[Verse 1]
G C D G D C
She's been playing that room on the strip for ten years in Vegas
G C D G D C
Every night she looks in the mirror but she only ages
G C D
She's been reading 'bout Nashville and all the records that everybody's
G D C
buying
G C D G D C
Say's I'm a simple girl myself grew up on Long Island
Em D
So she packs her bags to try her hand
Em D
Says this might be my last chance
[Chorus]
G C D
She's gone country, look at them boots
G C D
She's gone country, back to her roots
G C D
She's gone country, a new kind of suit
Em
N.C.
She's gone country, here she comes

[Verse 2]
G C D G D C
Well the folk scene's dead, but he's holding out in the village
G C D G D C
He's been writing songs, speaking out against wealth and privilege
G C D G D C
He says I don't believe in money, but a man could make him a killin'
G C D G D C
Cause some of that stuff don't sound much different than Dylan
Em D
I hear down there its changed you see
Em D
They're not as backwards as they used to be
[Chorus]
G C D
He's gone country, look at them boots
G C D
He's gone country, back to his roots
G C D
He's gone country, a new kind of suit
Em
N.C.
He's gone country, here he comes

[Verse 3]
G C D G D C
He commutes to L.A., but he's got a house in the valley
G C D G D C
But the bills are piling up and the pop scene just ain't on a rally
G C D
And he says honey I'm a serious composer,
C D G D C
schooled in voice and composition
G C
But with the crime and the smog these days
D G D C
this ain't no place for children
Em D
Lord it sounds so easy, this shouldn't take long
Em D
Be back in the money in no time at all
[Chorus]
G C D
He's gone country, look at them boots
G C D
He's gone country, back to his roots
G C D
He's gone country, a new kind of suit
Em
N.C.
He's gone country, here he comes

He's gone country, a new kind of talk
G C D
He's gone country, look at them boots
G C D
He's gone country, aw back to his roots
G C D
He's gone country
G C D
He's gone country everybody's
G C D
Gone country yeah we've gone
G C D
Country the whole world's
G C D
Gone country
