Bm
Right outside of this one church town
          Dsus2
There's a gold dirt road to a whole lot of nothin'
      E
Got a deed to the land, but it ain't my ground
        Bm
This is God's country
Bm
We pray for rain, and thank Him when it's fallen
          Dsus2
'Cause it brings a grain and a little bit of money
         E
We put it back in the plate
                               Bm
I guess that's why they call it God's country

  Bm
I saw the light in the sunrise
        Dsus2
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
      E
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
         Bm
With the dogs runnin'
Bm
Saved by the sound of the been found
      Dsus2
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
    E
The devil went down to Georgia, but he didn't stick around
        Bm
This is God's country

Bm
We turned the dirt and worked until the week's done
Dsus2
We take a break and break bread on Sunday
         E
And then do it all again
                              Bm
'Cause we're proud to be from God's country (Yeah, yeah)

  Bm
I saw the light in the sunrise
        Dsus2
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
       E
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
         Bm

    E
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
        Bm
This is God's country (Yeah)

 Bm Dsus2   E
(This is God's country)
Bm
God's country

Bm
I don't care what my headstone reads
     Dsus2
Or what kind of pine wood box I end up in
     E
When it's my time, lay me six feet deep
   Bm
In God's country (Yeah, yeah)

Bm
I saw the light in the sunrise
        Dsus2
