Told all my buddies, on the block good bye,
as we drove away I wiped, a [G]tear from my eye,
I thought my life had come to an early end,
but this is where the [C]sto-ry begins
My daddy promised me, Id make new friends,
but still I wondered how, in a [G]town of only ten,
There at the dairy queen my first night,
have mer-cy, it was [C]love at first sight
Chorus:
[C]Thank God for country girls,
big blue eyes and [G]long blonde curls,
I wouldnt miss this for the whole wide world,
Thank God for [C]country girls.
[C]She was all by herself, sittin at a corner booth,
Wearin a summer dress and a [G]pair of cowgirl boots,
I heard her hummin a Merle Haggard song,
I looked down, my [C]heart was gone.
I walked up to her, she saw my hesitation,
I asked her if she had a dinner [G]reservation,
she said Id love to have your company,
I said hello love, good[C]bye mister lonely
[C]Thank God for country girls,
big blue eyes and [G]long blonde curls,
I wouldnt miss this for the whole wide world,
Thank God for [C]country girls.
[C]I told my friends back home they were missin out,
so they came to see what the [G]fuss was all about,
before the first night had come and gone,
C N.C
they were all singin my song, and they sang,
[C]Thank God for country girls,
big blue eyes and [G]long blonde curls,
I wouldnt miss this for the whole wide world,
Thank God for [C]country girls.
