[Verse 1]
  C                                              F
I grew up with just a few heroes back when I was small
   C                                         F
My daddy, and both of my grandpas, but that wasn't all
       G                                        Em  F
When I got my first guitar, the first song that I ever played
                C    F  C   F  G  F
Was by George Strait
 
 
[Verse 2]
          C                                             F
I started picking 'round town, I'd go down to the ol' rodeo
    C                                        F
I'd sing Amarillo, and all of the songs that they'd know
       G                                       Em         F
When I played for a crowd, well, they'd always cheer loud for me
              C
When I played Strait country
      F           G  F
Oh, Strait country
 
 
[Chorus]
            G
There ain't no other guy
    F
Who quite changed my life
  G
I sang right along
         F
With his style and his songs
   G         Em       F
He made an impression on me
      C
Oh, Strait country
    F             G  F
Oh, Strait country
 
 
[Verse 3]
      D                                         G
Well, I packed up for Music City when I was nineteen
        D                                           G
Left my band, and a girlfriend, oh Lord, it was so hard to leave
      A                      G
But I took every record that he ever made
    A                 G
And I told myself I'd make it someday
       A          F#m     G
'Cause all that I wanted to be
      D           Em  D
Was Strait country
 
 
[Chorus]
            A
There ain't no other guy
    G
Who quite changed my life
  A
I sang right along
         G
With his style, and his songs
   A         D         G
He made an impression on me
        D
Yeah, Strait country
      G
Oh, Strait country
  D
Strait country
      G           A  G  A
Oh, Strait country
 
 
[Outro]
  D                                              G
I grew up with just a few heroes back when I was small
   D                                          G
My daddy and both of my grandpas, but that wasn't all
