^A Well I learned how to walk and I ^D learned how to ^A run in Bak ^E ers ^A field

^A I tasted my first ^D taste of rom ^A ance in Bak ^E ers ^A field
I ^A learned how to fight and I ^D learned how to ^A dance in Bak ^E ers ^A field
Dancin? on beer ca ^A n hil ^D l ^A
Overlookin? ^A Bak ^E ersf ^A ield
Remembering ^A my ^D first ^A thrill
Dancin? on ^A Beer ^E Can ^A Hill
I made part of my livin in a honky tonk bar in Bakersfield
Picked a little cotton and a lotta guitar in Bakersfield
Well you couldn?t do better but you won?t do bad in Bakersfield
Slow dancin? out here is sort of a fad in Bakersfield
Solo
Key Change - Move Capo to 3 and play same songs
I drank a lot of beer since I was a kid in Bakersfield
Did a little time over things I did in Bakersfield
10 years later made me of the year in Bakersfield
And I?m duckin and dodgin? and dancin? out here in Bakersfield
