Standard Tuning, No Capo
Intro:
A D C D x2
Verse 1:
A
Well I grew up in one of them old farm towns
D
Where they hit it hard till the sun goes down
C D
Nobody really seemed to care that we were living in the middle of nowhere
A
We just figured that's how it was
D
And everybody else was just like us
C
Soaking in the rain, baking in the sun
D
Don't quit till the job gets done
Chorus:
A
That's the only way I know
D
Don't stop till everything's gone
C
Straight ahead never turn round
D
Don't back up, don't back down
A
Full throttle wide open
D
You get tired, you don't show it
C D
Dig a little deeper when you think you can't dig no more
That's the only way I know
A D
Verse 2:
A
That old red dirt the first thing you learn
D
You don't get nothing that you don't earn
C
Humble pride that I grew up on
D
You find out just how bad you want it
A
Sun in our eyes backs to the fences
D
Didn't know the odds were against us
C
Hit the wall smoking and spinning
D
Still wasn't thinking 'bout nothing but winning
Chorus:
A
That's the only way I know
D
Don't stop till everything's gone
C
Straight ahead never turn round
D
Don't back up, don't back down
A
Full throttle wide open
D
You get tired, you don't show it
C D
Dig a little deeper when you think you can't dig no more
That's the only way I know

Maybe there's another path that will get you there a little bit faster,

But I'm sticking with the one inside of me.

Don't stop till everything's gone
C
Straight ahead never turn round

You get tired, you don't show it

Dig a little deeper when you think you can't dig no more

These ARE the chords, as to weather or not they're fingered the right way can be
up for debate...there's some lead solos and fills too, but i'm more of a rhythm
player, so i just worked on rhythm guitar...
