Gods Country Chords

The original song is in the key of Cm/G. An easy way to play this three chord song is to capo the 3rd fret and play the Am chord shape (Cm/G), the C chord shape (G), then slide the C shape up two frets (F) or play the D chord shape (F). The other advantage to this version is that because the Chorus is so high to sing, you can easily capo down a half-step (capo 2), a full step (capo 1), or three half-steps (open) so that it is easier to sing the chorus. This gives you options. :).

Am C D Am
[Verse]
Am
Right outside of this one church town
C
There's a gold, dirt road to a whole lot of nothin'
D
Got a deed to the land but it ain't my ground
Am
This is God's country
Am
We pray for rain, thank him when it's fallin'
C
'Cause it brings a grain and a little bit of money
D
We put it back in the plate I guess that's why
Am
They call it God's country
[Chorus]
Am
I saw the light in the sunrise
C
Sittin' back in the 40 on a muddy riverside
D
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine
Am
With the dogs running
Am
Saved by the sound of the been found
C
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
D
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
Am
This is God's country
[Verse]
Am
We turned the dirt and worked until the week's done
C
We take a break and break bread on Sunday
D
And then do it all again 'cause we're proud to be
Am
From God's country (Yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
Am
I saw the light in the sunrise
C
Sittin' back in the 40 on a muddy riverside
D
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine
Am
With the dogs running
Am
Saved by the sound of the been found

Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound

The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around

This is God's country (yeah)

I don't care what my headstone reads

And what kind of pine wood box I end up in

When it's my time, lay me six feet deep
Am
In God's country (Yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
Am
I saw the light in the sunrise
C
Sittin' back in the 40 on a muddy riverside

Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine

Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound

The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
Am
This is God's country (God's country)

I saw the light in the sunrise
