F                 C             G
In the middle of what matters most
F            C         G
Father sons and holy ghosts
F            C            G
Open hearts and unlocked doors
F            C              G
Way of life worth fightin' for
F             G                 C
If you're wondering where I'll be

Check out the mouth of Tennessee
and you'll find me right there in the middle.  Yeah!

A wreck of wood
Stacked by the porch
Black lab pup
Scratchin at the door
Two little boys
Yelling daddy's back
Next thing I know
Its a wrestling match
And thats me
Yeah man that's me
Right there in the middle

Chorus


In the middle of nowhere

Nowhere I'd rather be

With the good lord up above me

And his earth beneath my feet.

Chorus
