Old Country

Am                G
The waters white, the air is thin
Em                F
The mood is envy, it’s in everything
Am                  G
The ground is cold, the tree is 
young
Em                  F
The blade is heavy, but you still 
swing
F
You still swing…

[Chorus]
F                                C  
    C (hammer down on the G string)
I’m not going back to the old 
country
F                              Am
And I know that you don’t want me
   G

Am
The past is yellow
G
The heart is blue
Em
You try to break me
F                   F
But I conquer you……conquer you.

[Verse 2]
(up tempo)

Am            G
I was little, but I was great
Em                   F
You were the church, that abused my 
faith
Am              G
I never prayed, down on my knees
Em                   F
I faced my judgment, standing on my 
feet…
F
On my feet.

[Chorus]
F                               C   
   C (hammer down on the G string)
I’m not going back to the old 
country
F                       Am  G
knowing  you don’t want me
Am
The past is yellow
G
The heart is blue
Em
You try to break me
F                    F
But I conquer you……conquer you.

[Bridge]
C                          G
And as I sail around the world
                           Am
Like a king with a silver ring
                       F
I was banned from Jericho
C                  G
I was saved by a girl
                        Am
that came in like the wind
                 Fmaj7
From the Gulf of Mexico……ohhhhh 
Mexico.

[Solo]

[Otro]
Am                             G
The future passed, and so did fear
Em                       F        F
Who I am now, was never there…
