[Verse] G She was everybody's small town queen C Nothing short of a Lone Star daydream G Hiding from just a little north east C I guess I was born to run, I was born on Springsteen G Super sweet, always blessing my heart C Says a prayer riding in my car G Trying not to cuss 'cause she says its rude N.C. I'm an Empire State, I don't mind my attitude [Chorus] G C I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know Em Was it when you couldn't help but kiss me? C I've felt more rich than The Wolf of Wall Street G C I'll never know, never know, never know Em How a boy like me got you, baby C I did pretty damn good for a damn Yankee [Verse] G Never thought I'd be moving down here C Meeting in the middle with you, my dear G A change of pace and the shifting gears N.C. Yeah, I love Tennessee, but I ain't no volunteer [Chorus] G C I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know Em Was it when you couldn't help but kiss me? C I've felt more rich than The Wolf of Wall Street G C I'll never know, never know, never know Em How a boy like me got you, baby C I did pretty damn good for a damn Yankee [Guitar Solo] G C Em C [Bridge] G Pretty damn good G Pretty damn good C You and me, we got it pretty damn good Em Pretty damn good Em Pretty damn good C You and me, we got it pretty damn good [Chorus] C I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know Em Was it when you couldn't help but kiss me? C I've felt more rich than The Wolf of Wall Street G C I'll never know, never know, never know Em How a boy like me got you, baby C I did pretty damn good for a damn Yankee [Outro] G (Pretty damn good) C (Pretty damn good) Woo C (Pretty damn good) Em (Pretty damn good) Oh, yeah Em (Pretty damn good) Em (Pretty damn good) C N.C. Pretty damn good for a damn Yankee
