Gone Country

[Verse 1]
             G                      C         D                  G D C
She's been playing that room on the strip for ten years in Vegas
         G                     C        D             G D C
Every night she looks in the mirror but she only ages
             G                                 C                 D
She's been reading 'bout Nashville and all the records that everybody's
         G D C
buying
              G                  C        D            G D C
Say's I'm a simple girl myself grew up on Long Island
        Em               D
So she packs her bags to try her hand
      Em           D
Says this might be my last chance
 
[Chorus]
             G      C              D
She's gone country, look at them boots
             G      C              D
She's gone country, back to her roots
             G        C            D
She's gone country, a new kind of suit
             Em        N.C.
She's gone country, here she comes

[Verse 2]
           G                    C            D                 G D C
Well the folk scene's dead, but he's holding out in the village
           G                       C           D                  G D C
He's been writing songs, speaking out against wealth and privilege
        G                               C         D                  G D C
He says I don't believe in money, but a man could make him a killin'
       G                         C          D                  G D C
Cause some of that stuff don't sound much different than Dylan
     Em                 D
I hear down there its changed you see
        Em                  D
They're not as backwards as they used to be
 
[Chorus]
             G      C              D
He's gone country, look at them boots
             G      C              D
He's gone country, back to his roots
             G        C            D
He's gone country, a new kind of suit
            Em          N.C.
He's gone country, here he comes

[Verse 3]
    G                    C            D                G D C
He commutes to L.A., but he's got a house in the valley
         G                           C        D                   G D C
But the bills are piling up and the pop scene just ain't on a rally
              G                   C                   D
And he says honey I'm a serious composer,
             C              D    G D C
schooled in voice and composition
               G                      C
But with the crime and the smog these days
                D                G D C
this ain't no place for children
           Em                           D
Lord it sounds so easy, this shouldn't take long
      Em                            D
Be back in the money in no time at all
 
[Chorus]
             G      C              D
He's gone country, look at them boots
             G      C              D
He's gone country, back to his roots
             G        C            D
He's gone country, a new kind of suit
            Em          N.C.
He's gone country, here he comes

[Outro]
                G          C          D
Yeah he's gone country, a new kind of walk
             G        C           D
He's gone country, a new kind of talk
             G      C             D
He's gone country, look at them boots   
             G        C           D
He's gone country, aw back to his roots
             G           C          D
He's gone country
             G           C          D
He's gone country                   everybody's
         G           C              D
Gone country                       yeah we've gone
G           C           D
Country             the whole world's
G                       C                       D
Gone country
G                       C                       D
 
G                       C                       D
We gone
G                       C                       D
and fade...
