Randy Houser - Route 3 Box 250 D

(intro)
D


(verse)
D
I'd like to say it was perfect
D
Growing up was a fairytale
D
But Hollywood don't make no movies
D                                 G
About a house up on wheels down a dirt road, Mississippi
                   D
Tucked back in the trees
      A            D
Route 3 Box 250 D


(verse)
D
Well the man my mama married
D
Had a mean streak in his blood
D
And when he took to drinking
D
He'd take it out on us
D           G
And I could hear my mama crying
                     D
That made it hard to sleep
      A           D

(chorus)
G              C        G
That's where I became a man
               D
Long before my time
G                  C          G
And since I left I ain't been back
                    A
But I go back in my mind


(verse)
      D
Thank God for Buford Bailey
D
He had a pond he'd let me fish
D
That's where I'd run off to
D
Every chance I'd get
            G
And I would pray that God was listening
                     D
And He'd come rescue me
      A          D

(bridge)
Bm                A                    G 
Then one day, my uncle pulled up in a pickup truck
F#m                 Em
Loaded up everything
F#m                    A
Wasn't much but it was everything



(chorus-out)

I'd like to say it was perfect
D
Growing up was a fairytale
D
But Hollywood don't make no movies
D                                 G
About a house up on wheels down a dirt road, Mississippi
                    D
Thats what made me "me"
      A              D
