Hollies - Sweet Country Calling

INTRO: Am7 C G

   Am7
Going down to take a ride on the Rock Island Line
     G
I'm gonna meet an old friend of mine
      Am7
It's gonna be a fine ride if only I can hide
     G
From the man who guards the freighting line
     Am7          C
I've got two thousand miles to go where I want to be
G          D
Lady Luck stay with me
    Am7
I wanna be there
    D
I gotta be there

CHORUS:
G                     C
Oh, sweet country calling, calling me it's way
                            G
Come and bathe in cool clear water, wash the city dirt away
                         C
Oh, sweet country calling, I've got something to say

When I get back to you, I won't let you down
          G
This time I'm gonna stay


BRIDGE:
    Am7        G   Am7
I wanna hear, hear the bluegrass
                G  Am7
I wanna breathe in the mountain air
             G
I gotta take in all that moonshine
  Am7      C           G
But most of all I wanna see a friend of mine


INSTRUMENTAL: G  C  G  C  G


     Am7
The last time I saw her, she was waving me goodbye
G
Heading on down the line
      Am7
She said, "Come on along", I decided to stay
G
Now I know I was wrong
        Am7        C
That's why I'm playing with fate, riding this freight
G             D
Lady Luck please stay with me
    Am7
I wanna be there
    D
I gotta be there


CHORUS:
G                     C
Oh, sweet country calling, calling me it's way
                            G
Come and bathe in cool clear water, wash the city dirt away
                         C
Oh, sweet country calling, I've got something to say

When I get back to you, I won't let you down
          G
This time I'm gonna stay


CHORUS:   (## fade to end ##)
G                     C
Oh, sweet country calling, calling me it's way
                            G
Come and bathe in cool clear water, wash the city dirt away
                         C
Oh, sweet country calling, I've got something to say

When I get back to you, I won't let you down
          G
