[Verse]
D
No, I know it ain’t Sunday
Am
And this bench seat ain’t no pew
C
And I know I’ve left you hangin’
G
Like that cross around my rearview

D
But these backroads kick up questions
Am
Like these Bridgestones kick up dirt
C
So I had to pull on over
G
And turn this truck into a church

[Chorus]
D
Could you hold back the city from the family farm
Am
Put some bass in the pond as long as my arm
C
Give me one more season with my bird dog Bo
G
Some CDB on the radio

D
Can you bring everybody overseas back safe
Am
And one of these years let the boys win state
C G
Let Grandpa walk through the pearly gates up there

Am
And if it ain’t out of line
C
Could you find a little time
D Am F
For a country boy’s prayer

[Verse]
D
I pray corn grows taller than the scarecrow
Am
And the co-op don’t shut down
C
It’d be nice to get another year
G
Of Daddy’s John Deer breaking ground

G
When you ain’t too busy making this world go ‘round

[Chorus]
D
And could you hold back the city from the family farm
Am
Put some bass in the pond as long as my arm
C
Give me one more season with my bird dog Bo
G
Some CDB on the radio

D
Can you bring everybody overseas back safe
Am
And one of these years let the boys win state
C G
Let Grandpa walk through the pearly gates up there

Am
And if it ain’t out of line
C
Could you find a little time
D Am
For a country boy’s prayer
C G
Whoa yeah

[Break]
C G D
Yeah, I know we’re just a little dot on the map
C G A
But the Good Book says you’ll meet me where I’m at

[Chorus]
D
And could you hold back the city from the family farm
Am
Put some bass in the pond as long as my arm
C
Give me one more season with my bird dog Bo
G
Some Charlie Daniels on the radio

D
Can you bring everybody overseas back safe
Am
And one of these years let the boys win state
C G
Let Grandpa walk through the pearly gates up there

Am
And if it ain’t out of line
C
Could you find a little time

D Am
For a country boy’s prayer
C C D
Country boy’s prayer
