G
Well, he traded in his dumb old Ford

C     D                               G
For a new smart car with an extension cord

G                                      C
Now he’s saving gas and got a cheaper note

D                              G
But he’s got no way to haul his boat
[Chorus]
G       C       G     Am7         G
Its the little things we take for granted

G    D               G        C
When we sacrifice to save the planet

G                       C
Darndest thing I’ve ever seen

D                              G
That old redneck has done gone green
G C D7 G [Verse]
G                      C
Down the road, old man McGower

C   D                                   G
You know he runs his house on the solar power

G                                 Cmaj7 C
Now his lights are bright and the music plays

D                                  G
Sorta dark and quiet on the cloudy days
[Chorus]
G       C       G     Am7         G
Its the little things we take for granted

G    D               G        C
When we sacrifice to save the planet

G                       C
Darndest thing I’ve ever seen

D                              G
That old redneck has done gone green
[Instrumental] G Am G D G C D Em7 C G Am G D G C D Em7 C [Bridge]
D                   G           C
The life we knew is coming to a halt

C             D
It’s sad but true and it’s our own fault

D              G                          C
We put our own crimson necks right in the noose

C                         D
We got strung out on that black dinosaur juice
[Verse]
B                     D        C
Well not long ago someone told me

D                          G
To quit using paper, stop killing trees

G                   C
She said soon there won’t be no more books

Dm                           G           C
I swear to God on a stack of Nooks
[Chorus]
G       C       G     Am7         G
Its the little things we take for granted

G    D               G
When we sacrifice to save the planet

G                        C
Darndest thing I’ve ever seen

D                               G
That old redneck has done gone green

D                                  G
The whole damn place has done gone green
