Biography:
Big Country were a new wave/alternative rock band which formed in Dunfermline, Scotland in 1981. The band consisted of Stuart Adamson (vocals, guitar), Bruce Watson (guitar, vocals), Tony Butler (bass) and Mark Brzezicki (drums). Adamson was a former member of the Scottish punk band The Skids. The band was best known for using the device known as the "e-bow" to alter their guitars to sound like bagpipes. Despite having 15 Top 40 hits in the UK, the band has remained a one hit wonder in the US with their third single "In A Big Country".

John Waynes Dream by Big Country
Intro: G, G, G, F, C, G, F, C

I could head into the sunset

With my best girl by my side

And together we would ride

Hey ma, hey pa

Look at me standing tall
G F
Brother, sister

Look at them bad guys fall
G F
I'm walking and talking real slow
C G
Out where the tumbleweeds blow
G F C G
Hey ma, hey pa, let those wagons roll

I played poker with a doctor

Stand straight up and called him a cheat

Gun him right down in the street
