verse 1
G
I'm fifth generation
Em
on the same piece of land
C
my grandfather's grandfather
D G
paid just ten dollars to a government man
G
for this little piece of heaven,
Em
that I will allways call home
C
and that won't ever change
D G
it run struck through my vains straight to my soul.
Chorus 1
G C C G
Well, you can put me in a city
C C G
and I'll do just fine
C G D Em
but give me my sattle and a good horse to ride,
C C G
'cause at the end of the day,
C C G
when the work's all done
C G D Em D C
I wanna hang my hat, knowing where I'm coming from
Em D C
I've got country in my blood
G
I've got this country in my blood.
verse 2
G
A hundred years of come and gone
Em
and there's been many that were tough
C
but through hard work and tears
D G
we made it through those years never giving up.
G
And I've seen a lot of places
Em
from up on the stage
C
but nothing compares to
D G
what I got right here in this wide open space

when the work's all done

I wanna hang my hat on it where I come from
