Capo 1st
 
[Intro]
D Em7 G D
 
[Verse]
D                                 A
Have you ever picked guitar on your front porch
       G                      D
In the morning as the sun was risin'
                          A
Or followed your dog down to the river 
        G               D
And ran into an ole’ baptizin'
       G                        D
Do you think to pull off on the side of the road
          G                   D
When that big black hearse is passin’
         G               D
Have you ever helped someone in need 
    G             D
Without them even askin’
                  Em7      G                     D
We do that in the country, let me tell you 'bout country
 
[Chorus]
G                     D
Country can be in the middle of the city
G                   D
Country can be on a farm, 
G                    D
Country ain’t even a place on the map,
Em7                  A
It’s a place in your heart 
 
[Verse]
          D                    A
Would you ever hitch a ride to Music City 
        G           D
Just to see an Opry show
                           Em7
Would you drive across the country 
G                      D       A G D
Just to listen to some country
 
[Bridge]
Em7 G D
 
[Chorus]
G                     D
Country can be in the middle of the city
G                   D
Country can be in a barn, 
G                    D
Country ain’t even a place on the map,
Em7                  A
It’s a place in your heart 
 
[Verse]
         D                      A
Have you ever been there at the courthouse square
          G                       D
For the parade on the Fourth of July
D                              A
With a tear on your face and a lump in your throat 
       G                  D
As you watch old glory go by,
G                                   D
Or sat through a service where they played taps
      G                      D
For a soldier who never came home
   G                       D
Or looked in the sad brown eyes of his momma
       G                        D
As she touched his name on that stone
 
[Outro]
                  Em7    G                 D
He fought for his country and died for his country
               Em7    G
Yea, I love my country 
                             D
Let me tell ya 'bout country
