Dry County

D                      Em
Jesus turned the water into wine
      G                        A
So it seems to me it shouldn't be a 
crime
              D                    
But there's a way of thinkin' 
  Bm
'round here
         G         A
That as- tounds me

        D                   Em
You can work all day in the summer 
sweat
       G                           
And go down to the store to get 
  A
your whistle wet
      Bm                           
But a Dr. Pepper's all you're gonna
     A
 get
Em            A   D
Sorry, it's a dry county

[Chorus]
                D    C#m Bm  A 
But if I take a ride up 35, 
Em              A
just across the county line
          D    C#m        Bm
There's a neon sign and a cute 
          A        Em      A
little waitress smilin' at me
     D    C#m Bm          A
If I stay and hang around here
     Em                     A
Keep beggin' my buddies for bootleg 
beer
   Bm                      A       
My dreams might whither up and die 
Em
around me
       A   D      Em G A
It's a dry county

[Verse]
         D                     Em
It ain't rained around here in so 
damn long
        G                       
You can see it when an old timer 
 A
tells a joke
          D                        
You don't smile you just keep 
  Bm
playn' dominoes
    Em                A
And drink your coffee

       D                         
Thirty miles to the east takes a lot
Em
 more green
         G                     
And they got more green for the 
 A
football team
           D                     
And 'round here, we ain't seen a 
Bm                       Em
winnin' streak since the 80's
       A   D
It's a dry county

[Chorus]
                D    C#m Bm  A 
But if I take a ride up 35, 
Em              A

          D    C#m        Bm
There's a neon sign and a cute

It's a dry county

[Bridge]
     Em                      
Last time I took Becky to the 
 A
drive-in
           F#                  
I couldn't even talk her into a 
 Bm
little kiss
             Em                   
You couldn't loosen her up with a 
F#               A
whole can of WD- 40

[Chorus]
                D    C#m Bm  A 
But if I take a ride up 35, 
Em              A
just across the county line
          D    C#m        Bm
There's a neon sign and a cute 
          A        Em      A
little waitress smilin' at me
      D    C#m Bm          A
I can stay and hang around here
Em             A
Waste away the best of my years
   Bm             A               
So good bye yall, promise I'll 
        Em            F#
call, I've had about all
A           D      Em
Of this dry county
