[Verse 1]
    D             A           
I stumbled on a preacher Sunday 
    G        D                  A
morning,  All decked out and made
          G
 up on TV,
 Em7              G            
Asking for some money from God's 
    A       G                
people,  Talking all that high 
          A
theology,
     D           A             
Well I might be just an old blue 
   G                     D        
collar,  And there's things about 
       A                 G
the Lord that I don't know,
      Em7           G          
But I bet he never had a million 
    A           G                 
dollars,  Or wore a lot of stylish
            A
 fancy clothes.

'Cause Jesus was a country boy,
Walking down a dirt road with 
everything that he owned,  He never 
         D
met a stranger,
 G                                 
Born in a barn underneath the 
                           D
stars,  His Mama laid him in a 
manger,
  A                                
Swimming in the river,  Fishing for
 his dinner,  Living with the 
             G
sinners like me . . .
  D     A     G             A   
Makes,  Me, Think,              
               D
 Jesus was a country boy.

[Verse 2]
    D           A           
My Daddy never cared much for 
     G               D            
religion,  And my Mama worried a 
  A             G
lot about his soul,
      Em7                 G       
She'd hit her knees and pray for 
       A              G           
him on Sunday,  While Daddy hit 
                    A
his favorite fishing hole,
         D           A        
You see Daddy was a rebel and a 
   G               D               
rambler,  But I always knew he 
A            G
loved my Mama so,
   Em7           G            
I never doubted he'd make it to 
   A              G               
heaven,  'Cause it ain't who you 
                   A
are it's who you know.

      ' And Daddy knew '

[Chorus]
                   G
That Jesus was a country boy,
Walking down a dirt road with 
everything that he owned,  He never 
         D
met a stranger,
 G                                 
Born in a barn underneath the 
                           D
stars,  His Mama laid him in a 
manger,
  A                                
Swimming in the river, fishing for 
his dinner,  Living with the sinners
      G
 like me . . .

Makes,  Me, Think,              
                  D
    Jesus was a country boy.
