God's Country Uke tab by Blake Shelton

Strumming pattern: d-du-u-du-du-du-d-du

[Verse 1]
Cm
Right outside of this one church town
          Eb
There's a gold dirt road to a whole lot of nothin'
      F
Got a deed to the land, but it ain't my ground
        Cm
This is God's country
Cm
We pray for rain, and thank Him when it's fallen
          Eb
'Cause it brings a grain and a little bit of money
         F
We put it back in the plate
                               Cm
I guess that's why they call it God's country


 
[Chorus]
  Cm
I saw the light in the sunrise
        Eb
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
      F
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
         Cm
With the dogs runnin'
Cm
Saved by the sound of the been found
      Eb
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
    F
The devil went down to Georgia, but he didn't stick around
        Cm
This is God's country
 
 
[Verse 2]
Cm
We turned the dirt and worked until the week's done
Eb
We take a break and break bread on Sunday
         F
And then do it all again
                              Cm
'Cause we're proud to be from God's country (Yeah, yeah)
 
 
[Chorus]
  Cm
I saw the light in the sunrise
        Eb
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
       F
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
         Cm
With the dogs runnin'
Cm
Saved by the sound of the been found
      Eb
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
    F
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
        Cm
This is God's country (Yeah)
 
 
[Interlude]
 Cm Eb   F
(This is God's country)
Cm
God's country
 
 
[Bridge]
Cm
I don't care what my headstone reads
     Eb
Or what kind of pine wood box I end up in
     F
When it's my time, lay me six feet deep
   Cm
In God's country (Yeah, yeah)
 
 
[Chorus]
Cm
I saw the light in the sunrise
        Eb
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
       F
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
         Cm
With the dogs runnin'
Cm
Saved by the sound of the been found
      Eb
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
    F
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
        Cm
This is God's country (God's country)
      Cm
Yeah, I saw the light in the sunrise
        Eb
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
      F
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
         Cm
With the dogs runnin'
Cm
Saved by the sound of the been found
      Eb
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
    F
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
        Cm
This is God's country
