[Intro] C F G C F G
       C                      F                C
Twenty dollars out of mama's purse bought us a tank of gas

                    F                     C          G
And some red man tobacco when we was just teenage kids

C                         F             C
Yeah me and my ole' buddy Leroy we'd go driving around

                      F                   C
If there was trouble to be found, man we dang sure did

        Am              G                  C
Cuttin' donuts in the field 'till old man Smith would call the cops

                Am                   G             
And  he'd  come  running  out with a shotgun 'cause we was 

C
running down his crops.

   Dm              Em             F    G
I reckon hes still wonderin who that was

          C    F    G
That was us

              C                F                    C
Some of those local boys moved on but we never changed a bit        

               F                                       C           G
Don't guess we had enough sense, at least that's what some folks said

       C                F                 C
Yeah we finally turned old enough to buy our own beer

                     F                     C
Don't remember much about that year, lucky we ain't dead

        Am                G                      C
'Cause somebody said they saw some boys with a truck looked just like mine

       Am                 G                   C
Trying to pull down that old water tank sits out on the county line

       Dm            Em               F       G
People wonder why it leans the way it does

          C
That was us

           Am                G                     C
Seems like small towns never change but thing get tough when times get hard

         Am               G                 C
And they said when he got sick that old man Smith would have lost that farm

              Am             G                C
'Cause he was getting way behind on all his bills

            Am                      G               C
But someone came and brought his crops in from the fields

Dm                           Em                   F       G
Yeah folks 'round here still don't know who that was

          C    F    G         C    F     G
That was us

        C              F                  G
Cuttin' donuts in the field 'till old man Smith would call the cops

                 C                   F         
And  he'd  come  running  out with a shotgun 'cause we was 

G
running down his crops

    C              F                    G
Somebody said they saw some boys with a truck looked just like mine

          C                  F               G
Trying to pull down that old water tank sits out on the county line

          C    F    G
That was us

          C    F    G    C
