Album: Revelation
Writers: Troy Jones/Shane Decker
**Capo 2**
[Intro]
A   D(x4)
AI don't want a fDast car
Don't nAeed a four lane hDighway
There's nAot another pDlace I'd rather AbeD  
Cuz oAut here in the cDountry
ABluebirds sing for nDothing
And the sAhade comes fDree with a tAreeD  
Yeah the sAhade comes fDree with a tAreeD  
The tAree came with a mDountain
ARight beside the rDiver
Where the gAround makes one hDeck of a scAeneD  
The mAountain counts for sDomething
The vAiew is worth a fDortune
And the sAhade comes fDree with a tAree
[Chorus]
I C#mnever had a dollar that could bDuy me what I'm feelin
But I'm fAeelin bout as good as I can Ebe
I C#mneed to be reminded when I'm lDookin for a bargain
Not to Aoverlook what's right in front of Eme
I'll nAever make a kDilling
ATryin to make a lDiving
But I mAake enough to rDaise a familAyD  
I boAught a piece of hDeaven
Off cAounty road D11
Where the sAhade comes fDree with a tAreeD  
Yeah where the sAhade comes fDree with a tAree
[Interlude]
F#m7 B D A D E
[Chorus]
AI don't want a fDast car
Don't nAeed a four lane hDighway
There's nAot another pDlace I'd rather AbeD  
Down cAounty road 1D1
There's this lAittle piece of hDeaven
Where the sAhade comes fDree with a tAreeD  
Where the sAhade comes fDree with a tAreeD  
Yeah the sAhade comes fDree with a tAree
