[Verse 1]
D I was raised off of Rural Route 3, A out past where the blacktop ends, D We'd walk to church on Sunday mornin' G and race barefoot back to Johnson's fence D That's where I first saw Mary, A On that roadside pickin' blackberries, Bm G A D that summer I turned a corner in my soul down that red dirt road
[Chorus]
(D) It's where I drank my first beer, A It's where I found Jesus, Bm Where I wrecked my first car G I tore it all to pieces, D I learned the path to heaven, A Is full of sinners and believers, Bm Learned that happiness on earth, G Ain't just for high achievers, Em D/F# I've learned, I've come to know, G A D A Bm there's life at both ends of that red dirt road
[Verse 2]
D Her daddy didn't like me much, A In my shackled up GTO, D I'd sneak out in the middle of the night, G Throw rocks at her bedroom window, D We'd turn out the headlights, A Drive by the moonlight, Bm G Talk about what the future might hold, A D Down that red dirt road,
[Chorus]
(D) It's where I drank my first beer, A It's where I found Jesus, Bm Where I wrecked my first car G I tore it all to pieces, D I learned the path to heaven, A Is full of sinners and believers, Bm Learned that happiness on earth, G Ain't just for high achievers, Em D/F# I've learned, I've come to know, G A there's life at both ends of that red dirt road

[Bridge]
Em D/F# I went out into the world, G And I came back in, Em D/F# I lost Mary, G Oh, I got her back again Em D/F# And driving home tonight G A Asus4 Feels like I found a long lost friend,
[Chorus]
D It's where I drank my first beer, A It's where I found Jesus, Bm Where I wrecked my first car G I tore it all to pieces, D I learned the path to heaven, A Is full of sinners and believers, Bm Learned that happiness on earth, G Ain't just for high achievers, Em D/F# I've learned, I've come to know, G A there's life at both ends of that red dirt road
[Outro]
| D | A | Bm | Bm |
Em D/F# Yes, I've learned, I've come to know, G A there's life at both ends of that red dirt road
