No Capo
Note: The C chord fingering changes a little bit in
the intro, the first part of the song and the ending C chord.
You can play it as X32013 first and then play it right after
that as 332010.
Intro DO FA DO SOL
DO
Where 69 meets 40,
There's a single stop light town,
FA
And back when I was really young,
LAm SOL
Part of that burned down,
DO
On any given Friday night,
We'd drive a hundred miles,
FA
Between the Sonic and the Grocery Store,
LAm SOL
Laughin' all the while,
LAm SOL
With as many friends as I could pack,
FA
In my daddy's Ford,
LAm SOL FA DO
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.
DO
My hotel in Manhattan,
FA
Holds more people than our town,
DO
And what I just paid for dinner,
SOL
Would be a down payment on a house,
LAm SOL
I'd rather be tippin' cows in Tulsa,
FA
Then hailing cabs here in New York,
LAm SOL FA DO
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.
Chorus
FA
I'm in a world so wide,
DO
It makes me feel small sometimes,
LAm SOL
I miss the big blue skies,
FA
The Oklahoma kind.
DO
In a world of long red carpets,
FA
The bright lights of Hollywood,
DO
All the paparazzi flashin'
SOL
Can make a girl feel pretty good,
LAm SOL
You can get anything you want here,
FA
Except a Wal-Mart store,
LAm SOL FA DO
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.
Chorus
FA
I'm in a world so wide,
DO
It makes me feel small sometimes,
LAm SOL
I miss the big blue skies,
FA
The Oklahoma kind.
SOL
Where the Wildcats beat the Ironheads,
Old Settler's day and the Okrafest,
After prom down at the bowling lanes,
Catchin' crappy fish in Eufaula lake,
LAm SOL FA FAsus4
I ain't in Checotah anymore.
FA DO FAsus4 FA SOL
Oh Yeah...
Chorus
FA
I'm in a world so wide,
DO
It makes me feel small sometimes,
LAm SOL
I miss the big blue skies,
FA
The Oklahoma kind,
LAm SOL FA
But I ain't in Checotah,
LAm SOL FA
No I ain't in Checotah,
LAm SOL FA
Oh, there's nothing like Oklahoma.
DO
Where 69 meets 40,
There's a single stoplight town
