[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
