He's Mine

[D]Old man knocked on my front door
[C]With my teenage boy and a [G]couple more
[D]From up the road
He had him by the collar
Said he [C]caught him shootin' beer bottles
[G]Down in the holler and [D]smokin'
I said is[C] that ri[G]ght
He said, [D]they won't speak when spoken to
So [C]which one here be[G]longs to you
And I [D]know one does

'Cause they all started runnin'
To [C]your back forty
When they [G]saw me comin' on my [D]gator
I lo[C]oked in them in the eyes[G]
And I said, [D]he's mine that one
Got a [C]wild-hair side and [G]then some
There's [D]no surprise what he's done
He's [C]ever last bit of my [G]old man's son
If you [Bb]knew me then
There'd be no question in your [C]mind
You'd know [D]he's mine
Yeah he's

[D]Friday night football games
[C]I was livin' for the speakers
To [G]call the name
[D]On the back of number thirty-seven
Just [C]one-forty-five
And [G]five foot eleven
Maybe
[D]Limelight barely shined on him
But [C]everyone still r[G]emembers when
He [D]whooped up on that boy way bigger
For t[C]aking that cheap shot [G]our little kicker
And they [D]threw him out
Oh man, you shoulda,[C] you shoulda h[G]eard me shout
I yelled [D]he's mine that one
Got a[C] wild-hair side and [G]then some
It's no [D]surprise what he's done
He's [C]every last last bit of my [G]old man's son
And I'll [Bb]take the blame
And claim him every [C]time
Yeah man, [D]he's mine and he'll always be
    [C]                    NO CHORD
The best thing that ever happened to me
You can't [D]turn it off like electricity
I will [C]love him uncon[G]ditionally
And I'll [Bb]take the blame
And claim him every [C]time
Yeah, y'all, [D]he's mine  [C]
I thank God, [D]he's mine
