[G]INTRO


[G]Legend has it years ago,

A sound was born and began to grow.
Old Tex and Buddy showed the way,[C]
And a [G]brand new beat was here to stay.


[G]Miles around you could hear it comin',

Steel guitars and a flat pick strummin'.
And it told the story of the workin' man,[C]
And the [G]beat spread out across the land.


The [C]western beat is a[G]live and kickin',
[D]Carrying on an [G]age old tradition.
The [C]good old boys are turnin' [G]up the [Em]heat,
And the [F]house is shakin' to the [C]western beat.[G]


So [G]come on boys, rosin up the bow,
There's fire in the fiddle and the old banjo.
Stoke it 'til you can hold it down,[C]
[G]Serve it up at the speed of sound.


The [C]western beat is a[G]live and kickin',
[D]Carrying on an [G]age old tradition.
The [C]good old boys are turnin' [G]up the [Em]heat,
And the [F]house is shakin' to the [C]western beat.


[G]INSTRUMENTAL


Well the [G]western beat is a freight train comin',

Across the land like a diesel hummin'.
And it tells the story of the workin' man,[C]
You can [G]still hear it ringin' out across the land.


Yeah the [C]western beat is a[G]live and kickin',
[D]Carrying on an [G]age old tradition.
The [C]good old boys are turnin' [G]up the [Em]heat,
Yeah the [C]western beat is a[G]live and kickin',
[D]Carrying on an [G]age old tradition.
The [C]good old boys are turnin' [G]up the [Em]heat,
And the [F]country's shakin' to the [C]western beat.[G]
