The Country

E                   A
 Met her halfway to Birmingham
E                    A
 Leaving middle Tennessee
E                       A
 Made a speech to say inside my head
E                        A
 Swore that I’d say everything

Cmaj7     B    A
     I’ve been giving you my life
Cmaj7    B         A
     I’m always on time
Cmaj7     B           A
     Four years are enough to decide
Cmaj7 B                A
      Whether I’m your kind

Cmaj7          B                A
     I’ve been thinkin bout the country
Cmaj7         B            A
     Thinkin bout you and me
Cmaj7          B             A
     I’ve been thinkin where I do belong
    E    B              A
And why you belong with me

E                       A
 In frustration she had bowed her head
E                   A
 And I could hardly breathe
E                  A
 Reminisced on the times we had
E                                A
 But said that she would have to leave

           Cmaj7      B            A
Yeah, it’s hard, it's hard to walk away from you
Cmaj7         B           A
     We don’t live at the same speed
Cmaj7             B             A
     You’re gonna make somebody happy
Cmaj7     B             A
     That someone, ain’t me

Cmaj7                  B                A
     Cause when you’re thinkin bout the country
Cmaj7            B                A
     You’re just trying to be with me
Cmaj7        B          A
     Seasons change the way that we are
E       B         A
 Spring changed me

E                   A
 Met her halfway to Birmingham
E                    A
 Leaving middle Tennessee
E                       A
 Made a speech to say inside my head
E                        A
 Swore that I’d say everything to keep you here.
