(D minor) (C major) (A minor) (B flat major)
Verse 2
I (D minor) came here like (C major) so many did
to (A minor) find a better (B flat major) life
To (D minor) find my piece (C major) of easy street
To (G major) finally be a (D minor) live
I knew (D minor) nothing good comes (C major) easy
All (A minor) good things take (B flat major) some time
I (D minor) made my bed (C major) I'll lie in it
To (G major) die in it's the crime
Pre-chorus 1
(F major) You can't help but prosper
Where the (B flat major) streets are paved with gold
They say the (C major) oil wells ran deeper here
than (D minor) anybody's known
Now I (F major) packed up all my wife and kid
And (B flat major) left the folks back home
See there's (C major) nothing in this pay dirt
The (B flat major) ghosts are all I know
Now the (D minor) oil's gone
And the (C major) money's gone
All the (Bdim) jobs are gone
Still we're (C major) hangin' on
Chorus 1
Down in (F major) dry county
They're (C major) swimming in the sand
Praying (B flat major) for some holy water
To (G minor) wash the sins from (B flat major) off our hands
Here in (F major) dry county
The (C major) promise has run dry
Where (B flat major) nobody cries

Verse 3
"In the (D minor) blessed name of (C major) Jesus"
I (A minor) heard a preacher (B flat major) say
That (D minor) we were all God's (C major) children
That (G major) He'd be back, (D minor) back someday
I (D minor) hoped that he knew (C major) something as
he (A minor) drank that cup of (B flat major) wine
I didn't (D minor) have too good a (C major) feeling
as I (G major) head out to the night
Pre-chorus 2
I (F major) cursed the sky to open
I (B flat major) begged the clouds for rain
I (C major) prayed all night for water
For this (D minor) burning in my veins
It was (F major) like my soul's on fire
And I (B flat major) had to watch the flames
All my (C major) dreams went up in ashes
And my (B flat major) future blew away
Chorus 2
Down in (F major) dry county
They're (C major) swimming in the sand
Praying for (B flat major) some holy water

Here in (F major) dry county
The (C major) promise has run dry
Where (B flat major) nobody cries

Verse 4
A man (D minor) spends his whole life (C major) waiting
Prayin' (A minor) for some big re (B flat major) ward
But it (D minor) seems sometimes (C major) that payoff
Leaves you (G major) feeling like a dirty (D minor) whore
(D minor) If I could choose (C major) the way I'd die
Make it (A minor) by the gun or (B flat major) knife
'Cause the (D minor) other way (C major) there's too much pain
(G major) Night after night after night after night
Chorus 3
Oh, down in (F major) dry county
Where they (C major) swim out in the sand
Praying for (B flat major) some holy water

In (F major) dry county
The (C major) promise has run dry
Where (B flat major) nobody cries
And (C major) no one's getting out of here
