--VERSE 1:

A D C A
The old man was a good man, he raised his children right
A A E A
He taught us how to work hard and showed us how to fight
A A C D
Told me about the good Lord and when to use a gun
C G C
Made me very proud of where it is that I come from

--MAIN RIFF (x1)--

--CHORUS--

B-C D E G# A
When I die put my bones in the Dixie dirt
D E G# A
Look down on me smiling I don't want no feelings hurt
D E G# F#
All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar
C G A(stop)
I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar

--MAIN RIFF--

--VERSE 2:

A(stop) (banjo)
Years they rolled on by, the old man turned me loose
Way cross town I learned about them sad ol' country blues
D
Taught me how to prep my heart from trying to make it right
C G C
Told me not to ever break but one law at a time

--MAIN RIFF (x1)--

--CHORUS:

B-C D E G# A
When I die put my bones in the Dixie dirt
D E G# A
Look down on me smiling I don't want no feelings hurt
D E G# F#
All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar
C G A(stop)
I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar

--MAIN RIFF--

--BRIDGE:

F# D
Hope you'll wear me on your memory like a painted old tattoo
B E
I might not make no history book but I'll burn a page or two
Yeah

--CHORUS:

B-C D E G# A
When I die put my bones in the Dixie dirt
D E G# A
Look down on me smiling I don't want no feelings hurt
D E G# F#
All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar

I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar

I may not change the world ... but I'm gonna leave a scar
