The song also sounds great when only power chords are used throughout the pre-chorus and chorus. But for the verses, power chords are the best. Tuning: Standard Intro (Lead #1):

       E5
When I passed that city limit sign

  E5                            B5    B5
I knew that I was finally on my own

     E5
So I put my foot down on the gas

   E5                                    B5    B5
To see how fast those wheels could get me going
Pre-Chorus:
G 
Everything about that place made me who I am

A 
But they say once you leave you can't go back again
Chorus:
Bm                           G 
So I took it with me: that cloud of red dust rolling up

     D                               A 
That Georgia blue sky, setting sun, straight up highway forty-one

Bm                        G 
I took it with me: that wild street, that fighting sight

     D 
That born to run on a Friday night

     A                         A 
That standing tall small town pride

          Bm       G      D      A 
I took it with me
Play Lead #1 Verse II:
     E5
They say this world can change you fast

E5                                 B5    B5
And kick you right on back where you belong

  E5
So I roll my sleeves up every day

E5                                        B5    B5
'Cause that's just what you do where I come from
Pre-Chorus:
G 
Everything I ever knew I bottled up inside

         A 
When I need a shot of back home, it ain't hard to find
Chorus:
Bm                           G 
'Cause I took it with me, that cloud of red dust rolling up

     D                               A 
That Georgia blue sky, setting sun, straight up highway forty-one

Bm                        G 
I took it with me, that wild street, that fighting sight

     D 
That born to run on a Friday night

     A                         A 
That standing tall small town pride

          Bm       G      D      A 
I took it with me
Bridge:
    G
I'd be a thousand miles away
But it's still crystal clear
  A
I see that picture in my mind
I keep it right here Chorus:
Bm                           G 
'Cause took it with me, that cloud of red dust rolling up

     D                               A 
That Georgia blue sky, setting sun, straight up highway forty-one

Bm                        G 
I took it with me, that wild street, that fighting sight

     D 
That born to run on a Friday night

     A                         A 
That standing tall small town pride

          Bm       G      D      A 
I took it with me
