[Verse]
        D                                         G
He was named by my grandma she got it from the bible
        D                                   G
And he passsed it to me like grandaddy's rifle
          D
Raised me up like sweet corn
                G
Created a disciple
        D
Yeah I fought it like hell
                    G
Hell he became a rival
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
        Em
Yeah I tried to be different
 Bm                  G
Tried to go against the grain
 
        Em
Didn't make no difference
Bm               G
I just ended up the same
 
 
[Chorus]
D                          G
 I've never known betteeeeeeeer then
D                          G
 'Cause every bone's tetheeeeered
 
           D
You wanna change my name
                A
Gotta drain my blood
G
God damn, I am my father's

[Verse]
     D                                      G
Yeah I left town just to get out of his shadow
          D                                        A  G
And he'd send me a twenty just to get back on the saddle
      D                                        G
I put up a good fight but I didn't win the battle
             D                    A              G
I guess the tree don't grow very far from the apple

[Pre-Chorus]
             Em                      Bm               G
I wear his blue jean jacket and his name like a badge of honor
   Em                        Bm
I used to hate being called Junior
    G
But I don't mind any longer
