That's Why Craig Morgan
Capo 3
[D] [A] [D] [A]
My [D]alarm goes off early, Can't afford to be late.
If I d[Bm]on't get a move on then i won't get paid.
So i t[C]hrow back those covers and g[G]et my butt ou[D]t of bed.
Its still d[D]ark when im leavin' so i let my lady sleep.
I know [Bm]her and them babies are countin on me
To put [C]food on the table and [G]keep this roof over ou[A]r head.
Chorus
Yeah, [D]that's why i get crackin' in the mornin'
F[A]ight all that traffic on I-40
Punch a [G]clock at a j[D]ob for a b[Em]oss that [D]i don't l[G]ike [A]
Yeah [D]that's why i keep swingin' that hammer
F[A]ight for each step i take on that ladder
[G]Break my [D]back for a s[Em]lice of that A[D]merican[G] pie [A]
Yeah, [D]that's why.[A]
Well, I w[D]ear a hard hat, steel-toed boots, and leather gloves
And my o[Bm]ffice is the front seat of a four-door truck
Deco[C]rated with crayon drawn [G]pictures all taped to the [D]dash
And our ju[D]nior pro football starts here in July
There'll be s[Bm]houlder pads, jerseys, and new cleats to buy
And my [C]wifes had her eye on some e[G]arrings i'd sure like h[A]er to have
Yeah i would..
Chorus
Yeah, [D]that's why i get crackin' in the mornin'
F[A]ight all that traffic on I-40
Punch a c[G]lock at a j[D]ob for a [Em]boss that [D]i don't l[G]ike [A]
Yeah t[D]hat's why i keep swingin' that hammer
F[A]ight for each step i take on that ladder
[G]Break my [D]back for a s[Em]lice of that Am[D]erican[G] pie [A]
Yeah, that'[D]s why.[A]
They want c[G]ell phones, [D]laptops, bal[Em]let shoes, and d[D]resses
[G]Xbox, Ip[D]ods and [Em]rock'n'roll drum lessons[A]
But, [D]that's why i get crackin' in the mornin'
F[A]ight all that traffic on I-40
Punch a [G]clock at a j[D]ob for a [Em]boss that [D]i don't l[G]ike [A]
Yeah tha[D]t's why i keep swingin' this hammer
F[A]ight for each step i take on this ladder
B[G]reak my [D]back for a s[Em]lice of that [D]America[G]n pie [A]
Yeah, t[D]hat's why.[A]
Yeah, t[D]hat's why[A] [D]
