Dirt Road Diary Chords

   
This tab is based off the live acoustic version he posted on youtube, but the only 
difference between it and the studio version is the studio version is a half step 
higher. In other words, just put your Capo on the first fret and use the same 
chords for the studio version. I personally think the live acoustic version is way 
better but that's just my opinion.  Either way these chords will work for ya. If you want 
to hear how I do it, ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4WG3b9lSa4 ) is the link to my cover. Or 
here's the video of Luke doing it ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqrp1ja6APs )

Dirt Road Diary - Luke Bryan (Open or Capo 1)

Intro: G D Cadd9 x2                       

G                  D                      Cadd9
Me and daddy ride around all day shooting doves off a line in a Chevrolet.
G                          D                  Cadd9
Old lab would jump out the back and fetch 'em up.
G              D                         Cadd9
We'd drive for miles and miles and never once hit blacktop or change the dial.
G                  D                     Cadd9
One little country station was all there was.
Em7            D             Cadd9
Checking gates, fixing fence rows that's how my story goes.

Chorus:
Em7            D             Cadd9                                  D
If you want to know the real me, just turn the page in my dirt road diary.
Em7              D                     Cadd9                                D
It's right there for you to see, every kiss, every beer, every cotton field memory.
G                 D            Cadd9                                  D
Tan legs and some Dixie land delight, ridin' round, windows down on a summer night.
Em7          D           Cadd9 (strum once)                    G D Cadd9
I was there, that was me. Its right here in my dirt road diary.

verse 2:
G                 D              Cadd9
I remember when I turned sixteen; I got a license and some gasoline.
        G                        D             Cadd9
Ain't a curve or a straight away we didn't fly down.
G                         D             Cadd9
If wasn't the boys it was me and her by fire in a field or down by the river.
G                  D                 Cadd9
Every inch of that county was sacred ground.
Em7               Cadd9
Wish I knew where that old truck was.
G
If it could talk it could tell on us.

Chorus:
Em7         D                   Cadd9                               D
If you want to know the real me, just turn the page in my dirt road diary.
Em7              D                     Cadd9                                D
It's right there for you to see, every beer, every kiss, every cotton field memory.
G                 D            Cadd9                                  D
Tan legs and some Dixie land delight, ridin' round, windows down on a summer night.
Em7          Cadd9            G                D
I was there, that was me. Its right here in my dirt road diary.

Bridge:
Em7                                Cadd9
     It ain't a book underneath my bed;
       Em7          D          Cadd9
Just a dusty memory lane in my head.

G D Cadd9 x2

G                 D            Cadd9
Tan legs and some Dixie land delight, ridin' round, windows down on a summer night.
Em7          D            Cadd9
I was there, that was me. Its right here in my dirt road diaries.

Em7                   D                      Cadd9 (strum once)
Just ride around this little town and you'll see how I wrote my dirt road diary.
