INTRO (Play Twice)

E , G , C , D


VERSE 1

          E                     G
There's a house fly swimming in my sweet tea
    C                         D
Hey darling pass another Kerr jar to me
       E                          G
Butter Dripping of a biscuit baby better take a bite
C                          D
Cantaloupe thumps like its finally ripe
    E                   G
Box fan on a lawn chair sucking in swamp air
C                       D
Two hundred mile marker signs from nowhere
E           G       C     D
That's what country is


CHORUS

           G              D9
It ain't a rebel flag you bought at the mall
       E                  C9
It's a hid-away bed in an old horse stall
    G                    D9                      A9 , E , C9 , D9
Two kids getting caught, stealing a boons farm kiss
           G                           D9
It ain't a John Deere cap that's never fell in the cotton
       E                          D9
It's a Jimmy Rogers song that was long forgotten
     A9                           D9 C9
It's homemade peach ice cream on sun burnt lips
D9
That's what country is


VERSE 2
         E                            G
When the sun starts slipping from The Delta sky
        C                    D
and the last scarecrow tucks in for the night
       E                         G
Make a fire throw a blanket on a sandy bank
         C                            D
Bout' an hour till' we feel the first catfish yank
E                        G
Barefoot and a cane pole waving at the river boat
C                            D
and when they're gone take a dip in the moon glow
E          G       C     D
Thats what country is


REPEAT CHORUS

REPEAT INTRO FOR BRIDGE


CHORUS 2

           G                            D9
It ain't a jacked up truck that's never seen a pasture
     E                       D9
It's cars pulling over for a no-cab tractor
     A9                           D9 C9
It's homemade peach ice cream on sun burnt lips
      A9                D9                 C9
No it cant be bought, it's something you're born with
D9
That's what country is
