WHERE THE GREEN GRASS GROWS Tim McGraw
Intro chords G D G D G D G D G D Em C G D C
G D Em C
Six lanes, tail lights, red ants marching into the night
G D C
They disappear to the left and right again
G D Em C
Another supper from a sack A 99 cent heart attack
G D
I've got a pounding heart and an aching back
C
And the camel's buried in a big tall stack
CHORUS:
G D
I'm gonna live where the green grass grows
G D
Watch my corn pop up in rows
G D C
Every night be tucked in close to you
G D
Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed
G D
Point our rocking chairs towards the West
G D C
Plan our dreams where the peaceful river flows
D G D Em C G D C
Where the green grass grows
G D Em C
Where I'm from a map dot A stop sign on a black top
G D C
Caught the first bus I could hop from there
G D
But all of the glitter is getting dark
Em C
The concrete pouring in the city park
G D
I don't know who my neighbors are
C
And there's bars on the windows bars on my heart
Chorus, lead, chorus
D G
Wo, where the green grass grows
