Song: Takin' the Country Back CD: Takin' the Country Back - Mercury Records - 1997 Sung By: John Anderson Written By: Curtis Wright and Marty Stuart [Intro] | D | D | C G | D | | D | D | C G | D | [Verse]
D                             C          G           D
  Goin' down to Muscle Shoals  Where the swamp water rhythm flows

D                          C           G      D
  Live the only way I know  I'm just a common man

D                         C           G          D
  Headed down to Texas way  Where the honky tonk heroes play

D                             C                   G           D
  Gonna find that lost highway  That's where I'll make a stand
[Chorus]
D                         C           G       D
  Takin' the country back   It's high time we face the facts

D
  Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks

      C          G            D
We're takin' the country back

D
  Takin' the country back

C           G         D
  We're not sure just where it's at

D
  We've got to get it back on track

      C          G
We're takin' the country back
[Solo] | D | D | D | C G | D | [Verse]
D                             C          G       D
  Bright lights and limousines  Fame and fortune I have seen

D
  Still searchin' for that dream

C              G       D
  It's callin' me back home

D
  Down to earth where the music's real

C          G             D
  Singin' 'bout what the people feel

D
  Timeless truth, now that's the deal

C           G       D
  We got to pass in on, y'all
[Chorus]
D                         C           G       D
  Takin' the country back   It's high time we face the facts

D
  Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks

      C          G
We're takin' the country back
[Solo] | D | C | G | D | D | C | G | | A | A | [Chorus]
     D                             C           G       D
Yeh, we’re takin' the country back   It's high time we face the facts

D
  Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks

      C          G            D
We're takin' the country back

D                               C           G       D
  We’re takin' the country back   It's high time we face the facts

D           G         D
  We're not sure just where it's at

          C          G           D
But we're takin' the country back
[Chorus]
