Gone Country

	  		Tom: G 
 

           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 
           G                                   C            D           (riff) 
She's been reading 'bout Nashville and all the records that everybody's buying 
           G                  C    D          (riff) 
Says 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 

           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/C 
She's gone country, here she comes 

2x riff 
         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 
  Em                   D 
I hear down there it's changed you see 
  Em                             D 
They're not as backwards as they used to be 

          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/C 
He's gone country, here he comes 

**Play Chorus 1x 

      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 piling up and the pop scene just ain't on a rally 
        G                           C            D              (riff) 
He says honey I'm a serious composer schooled in voice and composition 
             G                        C         D				   (riff) 
But with the crime and the smog these days 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 

          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/C 
He's gone country, here he comes 

2x riff 
               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, oh back to his roots 

          G          C     D 
He's gone country 
          G          C 
He's gone country 
     D           G         C 
Everybody's gone country 
D               G          C 
Yeah we've gone country 
          D            G        C D   G C D 
The whole world's gone country
