The Country Is Young chords by Jon Langford
Verse 1
D
The country is young,
A
just crawled to its feet
D
Takes a step and collapses,
G
all in a heap
Gm
Resists the temptation,
D
to slap the child down
Gm
D
Try to remember it's age
Realize the potential,
A
deflect all the rage
G
A
Not too big on the sharing
D
G
The gentle or the caring
D
The country is young,
A
D
the country is young
Lost like an orphan,
A
the day it was found
D
Dragged down to the river,
but it just wouldn't drown
G
Gm
So big and so clumsy,
never knew it was born
D
Gm
Suddenly torn in bright lights
D
and loud noise
We gotta wipe its fat arse
A
and buy it some toys
G
A
Not too big on the shedding,
D
G
the gentle or the caring
D
The country is young,
A
D
the country is young
The country is young,
A
it's got bad growing pains
D
Growing out of its clothes
G
Stretching out on the plane
Gm
One day I know
D
Before it's much older
Gm
It's gonna pick up the phone
D
And call the cops on me
A
A feat on itself, to set us all free
G
A
Not too big on the caring
D
G
The gentle are the sharing
D
But still so much fun
A
D
The country is young
D
The Country Is Young
