            D        D/F#  G
What's the point of forty  acres if you got
        A     Bm
it all to yourself?
        D        D/F#        G
What's singing along to a Strait song if
                              D
you ain't singing with no one else?

I ain't ever seen a pick up without
a shotgun seat
And I never looked at it that way till
the day you looked at me

Chorus:
        F      D/F#         G
I know how to build a house on a hill,
                 A      D
but what would that be worth?
                D/F#      G
If I come back home and swing alone on
           A       D
my little piece of earth
           D       D/F#        G
Yeah, the more it turned, the more I learned,
            A     Bm
no matter what I do
      D        D/F#  G                  D D/F# G A D
There ain't no I in country, but there's a Y-O-U

Yeah, I light up when you catch one, hell,
it's the background on my phone
And now I can't stand sittin' in a stand
if I'm sitting in it all alone

I could break some ground, build half
the town, like a blue collar dream come true
Yeah, I can make a name but what's
a name without a country girl to give it to?

Chorus:
I know how to build a house on a hill,
but what would that be worth?
If I come back home and swing alone
on my little piece of earth
Yeah, the more it turned, the more I learned,
no matter what I do
There ain't no I in country,
but there's a Y-O-U, yeah
A Y-O-U

         D        D/F#   G
When it comes to Sunday morning
              A          Bm
I've always thanked the Lord
          D     D/F#            G
But ever since you, I've got a reason to
Thank him even more

Chorus:
I know how to build a house on a hill,
but what would that be worth?
If I come back home and swing alone on
my little piece of earth
Yeah, the more it turned, the more
I learned, no matter what I do
There ain't no I in country, but there's a Y-O-U
There ain't no I in country, but there's a Y-O-U

You, yeah, yeah
