Gods Country Chords

[Intro]
A
A  C  D  A
 
 
 
[Verse 1]
A
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
       A
This is God's country
A
We pray for rain, and thank Him when it's fallen
 C
'Cause it brings the grain and a little bit of money
   D
We put it back in the plate
                                A
I guess that's why they call it God's country
 
 
[Chorus]
A
I saw the light in a sunrise
        C
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
       D                                           A
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine with the dogs runnin'
A
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
        A
This is God's country
 
 
[Verse 2]
A
We turn the dirt and work until the week's done
C
We take a break and break bread on Sunday
     D
Then do it all again
                              A
'Cause we're proud to be from God's country (Yeah)
 
 
[Chorus]
A
I saw the light in a sunrise
        C
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
       D                                           A
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine with the dogs runnin'
A
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
        A
This is God's country
 
 
[Interlude]
             A              C
Yeah this is God's country
           D               A
Oh this is God's country
 
 
[Bridge]
A
I don't care what my headstone reads
   C
Or what kind of pinewood box I end up in
D
When it's my time, lay me six feet deep
   A
In God's country
 
 
[Chorus]
A
I saw the light in a sunrise
        C
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
       D                                           A
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine with the dogs runnin'
A
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
        A
This is God's country
 
 
[Outro]
A  C  D  A
