What I Claim chords by Upchurch

[Intro]

C Am C Am
 
[Verse 1]

            C
I ain't the best singer 

or the best lookin'
      Am
Ain't got a plan to 

make people listen to me
      C
Ain't no designer tellin' 

me what to wear
      Am
I hit Tractor Supply and 

get six of the same pair
   C
My claim to fame is 

a story in a page
    Am
Marijuana and some thoughts 

written down to explain
       C
From a day I lived and 

turned into a song
     Am
As I sit on a porch gettin' 

stoned at my farm
   C
29 years old, out livin' in a dream
    Am
Big fancy tour bus and 

millions of streams
              C
But I'm still in muddy water,

 way more than waist-deep
          Fm
I love my upbringin' and 

I ain't ashamed
 
[Chorus]

     C                    F
That I claim the rednecks and 

everywhere that's out on a mountain
    C                 
And I claim the rеbel flags, 
       F
flyin' high off a young 

man's Scottsdale cab
    C               
And I claim evеry

 good ol' boy with 
    F
homemade tattoos that 

he's still proud of
   Am         
It ain't how I dress, 
    G              F
naw it ain't how I sing
                   
It's how I tell 'em what 
  C    Am C Am
I claim
 
[Verse 2]

C
There'll never be 

another Johnny Cash
      Am
But I feel like him when 

I'm pissed-off mad
          C
In one of my muscle cars goin' 

way too fast
    Am
Not worried if a deer 

even kills my ass
     C
Then after a few miles, 

I quit bein' so wreckless
Am
Light me up a roach while 

I'm listenin' to Elvis
C
Like a hound dog hangin'

 out the window
Am
Still holdin' my soul 

'cause the devil

 can't get it
      C
Yeah, music ain't money 

'round here, no sir
         Am
It's the blood in our veins and

 a flag on the porch
    C
Red with a blue circle, 

holdin' three bright stars
       F
In the 615, ask who we are
 
[Chorus]

            C                     F
They'll say we claim the rednecks and 

everywhere that's 

out on a mountain
      C            
Yeah, we claim the rebel flags, 
       F
flyin' high off a 

young man's Scottsdale cab
    C               
And we claim every good ol' boy with 
    F
homemade tattoos that 

he's still proud of
         Am                                      
Yeah, it ain't how we dress, 
    G               F
and it ain't how we sing, 

it's how we tell 'em 
     C        F
what we claim
                       C        F
And hell naw, we ain't ashamed
 
[Bridge]

           C
Hopefully, one day, 

long from now
C
Way in the future, when 

I'm underground
C
A rebel child will discover the sound
     F
Of a Nashville-born, 

redneck loud-mouth
 
[Chorus]
             C       
And say that he claimed the 
             F
rednecks and everywhere that's 

out on a mountain
      C      
Yeah, he claimed the rebel flags, 
       F
flyin' high off his truck and 

he didn't get scared
    C                  
And he claimed every 

good ol' boy with 
  F
homemade tattoos like 

he had on his arm
         Am                               
Yeah, it ain't how he dressed, 
    G               F
and it ain't how he sang, 

it's how he told 
         C
'em what he claimed
