I'll have to try that Alan Jackson one myself I think. Never paid attention that close I guess, but I would've thought it was more complicated.

I always thought there was an Em in "Country Roads"....

Country (G)roads, take me (D)home,
To the (Em)place I be(C)long.....

I suppose it depends on whose version you listen to....

:D :D :D

I haven't played country roads in five years, it was the first song, my first lesson taught me thanks eileen in hawaii!( that was my teacher)

There are about five things to write songs about: I'm leaving you. You're leaving me. I want you. You don't want me. I believe in something. Five subjects, and twelve notes. For all that, we musicians do pretty well.
