I'm Gonna Be A Country Boy Again Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]The[F] ra[C]in is falling lightly on
the buildings and the cars
I said goodbye to city friends,
department stores, and bars
The [F]lights of town are [Bb]at my [F]back
My heart is full [C]of stars
And I'm [G]gonna be a country boy [C]again[G]

[Verse 2]
Yes, I'm [C]gonna be [F]a country boy [C]again
With an old, brown dog,
and a big front porch
And rabbits in [G]the pen; I tell you

[Verse 3]
[C]All the lights in the city don't
amoun[F]t to an acre of green
And I'm [C]gonna be a [G]country
boy [C]again

[Verse 4]
I've spent [C]some time in study and I've
taken my degrees
I've memorized my formulæ
My A's, and B's, and C's

[Verse 5]
But [F]what I know came [Bb]long ago
[F]And not from such as [C]these
So I'm [G]gonna be a country boy again
[C]

[Verse 6]
[F]
[C]I've wondered in the hearts of man
Looking for a sign
In which I might learn happiness
I might know peace of mind

[Verse 7]
The [F]only one [Bb]that taught me [F]was
the southland through [C]the pines
So I'm [G]gonna be a country boy [C]again
[G]Oh, yes, I'm

[Verse 8]
[C]gonna be
[F]a country boy [C]again
With an old, brown dog,
and a big front porch
And rabbits in [G]the pen; I tell you

[Verse 9]
[C]All the lights in the city don't
amoun[F]t to an acre of green
So I'm [C]gonna be a [G]country boy again
[C][F]
