WHEN COUNTRY CAME BACK TO TOWN

BRENT COBB

[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
