Cody Johnson - Gotta Be Me: chords

F
I'm a long country mile from bein' in style
Dirty hat and cowboy boots
I cut my teeth on them old outlaw songs
My daddy used to listen to
                  A#  C
Guess it's in my genes
            F
I gotta be me

Yeah I say what I think
But sometimes I drink
And when I do, I drink too much
Wind up on my back
Eye shinin' black
And I know it's all because bad as it might be
Hey, I gotta be me

Chorus:
         A#
You can wine me up and dine me,
you can polish up and shine me
         F
But the real thing is goin’ shine through
         G
It ain’t always pretty but the cowboy in me
           C
couldn’t change if he wanted to

Yeah, I had a girl
Her name was Pearl
I think she's up in Arkansas
She raised her voice and gave me a choice
'Tween singin' in a honky-tonk or a J-O-B
As you can see, I gotta be me

Chorus:
Yeah, you can wine me up and dine me
You can polish up an shine me
But the real things gonna shine through
It ain't always pretty but the cowboy in me
Couldn't change if he wanted to

Yeah, I'm a rusty old truck
You see out front
'Tween the Lexus and the Coupe D'eville
The one of a kind that some try to find
Some are hopin' that they never will
Still I do my thing
'Cause I gotta be me
Yeah like it or not, this is all I got
I gotta be me
