[Intro]
D Am D Am7 Am
[Verse]
D Am
I was there when Shooter Jennings rewound the sound like a cassette
G C G
I watched Jamey Johnson cut (You) "Can't Cash My Checks"
D A
Back then Rowdy Jason Cope was running shine sunset to vine
C G
Picking songs with Leroy Powell, making redneck isms rhyme
D A
I guess now everyone knows Cousin Dave but he been around awhile
C G
Proving simple truths and music, they just don't go out of style
D Am
It's hard to tell and when you're in it sometimes the moment's too profound
C
But if I had to bet my money
G D Am
That's when country came back to town
[Verse]
D A
Right after that I moved to Nashville and most the Broadways stars
C G
Wanted to be Cody Canada, Ryan Bingham or Hayes Carll
D A
They seemed too cautious to commit, so they surrendered to the game
C G
But nobody sang like Brandi Carlile or wrote like Nikki Lane
D Am
But you couldn't deny that it was lost or how it would be found
C
But when Sturgill climbed High Top Mountain
G D D
Country came back to town
[Chorus]
C G D
Beyond the pickups and the backroads, you could almost hear it play
C G D
Though it was softer than a whisper through the pines
C G D
Some say it never left, some say that it got saved
C G D
Some say, like everything, it changes over time
C G
Well all I know for certain is I'm glad I was around
C G D
When country came back to town
Am G D
Oh, when country came back to town
[Verse]
D A
As the divide grew even greater between commerce and art
C G
Folks like Miranda Lambert kept the beat inside its heart
D A
Right along with Chris and Morgane and Kacey Musgraves too
C G
What took the world so long to catch on, for us was nothing new
D Am
By the time the torch was passed and the hatchet was laid down
C
Music Row had nearly burned to ash
G D D
When country came back to town
[Chorus]
C G D
Beyond the pickups and the backroads, you could almost hear it play
C G D
Though it was softer than a whisper through the pines
C G D
Some say it never left, some say that it got saved
C G D
Some say, like everything, it changes over time
C G
Well all I know for certain is I'm glad I was around
C G D
When country came back to town
Am G D
Oh, when country came back to town
[Instrumental/Solo]
D Am C G
D Am C G
D Am D Am
[Verse]
D A
Now here we are eighteen years later with a list a mile long
C G
Of names like Childers, Jinks, Price, and Whitey, Hood, Shook, Cook, Cauthen and Combs
D A
Lord knows it's hard to name them all, but hell, right off the top of my head
C G
Isbell, Eady, Patton, Moonpies, Turnpike, Colter, and Crockett
D Am
And won't be stopping, no name dropping till history books echo the sound
C G
Of all the folks who saddled up and drove country
D Am
Back to town
D Am G D
Oh, back to town
