Capo 2
Am D Am D
I was born, in a dump
Am D Am D
My mother died, yea my daddy got drunk
Am D Am D
They Left me here, to die or grow
Am (let ring)
In the middle of Tobacco Road
Am D Am D
I Grew up in a rusty shack
Am D Am D
All I ever owned was hangin' on my back
Am D Am D
Lord knows how much I loathe
Am (let ring)
This place called Tobacco Road

D7 D7
And the lord knows I loathe,
Am D Am D
Tobacco Road, yea (yea, yeeaa)

I'm gonna leave here and get me a job
Am D Am D
With the help and the grace of God
Am D Am D
I'm gonna save my money, get very rich I know
Am (let ring)
Bring it back to Tobacco road
Am D Am D
Bring Dynamite yea, big ol' crane
Am D Am D
Blow it up, tear it down, start all over again
Am D Am D
Build me a town be very proud to show
Am (let ring)
Keep the name of Tobacco Road
CHORUS
D7
Cause its home,
D7 E7
the only life I've ever known, yea
D7 D7
And the lord knows I loathe,
