Chorus:

I feel no shame

I'm proud of where I came from
D A E
I was born and raised in the boondocks

One thing I know

No matter where I Go
D A E
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks
Verse:
Bm
And I can feel
D E
That muddy water running through my veins
Bm D E
And I can hear that lullaby of a midnight train
D A
It sings to me and it sounds familiar
(Repeat Chorus)
Bm
And I can taste
D E
That honeysuckle and it's still so sweet
Bm
When it grows wild
D E
On the banks down at old camp creek
D A
Yeah, and it calls to me like a warm wind blowing
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
A E
It's where I learned about living
A E
It's where I learned about love
A E
It's where I learned about working hard
D A
And having a little was just enough
A E
It's where I learned about Jesus
A E
And knowing where I stand
A E D
You can take it or leave it, this is me
A E
This is who I Am
Solo: E - E - D - A - E

Give me a tin roof

A front porch and a gravel road

And that's home to me

It feels like home to me
(Repeat Chorus)
D A E
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks
