God's Country

Capotraste na 1ª casa

Bm
Right outside of this one church town
D9
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
D9
'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

Bm
I saw the light in the sunrise
D9
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
D9
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

Bm
We turned the dirt and worked until the week's done
D9
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)

Bm
I saw the light in the sunrise
D9
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
D9
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)

Bm
I don't care what my headstone reads
D9
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)
