Intro.: |(G)(G/F#)|(Em)(C)
Have you (G)ever rode a dirt road (G/F#)with the windows rolled down
(Em)Smelling that honeysuckle (C)vine
(G)Riding for no reason and you're (G/F#)lookin' not seeing
A (Em)house but every few miles (C)
Have you (G)ever been rockin' on the (G/F#)porch with your daddy
(Em)Watchin the world turn (C) slow
(G) That's where (G/F#)country (C)grows
(Chorus)
It's (D)in the hearts of (D/F#)those who know what (C)life's all a-(G)bout
It's (D)laying your head on your (D/F#)pillow and (C)fallin' to sleep (G)proud
You (C)bow your head to (G)Jesus 'cause He's (C)where it all comes (G)from
And (C)you know He'll for-(G)give you for the wrong (D)you've done
Oh, it's in the (Em)earth and the church and the words that we speak (C)slow
That's where (D)country (G)grows
Inst.: ---(G/F#)|(Em)(C)
Have you (G)ever seen a young boy (G/F#)open up the door
For an (Em)old lady walkin' in (C)slow
Or a (G)shoe polish heart on a (G/F#)second hand car
Saying "(Em)Shelly loves Billy" on the (C)window
Have you (G)ever heard a mama cry (G/F#)saying goodbye
But she (Em)knows her soldiers (C)gotta go, oh
(G) That's where (Em)country (C)grows
(Chorus)
It's (D)in the hearts of (D/F#)those who know what (C)life's all a-(G)bout
It's (D)laying your head on your (D/F#)pillow and (C)fallin' to sleep (G)proud
You (C)bow your head to (G)Jesus 'cause He's (C)where it all comes (G)from
And (C)you know He'll for-(G)give you for the wrong (D)you've done
Oh, it's in the (Em)earth and the church and the words that we speak (C)slow
That's where (D)country (G)grows
Inst.: ---(G/F#)|(Em)(C)|(G)(G/F#)|2/4(Em) |4/4(D)
Oh, you (C)bow your head to (G)Jesus 'cause He's (C)where it all comes (G)from
In the (C)end He'll for-(G)give us for the wrong (D)we've done
Oh, it's in the (Em)earth and the church and the words that we speak (C)slow
That's where (D)country (G)grows (G/F#)
(Em) That's where (C)coun-(G)try grows (G/F#) (Em) (C)
Have you (G)ever heard a song that (G/F#)changed your life
