[Verse]
G                               G7
Just another four wheels on the two lane off to work
         C                Bm                       Am                   D
Just an- other lunch box, punch the clock, with my name across my shirt
G                      G/F
Radio spills the news, superman has got the blues
  C                   Bm          C                 Bm
I guess you just lose touch, when too much ain't e- nough
        Am                  Bm                    D
And all that stuff is gonna turn to dust and sand in the end

[Chorus]
      G    Am   C                 D
But a real man, loves his God and Momma
       G        Am C                     D
Yes, a real man is thirsty for the truth
  Em   Bm     C               Bm
A real man is faithful to his woman
Am                    Bm               D
'Cause that's what he saw his Daddy do
     C                    Bm
In a world where love and heroes fade away
Am D             G
I wanna be John Wayne

[Verse]
G                       G/F
After my day is done, I lay down with my only one
C                   Bm                   Am D
Girl there ain't no holdin' back the sun
G                                G/F
As I watch her sleepin', loves a promise that's worth keepin'
    C              Bm        C               D
And holdin' it to- gether by holdin' on for- ever
      Am              Bm               D
Girl, that never ever ever let you go, that's my code

[Chorus]
         G    Am  C                 D
'Cause a real man loves his God and Momma
       G    Am     C               D
Yes, a real man is thirsty for the truth
  Em   Bm     C               Bm
A real man is faithful to his woman
Am                    Bm               D
'Cause that's what he saw his Daddy do
     C                    Bm
In a world where love and heroes fade away
Am D             Eb
I wanna be John Wayne
        F                G       Am Bm        C Eb F
Woooah, you make me feel strong, so strong

[Chorus/Outro]
      G    G/F  C                 D
And a real man, loves his God and Momma
       G    G/F    C               D
Yes, a real man is thirsty for the truth
  Em   Bm     C               Bm
A real man is faithful to his woman
Am                    Bm               D
'Cause that's what he saw his Daddy do
     C                    Bm               Am D
In a world where love and heroes fade away
           C                Bm                  Am
Woooahh, I wanna ride right in and save the day

I wanna be John Wayne
  D             G     G/F Em
I wanna be John Wayne

I wanna be John Wayne
