Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 For this song, play the  chord as a  and  as .  That's the way Brantley plays it
   Look at them boys in the back of that truck
   Somebody oughta jerk a knot in their butts
 Out  ridin around like they own this town
   Racket turned all the way up
   It's too early for school to let out
   The pastor's boy just threw his cigarette out
   Sure hope there ain't beer in them cups
   The all-star quarter backs turning them up
   Yeah them boys don't know one thing about life
   True love and trouble, stuggles and strides
   They think it's all just fun and games
   Like laws and rules are balls and chains
   Treat little girls like hearts don't break
   Treatin old men like hands don't shake
   I pray it's just a phase, they're goin through
 Oh but  what  are we gonna  do with them boys
   I heard ol' Frank's grandson got caught
   With a case full of beer at Smith-boy's barn
   Yall didn't hear all of this from me
   But I heard he got it with a fake ID
 Instrumental is the intro once again
   Lookin back on the times we've shared,
   Rockin and roll in these rockin chairs
   The same ones our granddaddy's sat  in
 Now this  old wood stone in this hardware store
   Talkin gossip, weather and war
   And how much trouble we were  in
 Oh you can  bet they  said it back  then
 Chorus one more time
 Outro is the chorus twice more with Brantley tagging lines like "Them boys
 (WIll)
