I’m gonna be a country
girl again
E
1. The rain is falling lightly on the buildings
and the cars,
E7
I've
said goodbye to city friends, department stores and bars,
A
E
The
lights of town are at my back, my heart is full of stars,
B7 E
and
I'm gonna be a country girl again.
E
2. I've spent my time in study, oh I've taken
my degree,
E7
I've
memorized my formulae, my A's and B's and C's.
A E
But
what I've know came long ago, and not from such as these,
B7 E
I'm
gonna be a country girl again.
E A
E
Oh yes, I'm gonna be a country girl again,
B7
with an old brown dog, and a big front porch,
and rabbits in the pen.
E A
I tell you all the lights on Broadway don't
amount to an acre of green,
E
B7 E
and I'm gonna be a country girl again.
E
3. I've wandered through the hearts of men,
lookin' for a sign,
E7
that
here I might find happiness, I might find peace of mind.
A
E
The
one who taught my lesson was the south wind through the pines,
B7 E
and
I'm gonna be a country girl again.
E B7
A - E
+ CHORUS + And I'm gonna be a country girl again.
