             D
Well, there ain't a pair of boots in
my closet that ain't scuffed up and
walked right through the soles
          G
And there ain't a pair of jeans that
ain't hanging on by the seams and full of holes
         C            G                  D
I ain't never been inside a three-piece suit
        C               G                 D
And my collar's just a worn out shade of blue

Chorus:
          D
I try to beat the morning sun out of the bed
Then I work like hell til the sun goes down
and then I rest my head
                  G
Next to the most beautiful thing you've ever seen
Lord only knows what she means to me,
solid as the rock on her left hand
       C
She's proud to be my woman
  G              C              D
That's why I'm proud to be her man

She's flowers in her hair on Sunday morning
She's a Bud Light in her hand on Friday night
She's cornbread in the oven
She's wild and crazy, lovin' me just right
Oh, you know that's right
She ain't afraid to put me in my place
And she ain't afraid to love me every night
so every day

Chorus

        Em                                    G
She can rock a dress in cowboy boots, make a rolling
stone wanna plant some roots
          Em                                A
She's the one thing that I can't afford to lose

Chorus:
So I try to beat the morning sun out of the bed
And I work like hell 'til the sun goes down
and then
I rest my head next to the most beautiful
thing you've ever seen
Lord only knows what she means to me
The reason I keep this ring on my left hand
She's proud to be my woman
That's why I'm proud to be her man
She's proud to be my woman
And that's why I'm proud to be her man
