Tearin Up The Country

D
Playin' a pavilion on the outskirts of town,
                              A
Playin' where my roller derby rolls.
A
Just a part time music man, A nobody at the plant,
                                  D
I'm Tearin' Up The Country with a song.

[Verse 2]

D
Mom and Papa told me "Son, you gotta go to school;
                            A
Only way to make the fam'ly proud," Ha
A
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
                          D
Rather play my music real loud.

[Chorus]

D
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
                              A
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
A
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
                          D
Rather play my music real loud. Play it now!

[Instrumental]

    D A

[Chorus]

D
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
                              A
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
A
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
                          D
Rather play my music real loud.

[Verse 3]

D
Ran into a dry spell, seemed nowhere to go.
                                     A
Good luck turned the tide, I'm on my way.
A
I remember loadin' big trucks when the summer was hot,
                                         D
You know I could still be there, but I'm not.

[Chorus]

D
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
                              A
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
A
I remember loadin' big trucks when the summer was hot,
                                         D
You know I could still be there, but I'm not.
D
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
                              A
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
A
I remember loadin' big trucks when the summer was hot,
                                         D
You know I could still be there, but I'm not.
