Boondocks Tab

Song: Boondocks
Artist: Little Big Town



Capo 2nd fret

(Chorus):


I feel no shame

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

One thing I know

No matter where I go
                                  
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks

(Verse)

          
And I can feel
                                   
That muddy water running through my veins
                                       
And I can hear that lullaby of a midnight train
                     
It sings to me and it sounds familiar

(Repeat Chorus)

          
And I can taste
                                  
That honeysuckle and it's still so sweet
        
When it grows wild
                             
On the banks down at old camp creek
                               
Yeah, and it calls to me like a warm wind blowing

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)

                          
It's where I learned about living
                          
It's where I learned about love
                           
It's where I learned about working hard
                        
And having a little was just enough
                          
It's where I learned about Jesus
                   
And knowing where I stand
                           
You can take it or leave it, this is me
            
This is who I am

(Solo)     -  -  -  - 

(Pre-chorus - I enjoy strumming the chords lightly through this even though the
 song only has one or two strums per chord)


           
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)

                                  
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks


** NC (1st time around) **

You get a line, I'll get a pole
We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole
Five-card poker on a Saturday night
Church on Sunday morning

** 2nd time has light single strums, 3rd time play these chords **


You get a line, I'll get a pole
                       
We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole
(Down in the boondocks)


Five-card poker on a Saturday night
                  
Church on Sunday morning
