  			Capo on the first fret 
A                 E  
Just the good ol' boys 
                 A 
Never meaning no harm 
      E                         B7     
Beats all you ever saw, been in trouble with the law 
                       E  
Since the day they was born 
 
E                                        A 
Straightening the curves, flattening the hills 
    E                           B7 
Someday the mountain might get 'em 
                  E 
But the law never will 
 
 
Chorus... 
             B7 
Making their way, any way they know how 
                                                E  
That's just a little bit more than the law will allow 
 
A              E 
I'm a good ol' boy 
                       A  
You know my mama loved me 
    E                                B7  
But she don't understand they keep a showin' my hands 
                   E 
And not my face on T.V. 
 
 
Verse from the movie... 
A                 E 
Just the good ol' boys 
                        A 
Wouldn't change if they could 
 E                         B7                    E  
Fightin' the system like a true modern day robin hood
