[Intro]
G G G G
G Cadd9
G Cadd9
[Verse]
G
Damn it, if last night I had a bloodline
Cadd9
Full of a good time again
G
Liquor and neon, guitar to pick on
Cadd9
A bar stool to sit on, playing for tips
G
I guess I've had it in me
Cadd9
Every damn day since the start
Em G
'Cause when it came time for the night
Cadd9 D
Put that wristband on my arm
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
It wasn't just some family hand-me-down
Em D
'Cause I'm one of a kind
Cadd9 G
It wasn't some name from the Bible days
Em D
'Cause that ain't quite my style
Cadd9 G
I guess the first time mama held me
Em D
She could see it in my eyes
Cadd9 G
She named me after two flowers
D G Cadd9
'Cause I was born to be wild
[Verse]
G
And this life that I weave through, I don't know how she knew
Cadd9
I'd need a deep roots name
G
That's a little bit sweet too, so when I'm in these boots
Cadd9
Shootin' the 80 proof, I don't need to chase
G Cadd9
And that I was made to blow in that three-sheet wind
G Cadd9 D
It must've had a ring to it and felt like the perfect fit
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
It wasn't just some family hand-me-down
Em D
'Cause I'm one of a kind
Cadd9 G
It wasn't some name from the Bible days
Em D
'Cause that ain't quite my style
Cadd9 G
I guess the first time mama held me
Em D
She could see it in my eyes
Cadd9 G
She named me after two flowers
D G G Cadd9
'Cause I was born to be wild
G G Cadd9
'Cause I was born to be wild, yeah
[Break]
D
I didn't have my story yet
Cadd9
But guess she knew I would
D
But you don't need no stage name
Cadd9 D
When your mama does that good, no
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
It wasn't just some family hand-me-down
Em D
'Cause I'm one of a kind
Cadd9 G
It wasn't some name from the Bible days
Em D
'Cause that ain't quite my style
Cadd9 G
I guess the first time mama held me
Em D
She could see it in my eyes
Cadd9 G D
She named me after two flowers
G G Cadd9
'Cause I was born to be wild
G G Cadd9
'Cause I was born to be wild, yeah
Cadd9 G G G
'Cause I was born to be wild
