[Intro 1]
[G][D][C]
[G][D][C]
[G][D][C]
[G][D][C]

[Verse 1]
She's been [G]playin' in a room on the [C]strip
For [D]ten years in [G]Vegas[D][C]
Every [G]night she looks in the [C]mirror,
And [D]she only [G]ages[D][C]
She's been [G]readin'
'bout Nashville and all the [C]records,
That [D]everybody's [G]buyin'[D][C]
Says, "I'm a [G]simple girl [C]myself,
grew [D]up on Long [G]Island"[D][C]

[Pre-chorus 1]
So she [Em]packs her bags
To [D]try her hand
Says, [Em]"This might be, [D]my last chance"

[Chorus 1]
She's gone [G]country, [C]look at them [D]boots
She's gone [G]country, [C]back to her [D]roots
She's gone [G]country, a [C]new kind of [D]suit
She's gone [Em]country, here she comes

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][C]
[G][D][C]

[Verse 2]
Well the [G]folk scene's dead,
But [C]he's holdin' [D]out in the vil[G]lage[D][C]
He's [G]been writing songs,
Speakin' [C]out [D]against
wealth and [G]privilege[D][C]
He says, [G]"I don't believe in money,
but a [C]man can [D]make him a [G]killin'"[D][C]
'cause, [G]some of that stuff
don't [C]sound much [D]different than [G]Dylan
[D][C]

[Pre-chorus 2]
I [Em]hear down there,
It's [D]changed you see,
[Em]They're not as backward as they [D]used to be

[Chorus 2]
He's gone [G]country, [C]look at them [D]boots
He's gone [G]country, [C]back to his [D]roots
He's gone [G]country, a [C]new kind of [D]suit
He's gone [Em]country, here he comes

[Solo 1]
[G][C][D]
[G][C][D]
[G][C][D][Em][Em]

[Verse 3]
He com[G]mutes to L.A.,
But [C]he's got a [D]house in the val[G]ley[D][C]
But the [G]bills are pillin' up,
And the [C]pop scene just [D]ain't on the [G]rally
[D][C]
He says, [G]"Honey I'm a serious composer,
[C]schooled in voi[D]ce and composit[G]ion
[D][C]
With the [G]crime and the smog these [C]days,
This ain't [D]no place for [G]children[D][C]

[Pre-chorus 3]
Lord it [Em]sounds so easy,
It [D]shouldn't take long
Be [Em]back in the money,
In [D]no time at all

[Chorus 3]
He's gone [G]country, [C]look at them [D]boots
He's gone [G]country, [C]back to his [D]roots
He's gone [G]country, a [C]new kind of [D]suit
He's gone [Em]country, here he comes

[Outro 1]
[G][D][C][G][D]
[C]Yeeeaah, he's gone [G]country,
A [C]new kind of [D]walk
He's gone [G]country, a [C]new kinda of [D]talk
He's gone [G]country, [C]look at them [D]boots
He's gone [G]country,
Oooh, [C]back to his [D]roots
He's gone [G]country,[C][D]
He's gone [G]country,[C]
Every[D]body's gone [G]country[C]
[D]Yeah, we've gone [G]country[C]
The whole [D]world's gone [G]country
[Repeat and fade]
