INTRO: [D] [D/F#] [G] [A] (x2)
[D]I learned how to write it, when [G]I first started [A]school
Some [D]bully didn't l[D/F#]ike it, he said it [G]didn't sound too [A]cool-[Bbaug]-
[Bm]So I had to [A]hit him, and all I [G]said when the blood [A]came
It's my [G]last name [D/F#] [Em7] [Asus4]-[A]
Grandpa [D]took it off to Europe, to fight the [G]Germans in the [A]war
It [D]came back on some [D/F#]dog tags, no[G]body wears no [A]more-[Bbaug]-
[Bm]It's written on a [A]headstone, in the [G]field where he was [D/A]slain
It's my [Em7]last name [D/F#] [Em7] [Asus4]
CHORUS:
Passed [G]down from generations, [A]too far back to [D]trace
I can [G]see all my re[D/F#]lations, when I [Em7]look into my [A]face
[Bbaug]-[Bm]May never make it [A]famous, but I'll [G]never bring it [D/A]shame
It's my [Em7]last name [D/F#] [Em7] [Asus4]-[A]
[D]Daddy always told me, far [G]back as I re[A]call
[D]Son you're part of [D/F#]something, [G]you represent us [A]all-[Bbaug]-
[Bm]So keep it how you [A]got it, as [G]solid as it [D/F#]came
It's my [Em7]last name [D/F#] [Em7] [Asus4] [A]
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL: [Em7] [D/F#] [Em7] [Asus4]-[A]
[D]So darlin if you're wonderin, why I've [G]got you here to[A]night
[D]I wanna be your [D/F#]husband, I want [G]you to be my [A]wife-[Bbaug]-
[Bm]Ain't got much to [A]give you, but what I've [G]got means every[D/A]thing
It's my [Em7]last name [D/F#] [Em7] [Asus4]
Oh it's my [G]last name [D/F#] [Em7] [Asus4]
[D]I learned how to write it, when [G]I first started [A]school [D]
