(intro) D (verse)
D
I'd like to say it was perfect

D
Growing up was a fairytale

D
But Hollywood don't make no movies

D                                 G
About a house up on wheels down a dirt road, Mississippi

                   D
Tucked back in the trees

      A            D

(verse)
D
Well the man my mama married

D
Had a mean streak in his blood

D
And when he took to drinking

D
He'd take it out on us

D           G
And I could hear my mama crying

                     D
That made it hard to sleep

      A           D

(chorus)
G              C        G
That's where I became a man

               D
Long before my time

G                  C          G
And since I left I ain't been back

                    A
But I go back in my mind
(verse)
      D
Thank God for Buford Bailey

D
He had a pond he'd let me fish

D
That's where I'd run off to

D
Every chance I'd get

            G
And I would pray that God was listening

                     D
And He'd come rescue me

      A          D

Then one day, my uncle pulled up in a pickup truck

F#m                 Em
Loaded up everything

F#m                    A
Wasn't much but it was everything
(chorus-out)

About a house up on wheels down a dirt road, Mississippi

Thats what made me "me"
