Down In The Boondocks Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Down in the boondocks,
[C]down in the boondocks
[D]People put me down to dance
[C]inside the town I was bor[G]n in
I love her and she loves me,
but [C]I don't fit the society
[D]Lord have mercy on the [C]boy
from down in the [G]boondocks
Every night I watch the light
from the [C]house up on the [G]hill
I love a little girl that lives [C]up there
and [Bm]I guess I always wil[Em]l
But [C]I don't care,
not [D]I don't know,
cause her [C]daddy is far away
[D]So I'l[C]l just have to be [D]content
To [C]see her whenever I [D]can
[G]Down in Lamuna, [C]down in Lamuna
[D]People put me down
just [C]as the sun is down
I was [G]born in
I love her and she loves me
But [C]I don't fit in the society
[D]Lord have mercy on the [C]boy
from down in the [G]womb,
[Eb]God[C][Eb]
[C][Eb]
Don't you [Ab]look at now,
don't you look at me now
One fine day I'll find a way
to [Db]move from this old [Ab]shack
I'll hold my head up [Db]like a king
and I nev[Cm]er, never will look b[Fm]ack
[Db]Until that morning I'll [Eb]walk it straight
and [Db]I'll play the three [Eb]styles
But to[Db]night you'll have to [Eb]steal away
to [Db]see me one more t[Eb]ime
[Ab]Down in the boondocks,
[Db]down in the boondocks
The [Eb]evil moving down
was [Db]less than the town I was [Ab]born in
I love her and she loves me,
but [Db]I don't fit the society
[Eb]Lord have mercy on the [Db]boy
from down in the [Ab]moonlight
Lord [Eb]have mercy on the [Db]boy
from down in the [Ab]moonlight
[Eb]Lord have mercy on the [Db]boy
from down in the [Ab]moonlight
