THE CITY PUT THE COUNTRY BACK IN ME - NEAL MCCOY
(4/4 Steady Country Blues Swing beat)
[VERSE 1]
E
I was born dirt poor on a dead end country road.
B
My every dream was to just grow up and go.
E A
Like a siren song those bright lights call my name.
E B E
So, I turned that country road into memory lane.
[VERSE 2]
E
Well I hit that fast lane, it was paved with gold.
B
But it wasn’t long till my highbrow ways got old.
E A
I started missin’ things that I thought I left behind.
E B E
Till I found two swingin doors beneath a neon sign.
[CHORUS]
A
They were wirlin and a twirlin
E
to the fiddle's and the steel guitars.
E B
Them city folk was drinkin from mason jars.
E A
I think I found what paradise might be.
E B E
The city put the country back in me.

[VERSE 3]
E
When you leave this farm,
you don't have to clean your wounds.
Just go on home
B
and slip off them cowboy boots.
E
Now it's the best of both worlds
A
all I'll ever need.
E B E
The city put the country back in me.
[CHORUS]
A
They were wirlin and a twirlin
E
to the fiddle's and the steel guitars.
E B
Them city folk was drinkin from mason jars.
E A
I think I found what paradise might be.
E B E
The city put the country back in me.
E B E
Yeah the city put the country back in me.
