[G]
Well life on the farm is kinda laid back, ain't much of no country boy that me can't have.

This little kinda life [C] never did me [G] no harm, raising me a family and working on the farm.
These are all filled [C] with an easy country charm, [D] thank God I'm a country boy.
Well I got me [G] a fine wife, I got me [D] old fiddle, when the sun's [G] coming up I get cakes on the
griddle, life ain't nothing but [C] a funny funny riddle, [Dm] thank God I'm [G] a country boy.
[C] [G] When the work's all done and the sun's setting low, I pull out the fiddle and I'm rising
up my bones, when the [Em] kids are asleep so I [C] keep the kind of [G] love, thank God I'm a country boy.
