Where The Green Grass Grows - Tim McGraw
Album: Everywhere
Writers: Jess Leary/Craig Wiseman 


Intro (after fiddle solo):         
                                  


                                        
Six lanes, tail lights, red ants marching into the night
                                      
They disappear to the left and right again
                                           
Another supper from a sack, a ninety-nine cent heart attack
                              
I got a pounding head and and aching back
                                   
And the camel's buried in a big straw stack



Chorus:
                             
But I'm gonna live where the green grass grows
                 
Watch my corn pop up in rows
                                    
Every night be tucked in close to you
                        
Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed
                         
Point our rocking chairs towards the west
                                            
Plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows
                     
Where the green grass grows


(repeat intro chords)


                                        
Well I'm from, a map dot, a stop sign on a blacktop
                                          
I caught the first bus I could hop from there
                          
But all of this glitter is getting dark
                              
There's concrete growing in the city park
                   
I don't know who my neighbors are
                                          
And there's bars on the doors and bars on my heart
