Country In My Blood

	  		

 



C D C G 

verse 1 
G 
I'm fifth generation  
                     Em  
on the same piece of land 
                      C  
my grandfather's grandfather  
              D                       G 
paid just ten dollars to a government man 
G 
for this little piece of heaven,  
                         Em 
that I will allways call home 
                    C 
and that won't ever change 
                         D                    G 
it run struck through my vains straight to my soul. 

Chorus 1 
G             C      C    G 
Well, you can put me in a city 
         C  C    G 
and I'll do just fine 
    C          G            D             Em 
but give me my sattle and a good horse to ride, 
             C    C     G 
'cause at the end of the day,  
         C      C   G  
when the work's all done 
        C       G            D                Em  D C      
I wanna hang my hat, knowing where I'm coming from 
                       Em D C  
I've got country in my blood 
                         G 
I've got this country in my blood.  

verse 2 
G 
A hundred years of come and gone 
                                Em  
and there's been many that were tough 
                          C  
but through hard work and tears 
                         D                  G 
we made it through those years never giving up. 
G 
And I've seen a lot of places 
               Em 
from up on the stage 
               C 
but nothing compares to 
                 D                      G 
what I got right here in this wide open space 

Chorus 2 
G             C      C    G 
Well, you can put me in a city 
         C  C    G 
and I'll do just fine 
    C          G            D          Em 
but give me my caddle and a traktor to drive 
             C    C     G 
cause at the end of the day,  
         C      C   G  
when the work's all done 
        C       G         D            Em  D C      
I wanna hang my hat on it where I come from 
                       Em D C  
I've got country in my blood 
                         G 
I got this country in my blood.
