I’m A Country Boy Chords

[Intro]
 
A
 
[Verse 1]
 
A
New York City is a thousand miles away
A
And if you ask me, I'll tell you that's OK
A
Now I'm not trying to put the big apple down
A
'Cause they don't need a man like me in town
D
Well, I pick cotton down on the Dixie line
D
Work hard all day tryin' to make a dime
A
But that's alright, that's OK by me
A
'Cause that's the way that it was meant to be
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                    D
Big city, hard times don't bother me
A
I'm a country boy, I'm as happy as I can be
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
A
I don't like smoke chokin' up my air
A
And some of those city folks 

well they don't care
A
I don't like cars buzzing around
A
I don't even want a piece of concrete in my town
D
I like sunshine, fresh clean air
D
Makes me feel like you wouldn't care but
A
That's all right, each to his own
A
But one smell from the city
A
And this country boy is gone, I said
 
[Chorus]
G                    D
Big city, hard times never bothered me heeeee
A
I'm a country boy, I'm as happy as I can be
A
Well, I don't want to even read about it
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
A       D
A
G       D
A
 
[Verse 3]
A
Let me tell you something, let me tell you true
A
What's right for me might not be right for you
A
Well, you live your way, I'll live mine
A
And I hope you're happy all the time but
D
I pick cotton down on the Dixie line
D
I work all day tryin' to make a dime
A
But that's all right, that's OK by me
A
'Cause that's the way that it was supposed to be
 
[Chorus]
 
G                    D
Big city, hard times never bother me heeeee
A
I'm a country boy, I'm as happy as I can be
A
Let me tell ya, ... I said
G                   D
Big city, hard times never bother me heeeee
A
I'm a country boy, I'm as happy as I can be
A
Ooh, that's my way, baby
A
I don't want you to even tell me about the big city
A
I don't want to read about it...
