G C D (riff)
She's been playing that room on the strip for ten years in Vegas
G C D (riff)
Every night she looks in the mirror but she only ages
She's been readin[G]g 'bout Nashville and all the records that everyb[C]ody's [D]
(riff)
buying
G C D (riff)
Say's I'm a simple girl myself grew up on Long Island
So she pack[Em]s her bags to try her han[D]d
Says thi[Em]s might be my last[D] chance
She's gone countr[G]y, look at t[C]hem boots [D]
She's gone countr[G]y, back to [C]her roots [D]
She's gone countr[G]y, a new ki[C]nd of suit [D]
Em NC
She's gone country, here she comes
(Riff x 2)
G C D (riff)
Well the folk scene's dead, but he's holding out in the village
G C D (riff)
He's been writing songs, speaking out against wealth and privilege
G C D (riff)
He says I don't believe in money, but a man could make him a killin'
G C D (riff)
Cause some of that stuff don't sound much different than Dylan
I hear do[Em]wn there its changed[D] you see
They're not a[Em]s backwards as they used to b[D]e
He's gone country[G], look at th[C]em boots [D]
He's gone country[G], back to hi[C]s roots [D]
He's gone country[G], a new kind[C] of suit [D]
Em NC
He's gone country, here he comes
(Riff x 4)
G C D (riff)
He commutes to L.A., but he's got a house in the valley
G C D (riff)
But the bills are pilling up and the pop scene just ain't on a rally
[G]And he says honey I'm a serious composer schooled in vo[C]ice and [D]
(Riff)
composition
[G]But with the crime and the smog these days this ain't no[C] place for [D]
(Riff)
children
Lord it sou[Em]nds so easy, this shouldn't t[D]ake long
Be bac[Em]k in the money in no time at a[D]ll
He's gone country[G], look at th[C]em boots [D]
He's gone country[G], back to hi[C]s roots [D]
He's gone country[G], a new kind o[C]f suit [D]
Em NC
He's gone country, here he comes
(Riff x 2)
Yeah he's gone country, [G]a new kind of w[C]alk [D]
He's gone country[G], a new kind o[C]f talk [D]
He's gone country[G], look at th[C]em boots [D]
He's gone country[G], aw back to his [C]roots [D]
