Intro
G C D G C D G C D F C G

Verse 1
Well, I was G rollin' wheels and shiftin gears 'C round that Jersey D Turnpike
When G Barney stopped me with his gun, ten C minutes after D midnight
Said G sir, you broke the limit in this C rusty ol' truck D
I don't C know about that accent son, just D where NC did you come from?

Chorus 1
I said where G I come, from it's C cornbread and D chicken
Where G I come from, a lotta C front porch D sittin'
Where G I come from, C tryin' to make a D livin'
And F workin' hard to get to C heaven, where I come G from.

Verse 2
Well, I was G south of Detroit City, I pulled C in this country D kitchen
To G try their brand of barbecue, the C sign said finger-Dlickin'
Well, I G paid the tab and the lady asked me C how'd I like my D biscuit
I'll be C honest with you ma'am, it D ain't NC like mama fixed it.

Chorus 2
Cause where G I come from, it's C cornbread and D chicken
Where G I come from, a lotta C front porch D pickin'
Where G I come from, C tryin' to make a D livin'
And F workin' hard to get to C heaven, where I come G from.
