Country Girl Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I was born in the country,
I was raised with the sun
The flowers were my pillow when
[C]the day's work was [G]done
Down in the valley shone
the bright neon signs
The [C]call of [Bm]the city [Em]life kept
[Am]going [D]through my mind
[G]Oh yeah, the[C] days of my chi[Bm]ldhood
[Em]would soon[Am] be le[D]ft behin[G]d

[Verse 2]
[G]
It was a Saturday morning when the
snow lay on the ground
Pa said the time had come
when I could move to town
So I kissed goodbye to mama,
held on tight to papa's hand
I [C]saw a tear in [Bm]mama's [Em]eye
but I [Am]did not [D]understand
[G]'Cause I was[C] just a country[Bm] girl[Em] being
[Am]brought up [D]on [C]the land
[Bm][Am][D][G]

[Verse 3]
Goodbye [C]mama, let me [D]see your smile
Wipe away that [B]teardrop from [Em]your eye
[G]I w[C]on't forg[A]et that I'm a c[G]ountry girl
[D]I g[G]ot to go, [D]but I hate to say goodbye
[C]So [G]lon[D]g, [G]pap[D]a,[G][C]
I'll be [D]seeing you
But I'll be coming home
[B]again som[Em]eday
No, I [C]won't for[A]get that I'm a [G]country girl
A country [D]girl, you know I'll
always [C]stay

I was [G]born in the country,
