Carrie Underwood
From: Some Hearts

No Capo

Note: The C majorC chord fingering changes a little bit in
the intro, the first part of the song and the ending C majorC chord.
You can play it as X32013 first and then play it right after
that as 332010.


Intro: C majorC FF C majorC G+G

    C majorC
Where 69 meets 40,

There's a single stop light town,
   FF
And back when I was really young,
 A minorAm           G+G
Part of that burned down,
  C majorC
On any given Friday night,

We'd drive a hundred miles,
       FF
Between the Sonic and the Grocery Store,
 A minorAm          G+G
Laughin' all the while,
     A minorAm       G+G
With as many friends as I could pack,
 FF
In my daddy's Ford,
    A minorAm  G+G   FF       C majorC
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.

   C majorC
My hotel in Manhattan,
       FF
Holds more people than our town,
     C majorC
And what I just paid for dinner,
          G+G
Would be a down payment on a house,
        A minorAm       G+G
I'd rather be tippin' cows in Tulsa,
       FF
Then hailing cabs here in New York,
    A minorAm  G+G   FF       C majorC
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.

Chorus:
        FF
I'm in a world so wide,
          C majorC
It makes me feel small sometimes,
      A minorAm       G+G
I miss the big blue skies,
     FF
The Oklahoma kind.


    C majorC
In a world of long red carpets,
       FF
The bright lights of Hollywood,
      C majorC
All the paparazzi flashin'
      G+G
Can make a girl feel pretty good,
        A minorAm     G+G
You can get anything you want here,
 FF
Except a Wal-Mart store,
    A minorAm  G+G   FF       C majorC
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.


Chorus:
        FF
I'm in a world so wide,
          C majorC
It makes me feel small sometimes,
      A minorAm       G+G
I miss the big blue skies,
     FF
The Oklahoma kind.


       G+G
Where the Wildcats beat the Ironheads,

Old Settler's day and the Okrafest,

After prom down at the bowling lanes,

Catchin' crappy fish in Eufaula lake,
  A minorAm  G+G   FF       Fsus4Fsus4
I ain't in Checotah anymore.

FF C majorC Fsus4Fsus4 FF  G+G
     Oh Yeah...

Chorus:
        FF
I'm in a world so wide,
          C majorC
It makes me feel small sometimes,
      A minorAm       G+G
I miss the big blue skies,
     FF
The Oklahoma kind,
    A minorAm  G+G   FF
But I ain't in Checotah,
   A minorAm  G+G   FF
No I ain't in Checotah,
       A minorAm     G+G  FF
Oh, there's nothing like Oklahoma.

    C majorC
Where 69 meets 40,

There's a single stoplight town
