verse 1 
G                               C                             G       C 
By now I think I've heard every line there is to hear 'bout a truck 
    G                           C                            G                  C 
And I've got the point that the beer tastes good when you're down on your luck 
Em               D                          C                       G 
But don't get me wrong a summer song sounds good when you're on the shore 
          Em             D                     C                    D 
But every now and then I wanna dig in and hear something that means something more 

 
C             G         D                G 
Like a mama's love even when she don't approve 
C        G                      D 
Four generations sittin' on the same church pew 
C           G                D                     Em 
A soldier's first steps back through his own front door 
      C                    D         G     C 
Yeah, something that means something more 

verse 2 
G                     C                          G       C 
It's amazing how this old guitar can say so many things 
    G            C                            G                  C 
It can laugh, it can cry, it can bring you fortune and fame 
Em               D                          C            G 
But now as I'm sittin' down strummin' out these chords 
    Em             D         C                    D 
I'm praying that it's saying something that means something more 


C                 G        D                  G 
Like a long lost friend on the other end of the line 
C              G                      D 
A daddy's eyes when he holds his baby for the first time 
C           G         D               Em 
Grandpa goin' to meet Grandma and the Lord 
      C                    D         G     C 
Yeah, something that means something more 

C              G        D        G 
Saying "I do," puttin' that ring on, 
C           G    D 
Gettin' the news that the cancer's gone 
C           G              D                   Em 
Knowing that man up on the cross in a crown of thorns 
      C                    D         G 
Yeah, something that means something 
    C                    D          G 
Oh, something that means something 
C                    D         G     C 
Something that means something more
