[Intro]
D

[Verse 1]
D G D
He was raised on a tractor in overalls and boots.
G D
Been to college and then law school since leaving his roots.
G D
Came home in a Lexus. He left in a Ford.
G A D
Country ain’t country no more.

[Verse 2]
D G D
He told his daddy, “Catch up with the times."

Dad ain’t sealing deals with a handshake like before.
G A Bm
And country ain’t country no more.
G A D
No, country ain’t country no more.

[Chorus]
G D
The back forty was sold to make up for hard times
A D
And sold by the half acre lot overnight.
G D
The houses went up and the trees were cut down.
A D
There went the finest deer hunting around.
G Bm A
Lord, everyone’s locking their doors.
G A D
‘Cause country ain’t country no more.

[Verse 3]
D G D
Now his dad sits in traffic looking ‘round at the change
G D
Watching crews turn the county road into four lanes.
G D
The old Sunday drive has turned into a chore.
G A Bm
And country ain’t country no more.
G A D
Lord, country ain’t country no more.

[Chorus]
G D
The back forty was sold to make up for hard times
A D
And sold by the half acre lot overnight.
G D
The houses went up and the trees were cut down.
A D
There went the finest deer hunting around.
G Bm A
Lord, everyone’s locking their doors.
G A D
‘Cause country ain’t country no more.

[Outro]
D G D
There’s no turning back and you just can’t ignore
G A Bm
That country ain’t country no more.
G A D
No, country ain’t country no more.
