[Verse 1]
             A* 
Got a little southern drawl in my talk
       D*
Little pickup truck on my highway
             A*
Got a little boot stomp in my walk
       D*
Little neon light in my Friday
         A*
Got some Tennessee in my whiskey
        D7
Raise a cup up if you with me

[Chorus]
      A                
I was raised on Merle, raised on Willie
       D
Got my Honky Tonk attitude from Joe Diffie
A
Daddy did too, it's family tradition
   D
If someone cranks it up, you can't help but listen
A                         D
My upbringing sounds like George Strait singing
      A
And I gotta give props to the radio
'Cause if you know me... I was raised on country (there's no strumming after the line ending in "radio")

[Verse 2]
              A*
It's the only reason that I survived
      D*
Every breakup and every party
         A*
It's the soundtrack to my life
D7
It runs deep in my DNA

[Chorus]
      A                
I was raised on Merle, raised on Willie
       D
Got my Honky Tonk attitude from Joe Diffie

And I gotta give props to the radio
              D-D                               A (for solo)
'Cause if you know me... I was raised on country

[Solo]
                                          (This bit is awfully muddy because he sings over it and it's
                                           very repetitive.  Just work in the bends as you see fit.)

[Interlude] (no guitar)

(I was raised on country music)
Learned a lot about living and a little 'bout love
(Raised on country music)
And you know that's something I'm so proud of
