In The Middle Lyrics & Chords By Rodney Atkins

Old gray fence, tar chipped road
Martins creek, I'm almost home
Whitetail buck by a one lane bridge
'Round the bend, up on the ridge

Theres Thompsons barn
Leanin' just a little

Miss Myras store, smell the barbecue
Make you stop for gas when you dont need to
At least 20 miles to the nearest town
Hills and hollers all around

And thats me, yeah, that's me
Right there in the middle

In the middle of what matters most
Fathers, Sons and the Holy Ghost
Open hearts and unlocked doors
Way of life worth fighting for

If you wonderin where Ill be
Take out a map of Tennessee
And youll find me
Right there in the middle, yeah

A wreck of wood stacked by the porch
Black lab pup scratching at the door
Two little boys sayin, 'Daddys back'
Next thing I know its a wrestling match

And thats me, yeah, man thats me
Right there

In the middle of what matters most
Fathers, Sons and the Holy Ghost
Open hearts and unlocked doors
Way of life worth fighting for

If you wonderin where Ill be
Take out a map of Tennessee
And youll find me
Right there in the middle

In middle of nowhere
Nowhere Id rather be
With the good Lord up above
And His earth beneath my feet, yeah

In the middle of what matters most
Fathers, Sons and the Holy Ghost
Open hearts and unlocked doors
Way of life worth fighting for

If you wonderin where Ill be
Take out a map of Tennessee
And youll find me
Right there in the middle
