Verse 1:
         G                                C
There's a warm wind blowing over, from the west again today
    F                                  G
and with it comes that message sent, from so far away.
   G                                  C
It drags that longing feeling from my heart down to my sleeve,
F                                           G
Tells me that it's been too long, and it's been time to leave.
C             G   C        G
Heeey-heeyyyy,   heeey-heeyyyyy

Verse 2:
              G                                             C
So I bought a pick up truck with three shades of orange and two shades of rusted blue,
F                                                   G
went down to my boss to get my paycheck and then he told me what I could do.
  G                                               C
I rode down to my momma's place and said "momma my time has come to ride,"
          F                                           G
She said "boy don't you let the screen door slam your ass on the way outside."

Chorus:
            C                         G
You see I'm goin to the country for a while,
    C                                 G
I'm going where they speak in turns a country mile
    C                               Eb                                 G
I'm going to the country, was there something I should know, before I go?

Verse 3:
       G                                 C
Well a sweet hitchhiker stops me on this old and county road,
    F                                                       G
She hopped into my pickup with her cutoff jeans, and she so kindly said "hello"
    G                                     C
Her blue eyes smiled as she said her destination was unknown,
             F                                                  G
she said she left the city standing only days ago, and then she turned up my radio.

Chorus:
            C                         G
You see I'm goin to the country for a while,
    C                                 G
I'm going where they speak in turns a country mile
    C                               Eb                                 G
I'm going to the country, was there something I should know, before I go?

Bridge:
Em                Am
Life was ordinary boring lame,
C                  Eb                             G
all my dreams were captive on that rat-race of a cage.
Em                  Am
Sweet the sound surrendered to my ears,
C                  Eb                     G
oh, the winds of change, have blown them, away
   G      F7 F#7 G7

Outro:
    C                         G
I'm goin to the country for a while,
    C                               G
I'm going where all the people, the people even smile!
   C                             Eb                                C6sus4/F
I'm going to the country, was there something I should know, something I should know,
