Riding In The Country

INTRO: F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C

                    F                    C
Going riding in the country in a Model A Ford
                      G                               C
Past the cows and the chickens, through the fields of corn
               F                          C
Out across the flat lands and the rolling hills
                    G                       C
Feel the summer sun shining, hear the motor purr


CHORUS:
             F                         G                   C
And I'm just sitting on the front seat with two friends of mine
D7           G            G7            C     G  C
Going to the country sure makes me feel fine


               F                    C
Working in the country, cleaning up yards
               G                          C
With a Model A truck you know it can't be hard
                F                         C
Folks smile and pass us, walking down the road
             G                        C
Going to the county dump with another load


CHORUS:
             F                         G                   C
And I'm just sitting on the front seat with two friends of mine
D7           G            G7            C
Going to the country sure makes me feel fine


INSTRUMENTAL: F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C


            F                   C
Down gentle roads with no white line
       G                  C
Like a pathway to another time
           F                       C
Old houses passing, front yards of flowers
                    G                     C
I could ride in the country for hours and hours


CHORUS:
         F                         G                   C
I'm just sitting on the front seat with two friends of mine
D7           G            G7            C     G  C
Going to the country sure makes me feel fine


              F                  C
Hayfields are cut, harvest has begun
                   G                       C
Riding through the orchards in the morning sun
                  F                            C
Good times in the country, can't you smell the air
           G                     C
Apples and apricots and plums to spare


CHORUS:
         F                         G                   C
I'm just sitting on the front seat with two friends of mine
D7           G            G7            C     G  C
Going to the country sure makes me feel fine
