Country Boy Like Me Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D]

[Verse 1]
I've been [D]working in the city now,
where I've earned my first [A]pay.
I thought that when I came here,
it's where I'd like to [D]stay.
To see the sights and those bright
lights and travel all [G]around.
But [A]now I feel so lonely here and
I'm homeward [D]bound
This city [G]life ain't no place for
a [D]country boy like me
Where [G]you can't watch the river
flow or [D]see the tallest [A]tree
I [D]miss that old home cookin' and
the walks down by the [G]sea
This [A]city sure ain't no place for a
country boy like [D]me[G][A][D]
When I was young I couldn't wait
to ride on that freight [A]train
For I knew that it would take
me all the way to
Caro[D]lay
But now I'm here I'm not so sure
it's what I'd like to [G]do
This ain't [A]no place for a country
boy when he's got the [D]blues
This [G]city life ain't no place for
a [D]country boy like me
Where [G]you can't watch the river
flow or [D]see the tallest [A]tree
I [D]miss that old home quicken and
the walks down by the [G]sea
This [A]city sure ain't no place
for a country boy like [D]me
This [A]city sure ain't no place
for a country boy like [D]me
you
