INTRO: guitar start
Verse 1
I was raised off of old Route 3
Out past where the blacktop ends
We'd walked to church on Sunday morning
Race barefoot back to Johnson's fence in with rimclick 2-4
That's where I first saw Mary
On that roadside pickin' blackberries
That summer I turned a corner in my soul
Down that BUILD start, to snare red dirt road
Chorus full on
It's where I drank my first beer
It's where I found Jesus
Where I wrecked my first car
I tore it all to pieces
I learned the path to heaven
is full of sinners and believers
Learned that happiness on earth
ain't just for high achievers
I've learned I've come to know
There's life at both ends BREAK
Of that red dirt road IN
Verse 2
Her daddy didn't like me much
With my shackled up GTO
I'd sneak out in the middle of the night
Throw rocks at her bedroom window
We'd turn out the headlights
Drive by the moonlight
Talk about what the future might hold
Down a red dirt road
Chorus
no break, build through red dirt road
Bridge drop down, kick, hat, rim click 2-4
I went out into the world, and I came back in
I lost Mary, oh I got her back again
in Snare And driving home tonight feels like I've found a long lost friend build
Chorus DROP, only 4 on snare
It's where I drank my first beer
It's where I found Jesus
Where I wrecked my first car
BUILD I tore it all to pieces
I learned the path to heaven
is full of sinners and believers
Learned that happiness on earth
ain't just for high achievers
I've learned I've come to know
There's life at both ends
Of that red dirt road
Yes I've learned I've come to know
There's life at both ends BREAK
Of that red dirt road IN
play full out, end together
