. Yeah.

    AThe (x02220@1)Flint River washes that red Georgia dirt.
E (022100@1)                                   BThe (x2444x@1)sun sets slow and the stars shine bright.
