Chords

So just a little bit before you play: to make it sound better, when playing the chord Dsus2, let go of the bottom string (E string). This will give it some room when you're playing. [Intro] Bm Dsus2 E Bm

[Verse 1]
Bm
Right outside of this one church town

          Dsus2
There's a gold dirt road to a whole lot of nothin'

      E
Got a deed to the land, but it ain't my ground

        Bm
This is God's country

Bm
We pray for rain, and thank Him when it's fallen

          Dsus2
'Cause it brings a grain and a little bit of money

         E
We put it back in the plate

                               Bm
I guess that's why they call it God's country
[Chorus]
  Bm
I saw the light in the sunrise

        Dsus2
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside

      E
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine

         Bm
With the dogs runnin'

Bm
Saved by the sound of the been found

      Dsus2
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound

    E
The devil went down to Georgia, but he didn't stick around

        Bm
This is God's country
[Verse 2]
Bm
We turned the dirt and worked until the week's done

Dsus2
We take a break and break bread on Sunday

         E
And then do it all again

                              Bm
'Cause we're proud to be from God's country (Yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
  Bm
I saw the light in the sunrise

        Dsus2
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside

       E
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine

         Bm
With the dogs runnin'

Bm
Saved by the sound of the been found

      Dsus2
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound

    E
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around

        Bm
This is God's country (Yeah)
[Interlude]
 Bm Dsus2   E
(This is God's country)

Bm
God's country
[Bridge]
Bm
I don't care what my headstone reads

     Dsus2
Or what kind of pine wood box I end up in

     E
When it's my time, lay me six feet deep

   Bm
In God's country (Yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
Bm
I saw the light in the sunrise

        Dsus2
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside

       E
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine

         Bm
With the dogs runnin'

Bm
Saved by the sound of the been found

      Dsus2
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound

    E
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around

        Bm
This is God's country (God's country)

      Bm
Yeah, I saw the light in the sunrise

        Dsus2
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside

      E
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine

         Bm
With the dogs runnin'

Bm
Saved by the sound of the been found

      Dsus2
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
