Intro: Em 
Verse 1  
Em                    D          Em 
Skinny dippin? in the Pedernales River 
Em           D                  Em 
Country girl sure could make me shiver 
Em               D                 Em 
Right now that?s just what I could use 
Em                 D        Em 
To wash away these big city blues 
 
Verse 2 (Same chord progression as Verse 1)  
Hollywood stars beneath my feet 
Everywhere I look I see concrete  
I could use a little Southern rain  
Blanco County calls my name  
Em            D        Em 
Goddamn these big city blues 
Em         D        Em 
I got them big city blues 
Em           G        G         D               Em 
Someone done went and stole my favorite pair of boots 
Em            D        Em 
Goddamn these big city blues 
Verse 3  
Em           D       A 
Daddy was a no count bull ridin? son of a bitch 
G      D    D        Em 
That?s what my momma said 
Em             D             Em 
She cursed the day they ever met 
Em        D       G                     D                Em 
She?s the cutest small-town thing that he?d seen in the world 
Em          D              Em 
?cept daddy loved big city girls
