[G]
Patty, don't look now, but I think that's Buffy St.
Marie, the singer.
She's [F] probably in the [Bm] city [C] doing a recording at [B] a [G] studio or something.
Oh, I must talk to her.
Why, sometimes I just get so blown out here in the [Bm] city.
There's Cody pulling on me, there's traffic out the window, there's noise all over the place.
Sometimes I don't want to do a sit here and play a song, play my guitar and think about the country.
[G]
You don't like the city?
Now [B] I'm seeing things.
You're a cow.
And that's a pig?
Her name's Patty?
You are a pig.
Don't like the city?
Well, no, I do like the city, but I just get tired of the city.
But maybe you wouldn't understand.
You would [G] understand what I mean.
[B] You're from the country too, I bet, originally.
I'm just going to sing a song here with my guitar about the country,
about I'm going to be a country girl again, but you wouldn't know it.
Know it?
I've lived it.
Would you like to join in with me?
Oh, yes, indeed.
Oh, please.
You too?
You know it too?
Oh, well, [C#] she doesn't know it, but she'll oink along.
[G]
Rain is falling lightly on the buildings and the cars.
I said goodbye to city friends, department stores and bars.
[C] The lights are torn out at my back, my heart is full of [G] stars.
And I'm [D] going to be a country girl [G] again.
Oh, [D] yes.
Oh, yes, [G] I'm going to [C] be a country girl [G] again, you do know it.
With an old brown dog and a big front porch and rabbits in the [D] pen.
I'd tell you [G]
all the lights on Broadway don't [C] amount to an acre of green.
And [Gm] I'm going to be [D] a country girl again.
[G] Oh, how true.
Now listen closely, Patty.
I'll try.
I spent some time in study, oh, I've taken my degrees.
And memorized my formulas, my A's and B's and C's.
How true.
[C] But what I know came long ago, and not from such [G] as these.
And [D] I'm going to be a country girl again.
Now [G] sing along, Patty, please.
[D] Oh, yes, I'm [G] going to be [C] a country girl [G] again.
Good.
With an old brown dog and a big front porch and rabbits in the [D] pen.
I'd tell [G] you all the lights on Broadway don't [C] amount to an acre of green.
So [G] I'm going to be a [D] country girl [G] again.
You will indeed.
I wandered in the hearts of friends, looking for to find somebody who'd show me happiness.
Where I'd find peace, find.
And [C] the one who taught [F] my lesson [C]
was a south wind through the [G] pines.
So I'm [D] going to be a country girl [G]
again.
[D] Oh, yes, [G] I'm going to be [C] a country girl [G] again.
With an old brown dog and a big front porch and rabbits in the pen.
[D] I'd [G] tell you all the lights on Broadway don't [C] amount to an acre of green.
So [G] I'm going to be [D] a country girl [G] again.
One more [D] time.
Oh, yes, I'm [G] going to be [C] a country girl [G] again.
With an old brown dog and a big front porch and rabbits in the [D] pen.
I'd tell you [G] all the lights on Broadway don't [C] amount to an acre of green.
So [G] I'm going to be a [D] country girl [G] again.
You've done all right.
I feel a lot better now.
