Am  F                C      G
Where I come from they're good at raising
               Am                 F                    C     G
Their hands on Sunday, drinks up high and  a  bunch of babies
           Am  F              C      G
Everybody knows, everybody's business
              Am            F                    C      G
Like who got drunk, who got fired and who's been kissing


[Pre-Chorus]
     Am                F
Eighteen years old, I hit the road
         C              G
Didn't plan on lookin' back
     Am                   F
But you don't leave with roots that deep
    C                  G
No matter where you're at


[Chorus]
     Am      F         C      G
It's in my blood, it's in my veins
     Am    F             C      G
The way I talk, and the way I pray
       Am                 F
If I close my eyes, I'm there right now
 C                G               Am     F
You can take the girl out of the country
                  C    G             Am    F    C
But the country stays running in my veeeeeeiiiiins
 G              Am    F    C     G
Running in my veeeeeiiiiiins


[Verse 2]
               Am  F                C    G
For a little while, I can tone it down
               Am                   F              C    G
But a couple drinks or a call from mama brings it out
       Am           F       C            G
I'm a sucker for a romance ooh I love a Southern man
    Am               F
To hold my door and hold my hand
   C                 G
Before he gets that kiss


[Chorus]
     Am      F         C      G
It's in my blood, it's in my veins
     Am    F             C      G
The way I talk, and the way I pray
       Am                 F
If I close my eyes, I'm there right now
 C                G               Am     F
You can take the girl out of the country
                  C    G             Am    F    C
But the country stays running in my veeeeeeiiiiins
 G              Am    F    C    G
Running in my veeeeeiiiiiins


[Bridge]
              Am      F         C     G
You might see me in NYC or California
                Am               F                C      G
But you best believe my heart is always still in Georgia


[Chorus]
     Am      F         C      G
It's in my blood, it's in my veins
     Am    F             C      G
The way I talk, and the way I pray
       Am                 F
If I close my eyes, I'm there right now
 C                G               Am     F
You can take the girl out of the country
                  C    G             Am    F    C
But the country stays running in my veeeeeeiiiiins
 G              Am    F    C
Running in my veeeeeiiiiiins
      G             Am     F    C
It's running in my veins
      G              Am    F    C
It's running in my veins
      G             Am    F    C
It's running in my veins
      G             Am    F    C
It's running in my veins
      G              Am
It's running in my veins
