Full step down [Intro] Bm G D (x2) [Verse]
     Bm
It's just an old beat up truck 

         G
Some say that I should trade up

    D
Now that I got some jangle in my pocket

    Bm
But what they don't understand 

    G
Is it's the miles that make a man

           D
I wouldn't trade that thing in for a rocket

     Bm
What they don't know is my dad and me

     G
We drove her out to Tennessee

     D                            A
And she's still here and now he's gone

  Em  G   D
So I hold on
[Verse]
     Bm
It's just an old beat up box

     G
It's rusty strings across the top

     D
It probably don't look like much to you

          Bm
But these dents and scratches in the wood

     G
Yea that's what makes it sound so good

D
To me it's better than brand new

    Bm
Yea see this here flat top guitar

     G
Has had my back in a million bars

D                     A
Singing every country song

 Em  G   D
So I hold on
[Chorus]
        G            D
To the things, I believe in

     A                     Bm
My faith, your love, our freedom

         G
To the things I can count on

    D              A
To keep me going strong

             Bm  G  D
Yeah I hold on

      Bm  G  D
I hold on

            G
Like the stripes to the flag

        D         A
Like a boy to his dad

         G           D             A
I can't change who I am, right or wrong

           Bm  G  D
So I hold on
[Verse]
 Bm
Baby lookin at you right now

  G
There ain't never been no doubt

D
Without you I'd be nothing

   Bm                       G
So if you ever worry about, me walkin out

D
Yeah let me tell you something

Bm   G   D
I hold on 

Bm  G   D
I hold on
Can you hear me baby
Bm  G   D
I hold on

Bm  G  D
I hold on
[Chorus]
        G           D
To the things, I believe in

    A                      Bm
My faith, your love, our freedom

         G
To the things I can count on

    D              A
To keep me going strong 

        G           D      
To the things, I believe in

    A                      Bm
My faith, your love, our freedom

         G
To the things I can count on

    D              A
To keep me going strong

             Bm G D
Yea I hold on

         Bm G D
I hold on
