I'm Gonne Be a Country Girl Again

            E
    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
    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
    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                 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                 B7                A       E
And I'm gonna be a country girl again.
