Chords/Tabulature for
Country Girl

Version 1 submitted by:Malc Brooks (malc@malbro.demon.co.uk)
Version 2 submitted by:Patrick Leurs

Notes about this song:

  • Version 1 transcribed by Malc, inspired by the version of Down, Down , Down from the Buffalo Springfield Box Set. Dropped standard tuning. Note from Malc: The BS version is in standard tuning and the CSNY version, IMO, uses the same chords as Version 1 but in dropped standard. Using this tuning you are able to get that bass run at the end, which never worked out with the Am capo 3 version.
  • Version 2 transcribed by Patrick Leurs, based on the transcription of Jeff Bialac (bialac@cae.wisc.edu). Standard tuning with capo on 3rd fret.
Version 1:  Dropped Standard (DGCFAD)

While stars sit in bars and decide what they're
drinking,

They drop by to die cause it's faster than sinking.

If I could stand to see her crying I would tell her
not to care;
