Intro: Em
Verse 1 
Em                    D          Em
Skinny dippin’ in the Pedernales River
Em           D                  Em
Country girl sure could make me shiver
Em               D                 Em
Right now that’s just what I could use
Em                 D        Em
To wash away these big city blues

Verse 2 (Same chord progression as Verse 1) 
Hollywood stars beneath my feet
Everywhere I look I see concrete 
I could use a little Southern rain 
Blanco County calls my name 

Chorus 
Em            D        Em
Goddamn these big city blues
Em         D        Em
I got them big city blues
Em           G        G         D               Em
Someone done went and stole my favorite pair of boots
Em            D        Em
Goddamn these big city blues
Verse 3 
Em           D       A
Daddy was a no count bull ridin’ son of a b***h
G      D    D        Em
That’s what my momma said
Em             D             Em
She cursed the day they ever met
Em        D       G                     D                Em
She’s the cutest small-town thing that he’d seen in the world
Em          D              Em
‘cept daddy loved big city girls
Chorus 
Repeat Verse 1

Looks pretty good
I think in the third verse it goes

pre>
Em D A
Daddy was a no account bullriding sonofab***h
G D A
that's what my mama said
Em D Em
curse the day the ever met
Em G D
She's the cutest smalltown girl that he's
A Em
seen in the world but.../pre>
and I think the A is in that same progression throughout.
