(C) Hey momma //// (x20010) ////  (Am7) ////  here''s a (C) letter from
your (F) son //// //// (Dm)
Well I (F) think, my city days are (C) done Ma
And it (Bb) ain''t, been three (F) weeks, since I (C) came

(C) Hey momma ////  (x20010) //// (Am7) ////  I do re-(C)-member what you
(F) said //// //// (Dm)
Say your (F) prayers, before you go to (C) bed son
And re-(Bb)-member city (F) women ain''t the (C) same

I''m like a (Bb) John Deere tractor in a (F) half acre field
(A) Trying to plow a furrow where the (D) soil is made of steel
Oh I (G) wish I was (C) home Ma, where the (G) bluegrass is (C) growin''
And the (G) sweet country (D) girls don''t com-(G)-plain //// (F) ////

(C) ////   (x20010) ////   (Am7) ////   (G) ////
(C) ////   (x20010) ////   (Am7) ////   (G) ////  (C) //// ////

(C) Momma ////  (x20010) //// (Am7) ////  so much per-(C)-fume I
thought I''d (F) drown //// ////  (Dm)
And the (F) Lord, didn''t seem to be no-(C)-where around
Hey I (Bb) fell like a (F) flower from the (C) vine

Ah she was (Bb) pretty lord knows
(F) I thought that she would bring me (C) joy
She (Bb) laughed, she (F) called, me country (C) boy ma
And (Bb) after (F) she had been so (C) kind

I''m like a (Bb) John Deere tractor in a (F) half acre field
(A) Trying to plow a furrow where the (D) soil is made of steel
Oh I (G) wish I was (C) home Ma, where the (G) bluegrass is (C) growin''
And the (G) fire light (D) shimmers and (G) shines //// (F) ////

(C) ////   (x20010) ////   (Am7) ////   (G) ////
(C) ////   (x20010) ////   (Am7) ////   (G) ////  (C) /

This song needs to be modified. Not bashing. Larry plays it in standard tuning in the key of D with no Capo. You can also use drop d tuning like Dan Tyminski if you like, it sounds great as well. Been playing it since I was 11. I'm 35 now. Fav all time song! The intro is basically picked from d, db, b, as a walk down with an alternating pattern. It's not difficult, if you are tuned correctly. Give it a try. Good luck! Thanks for putting the lyrics up!
