Capo 1

( G5 - F5 - C5 - G5 )  x2

I rolled my Daddy's truck off the ( F5 ) Dicksonville curve
After ( C5 ) drinkin' my fifth beer
And ( G5 ) I fed hogs tryin' to ( F5 ) pay him off
F?r ( C5 ) most of my senior year

I got my ( G5 ) jaw jacked by a ( F5 ) big ol' boy
F?r ( C5 ) messin' 'round with his ( F5 ) girlfriend
She was ( G5 ) tall and tight and she ( F5 ) kissed just right
But I'll ( C5 ) never do that again

(Chorus)
( G5 ) Yeah ( F5 ) I've done some ( C5 ) pretty stupid things but ( G5 ) hey
I'm a little bit harder and
A ( F5 ) whole lot smarter
That's ( C5 ) how I got to be this way

( G5 - F5 - C5 - G5 )

I've been kicked in the ( F5 ) face by a horse
'Cause I ( C5 ) ran up too fast behind him
And ( G5 ) I shook hands on a ( F5 ) deal with a man
And ( C5 ) found out he was lyin'

I've ( G5 ) broken a couple of ( F5 ) good girl's hearts
'Cause I've ( C5 ) said I loved 'em knowin' I ( F5 ) couldn't
( G5 ) And I've given my ( F5 ) heart to a woman
Who said she'd ( C5 ) stay when I knew she wouldn't

Chorus

I've been ( F5 ) bit I've been ( C5 ) burned
But I've ( F5 ) lived and I've ( C5 ) learned from ( G5 ) it
I've ( F5 ) made some ( C5 ) mistakes but ( F5 ) that's what it ( C5 ) takes
To ( D5 ) make a man out of a kid

Chorus x2

That's ( G5 ) how I got to be this
( F5 ) How I got to be this
( C5 ) How I got to be this ( G5 ) way hey
( G5 - F5 - C5 - G5 )
