(see bottom for chords)
VERSE 1 (see below for guitar interlude played during verse)
Well I thought about the army
MIbmDad said, "Son you're fucking high"
DO# SOL#And I thought, yeah there's a first for everything
So I took my old man's advice, three sad semesters
MIbmIt was only fifteen grand
DO#spent in bed, I thought about the army
I dropped out and joined a band instead
CHORUS (piano solo)
MIbm SIbm SOL#maj7
VERSE 2 (same as verse 1 except for Fm chord)
Grew a moustache and a mullet
Got a job at chick-fillet
Citing artistic differences
the band broke up in May
FAmAnd in June reformed without me
And they got a different name
I nuked another grandma's apple pie
And hung my head in shame, no
CHORUS (listen to song for the arrangement of the chords)
Been thinking a lot today
Been thinking a lot today
BRIDGE
FA# DO# SOL#Oh Oh Think I'll write a screenplay
Oh Oh Think I'll take you to LA

HORN INTERLUDE ("")
VERSE 3 (same chords as previous verse)
In this time of introspection
On the eve of my election
I say to my reflection
God please spare me more rejection
'Cause my peers, they criticize me
And my ex-wives all despise me
Try to put it all behind me
But my redneck past is nipping at my heels
CHORUS (same as previous chorus)
ENDING
