Intro: Bm A D  D A D  G D A  D  D

Verse:
       G   D        A
Oh my Daddy’s from Memphis
A           G       D    A
He used to hunt in Arkansas
 A           G        D       A
And then he moved to New York City
                Bm      G  D  A
That’s where he met my Mom


A             G       D      A    A
He wrote his Mom  and Dad a letter
 A          G          D          A
“I’ll be a millionaire by twenty-five”
A              G          D          A
I don’t know which one of us dreams bigger
            Bm    A    G   D  A
I have his heart and drive

Pre-chorus:
 A     Bm              D
And he always told me and my sisters
               G        D      A
When we were scared to bait a hook
 A               Bm            D
Girls you don’t want to be no city slickers

Chorus:
A         Bm  A   D
So I’m a country girl
             D             A
I love the trees and the flowers
       D           A
Those well-spent hours
        G           A
Staring up at the stars

          Bm  A   D
Oh I’m a country girl
          D           A
Though I live in the city
           D             A
And those lights are so pretty
         Bm A D  D  A  D
But I’d happily rather be
        G             A                D   D
Sitting on the porch picking on my guitar

Instrumental:
Bm A D         D A D             G   D   A  D
      Mmm mm mm     Mmm mm mm   Mmm mmm mmm

Verse:
        G      D     A
Oh my Grandma was a lady
            G           D         A
She always wore dress suits and pearls
               G          D   A
Our favorite treat was a ladyfingers
                G    D  A
And I have her curls

        G      D        A
And my Mama’s from Australia
             G       D     A
And she grew up without a Dad
            G        D
And so she raised a hope
      A                Bm    G  D  A
That gave us what she never had

Pre-chorus:
            Bm            A        D
And on the farm where I spent my childhood
        G           D      A
Riding horses and writing songs
         Bm          A
Oh, I’m still that child
             D         G  D  A
And that’s still where I belong

Chorus:
              Bm  A   D
‘Cause I’m a country girl
             D             A
I love the trees and the flowers
       D           A
Those well-spent hours
        G           A
Staring up at the stars

          Bm  A   D
Oh I’m a country girl
          D           A
Though I live in the city
           D                A
And those lights sure are pretty
         Bm A D  D  A  D
But I’d happily rather be
        G             A                D   D   D
Sitting on the porch picking on my guitar

Outro:
         Bm A  D    D  A D
I would rather be, happily
        G       D     A                D   D
Sitting on the porch picking on my guitar
