G                Am
I was afraid to lay it down
C                      G
But I had to let go so I could be found
G                 Am
I wandered so far away from me
C                      G
Took a trip around the world to see


[Chorus]
G                 Am       C                G
Yeah, I've got an old soul and my roots run deep
G                 Am
Yeah‚ I'm just a good ol' boy and
C                  G
God's been good to me


[Verse 2]
G                         Am
We can't be all things to everyone
C                        G
I know I've tried before it can't be done
G                       Am
But I am exactly who He wants me to be
C                        G
Can't believe it took me this long to see


[Chorus]
G                 Am       C                G
Yeah‚ I've got an old soul and my roots run deep
G                 Am
Yeah‚ I'm just a good ol' boy and
C                  G
God's been good to me


[Post-Chorus]
G                      Am
Hey-hey-hey, yeah
         C             G
Hey-hey-hey, yeah
                       Am
Hey-hey-hey‚ yeah
         C             G
Hey-hey-hey


[Bridge]
G                      Am
Just a Georgia boy in Tennessee
C                      G
Finding my way back to me


[Chorus]
G                 Am       C                G
Yeah, I've got an old soul and my roots run deep
G                 Am
Yeah, I'm just a good ol' boy and
C                  G
God's been good to me
                   G           Am       C                G
Hey-hey-hey‚ yeah, I've got an old soul and my roots run deep, yeah
           Am
I'm just a good ol' boy and
C                  G
God's been good to me
       Am
Just a good ol' boy and
C                  G
God's been good to me


[Outro]
G                         Am
Hey, hey-hey-hey, yeah
         C                G
Hey-hey-hey, yeah
G               Am       C       G
He's been good, so good
