Country Girl

(início)

INTRO:
Am G C  C G C  F C G  C  C
VERSE:
       F   C        G
Oh my Daddy’s from Memphis
G           F       C    G
He used to hunt in Arkansas
 G           F        C       G
And then he moved to New York City
                Am      F  C  G
That’s where he met my Mom
G             F       C      G    G
He wrote his Mom  and Dad a letter
 G          F          C          G
“I’ll be a millionaire by twenty-five”
G              F          C          G
I don’t know which one of us dreams bigger
            Am    G    F   C  G
I have his heart and drive
PD-C HORUS:
 G     Am              C
And he always told me and my sisters
               F        C      G
When we were scared to bait a hook
 G               Am            C
Girls you don’t want to be no city slickers
CHORUS:
G         Am  G   C
So I’m a country girl
             C             G
I love the trees and the flowers
       C           G
Those well-spent hours
        F           G
Staring up at the stars
          Am  G   C
Oh I’m a country girl
          C           G
Though I live in the city
           C             G
And those lights are so pretty
         Am G C  C  G  C
But I’d happily rather be
        F             G                C   C
Sitting on the porch picking on my guitar
INSTRUMENTAL:
Am G C         C G C             F   C   G  C
      Mmm mm mm     Mmm mm mm   Mmm mmm mmm
VERSE:
        F      C     G
Oh my Grandma was a lady
            F           C         G
She always wore dress suits and pearls
               F          C   G
Our favorite treat was a ladyfingers
                F    C  G
And I have her curls
        F      C        G
And my Mama’s from Australia
             F       C     G
And she grew up without a Dad
            F        C
And so she raised a hope
      G                Am    F  C  G
That gave us what she never had
PD-C HORUS:
            Am            G        C
And on the farm where I spent my childhood
        F           C      G
Riding horses and writing songs
         Am          G
Oh, I’m still that child
             C         F  C  G
And that’s still where I belong
CHORUS:
              Am  G   C
‘Cause I’m a country girl
             C             G
I love the trees and the flowers
       C           G
Those well-spent hours
        F           G
Staring up at the stars
          Am  G   C
Oh I’m a country girl
          C           G
Though I live in the city
           C                G
And those lights sure are pretty
         Am G C  C  G  C
But I’d happily rather be
        F             G                C   C   C
Sitting on the porch picking on my guitar
OUTRO:
         Am G  C    C  G C
I would rather be, happily
        F       C     G                C   C
Sitting on the porch picking on my guitar
