Travis Tritt - Outlaws Like Us
[E]I was born a country singer
I love Charley Pride
Raised on 'He Stopped Loving Her'
Cut my [D]teeth [C#]on 'Mama [E]Tried'
[A]Yes I love Hank Wiliams
But I still love rock 'n roll
Hank [E]Jr, me, and Waylon,
We're all cut from the same mold
And [B]they say country's changin'
And we must all adjust
But [D]I still think there's [C#]lots of room
For [C]old Outlaws Like [E]Us.
[E]I love to jam with the Skynyrd band
Cause 'Freebird' chills my bones
And I've talked trash with Johnny Cash
And [D]I've sung with [C#]George [E]Jones
And [A]I have played on the Opry stage
Where the country legends stood
Where you [E]don't give lies or alibis
Cause they don't do no good
And [B]Lord I guess that I've been blessed
Travis but I have been kicked and cussed
But it's [D]nothing new to [C#]moan the blues
For [C]old Outlaws Like [E]Us.
Chorus:
And I [A]wear this country banner
And I'm proud to wave the flag
And you can [E]talk all day 'bout the next Billy Ray
But I'll cast my vote for Hag
And when [B]all those screamin' metal bands
Have corroded into rust
There'll still [D]be a show on [C#]Music Row
For [C]old Outlaws Like [E]Us.
[A] [E] [G] [A] [B] [E]
[E]Now I don't have a crystal ball
To tell what lies ahead
But I play my way though some folks say
[D]Country [C#]rock is [E]dead
And you [A]may call me old-fashioned
You may think I'm insane
But [E]rhythm and blues is in my blood
And pumping through my veins
And [B]I've still got some loyal fans
That I know I can trust
Who will [D]sell their souls for [C#]rock 'n roll
And [C]old Outlaws Like [E]Us.
Chorus2:
And I [A]wear this country banner
And I'm proud to wave the flag
And you can [E]talk all day bout the next Billy Ray
But I'll cast my vote for Hag
And when [B]all those dancin' rockin bands
Have decayed into the dust
There'll still [D]be a show on [C#]Music Row
For [C]old Outlaws Like [E]Us.
Yeah theres [D]scores and scores of [C#]dinosaurs
Who [C]love Outlaws Like [E]Us.
