verse 1
G Em Eb
I may look like a city slicker,
G D7 G
Shinin' up through his shoes.
G Em Eb
Underneath I'm just a cotton picker,
G D7 G
Pickin' out a mess of blues
C G
Show me where I start.
C G
Find a horse and cart.
Eb Bb
I'm just a country boy,
Eb G
Country boy at heart.
verse 2
G Em Eb
I may look like a bank teller,
G D7 G
Pushing facts in a file.
G Em Eb
But I'd rather be a hog collar,
G D7 G
Chewing cud on a sty.
C G
Show me where I start.
C G
Find a horse and cart.
Eb Bb
I'm just a country boy,
Eb G
Country boy at heart.

Underneath I'm just a cotton picker,

Pickin' out a mess of blues.

Show me where I start.

Country boy at heart.
