[Verse]

      G
Every time I see a young man catch a copperhead
  D
I always think of the Steve Earl Band, yeah
C               G
Copperhead Road
      Bm                    D
Don't lie, you already know
           C           G
And when I see a young girl in a hand-me-down sedan
       A                D
With a Brownin' sticker on the back, I smile and grin
        C       G
Cause I know
      Em
She's chasing a hella hit song

[Chorus]

D         G
Chasin' a boy with a troubled-fun grin
                Em                         D
A fresh flannel shirt with the tail tucked in
        G
And his run's gonna turn to a jog
                  Em                   D
And a good girl's gonna make a bad boy fall
           G
Before you know it she's your country star
              Em                    D
Born in Music City from the country parts
       G
No red carpet in this field to fall
             Em                   D         G
They're just walkin' right into a hella hit song

[Verse]

     G
If I never grew up on the outskirts
     G                              D
This good old boy probably couldn't write a verse
               G
It's been some heartbreak nights, some parkin' lot fights
        Em   D
Petrol, beer runs, and girls dressin' for the one they like
C         G
Her daddy sayin', "Hold up, where you going?"
     Em                     E
Even though he knows he was one of them ones
           C              G
And that's how he met her momma when they had their first kiss
        D
Walkin' down the same path, hummin' somethin' like

[Chorus]

          C                       G
Chasin' a boy with a troubled-fun grin
                Em                         D
A fresh flannel shirt with the tail tucked in
              C
And his run's gonna turn to a jog
G                 Em                   D
And a good girl's gonna make a bad boy fall
           C                          G
Before you know it she's your country star
              Em                    D
Born in Music City from the country parts
       C              G
No red carpet in this field to fall
             Em                 D           C
They're just walkin' right into a hella hit song

[Bridge]

G Em D
           C           G
If there's one thing I learned 'bout livin' out here
     G
It's more than cold beer and the color of a John Deere
G
More than a boy in a truck bein' crazy
       G
If sometimes he didn't ride with a sweet young lady

[Chorus]

                  C                       G
Who was chasin' a boy with a troubled-fun grin
        Em                                 D
A fresh flannel shirt with the tail tucked in
              C
And his run's done turned to a jog
G                  Em                   D
And that good girl sure makes a bad boy fall
           C                         G
Before you know it he's your country star
                Em                    D
Singin' out his heart for the country parts
       C              G
No red carpet in this field to fall
             Em                 D              C
They're just walkin' right into some hella hit songs
