[D]Have you ever picked guitar on your front porch
in the [G]morning as the sun was [D]risin'?
Or followed your dog down to the river and ran [G]into an ole bap[D]tizin'?
Do you [G]think to pull off on the [D]side of the road
when that [G]big black hearse is [D]passing?
Have you [G]ever helped some[D]one in need with[G]out them even [D]asking?
We do that in the [G]country, Let me tell you 'bout [D]country..
[G]Country can be in the [D]middle of a city
[G]Country can be on a [D]farm, [G]Country aint even a [D]place on map,
[G]Its a place in your [A]heart..
Have you [D]ever hitched a ride to Music City just to [G]see an Opry [D]show?
Would you drive across the [G]country.... to listen to some [D]country?
[G]Country can be in the [D]middle of a city
[G]Country can be on a [D]farm, [G]Country aint even a [D]place on map,
[G]Its a place in your [A]heart..
Have you [D]ever been there at the courthouse square
for the pa[G]rade on the 'Fourth of Ju[D]ly'?
[D]With a tear on your face and a lump in your throat
As you [G]watch ole glory go [D]by,
[D]Or sat thru a service where they played taps
for a [G]soldier who never came [D]home?
[D]Or looked in the sad brown eyes of his momma
as she [G]touched his name on that [D]stone?
He fought for his [G]country....and died for his [D]country
I love my [G]country.. Let me tell ya 'bout [D]country
