[Intro]
G D Em C
G D C C
[Verse]
G D
We'd skip rocks down at cedar creek
Em C
Swing from a rope tied to a tree
G D
We'd pitch a tent in our old back yard
Em C
Catch lightning bugs in a mason jar
G D
Daddy wore us out when we stepped out of line
Em C
Mamas the reason we bowed our heads at night
G D C C
We'd sit around and listen to grandpas’ stories
[Chorus]
G D
Stomping boots and slinging mud
Em C
A little rowdy but a lot of fun
G D
Where your roots run deep your stars hang low
Em C
A man’s word is as good as gold
G D Em
You nod your head as you pass by
C G
It's a simple kinda life
[Solo]
G D Em C
[Verse]
G D
Chewing on syrup cane sitting on the tailgate
Em C
Of my 89' Chevrolet
G D
And Peanuts in a coke at old Mathis store
Em C
That open sign ain't on no more
G D
And Friday nights we'd go downtown
Em C
And just to burn gas and ride around
G D C C
And blare our speakers to country radio
[Chorus]
G D
Stomping boots and slinging mud
Em C
A little rowdy but a lot of fun
G D
Where your roots run deep your stars hang low
Em C
A man’s word is as good as gold

You nod your head as you pass by

It's who we are,

It's where we're from

It's where we'll be when it's said and done
[Chorus]

Stomping boots and slinging mud
Em C
A little rowdy but a lot of fun

Where your roots run deep your stars hang low
Em C
A man’s word is as good as gold

You nod your head as you pass by
