[Verse 1]
             G                      C         D                     (riff)
She's been playing that room on the strip for ten years in Vegas
         G                     C        D                     (riff)
Every night she looks in the mirror but she only ages
             G                                 C                 D
She's been reading 'bout Nashville and all the records that everybody's
          (riff)
buying
              G                  C        D                 (riff)
Say's I'm a simple girl myself grew up on Long Island
        Em               D
So she packs her bags to try her hand
      Em           D
Says this might be my last chance

[Chorus]
             G      C              D
She's gone country, look at them boots
             G      C              D
She's gone country, back to her roots
             G        C            D
She's gone country, a new kind of suit
             Em        NC
She's gone country, here she comes

[Verse 2]
(Riff x 2)
           G                    C            D                     (riff)
Well the folk scene's dead, but he's holding out in the village
           G                       C           D                    (riff)
He's been writing songs, speaking out against wealth and privilege
        G                               C         D                      (riff)
He says I don't believe in money, but a man could make him a killin'
       G                         C          D                       (riff)
Cause some of that stuff don't sound much different than Dylan
     Em                 D
I hear down there its changed you see
        Em                  D
They're not as backwards as they used to be

[Chorus]
             G      C              D
He's gone country, look at them boots
             G      C              D
He's gone country, back to his roots
             G        C            D
He's gone country, a new kind of suit
            Em          NC
He's gone country, here he comes

[Verse 3]
(Riff x 4)
    G                    C            D                     (riff)
He commutes to L.A., but he's got a house in the valley
         G                           C        D                            (riff)
But the bills are piling up and the pop scene just ain't on a rally
              G                   C                   D
And he says honey I'm a serious composer schooled in voice and
                        (Riff)
composition
               G                      C                   D
But with the crime and the smog these days this ain't no place for
                (Riff)
children
           Em                           D
Lord it sounds so easy, this shouldn't take long
      Em                            D
Be back in the money in no time at all

[Chorus]
             G      C              D
He's gone country, look at them boots
             G      C              D
He's gone country, back to his roots
             G        C            D
He's gone country, a new kind of suit
            Em          NC
He's gone country, here he comes

[Outro]
(Riff x 2)
               G          C          D
Yeah he's gone country, a new kind of walk
             G        C           D
He's gone country, a new kind of talk
             G      C             D
He's gone country, look at them boots   
             G        C           D
He's gone country, aw back to his roots

             G           C          D
He's gone country
             G           C          D
He's gone country                   everybody's
         G           C              D
Gone country                       yeah we've gone
G           C           D
Country             the whole world's
G                       C                       D
Gone country
G                       C                       D

G                       C                       D
We gone
G                       C                       D
and fade...
