[Verse]
         E                                   
When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town
D    A          E     
Down around San Antone
        E                               
And the folks are risin' for another day
D      A           E    
'round about their homes
C#m                        B      
The people of the town are strange
    A                           C7   C
And they're proud of where they came ■


[Chorus]
A7          E                       D    
■  Well you talkin' 'bout the China Grove
A    E  D C#m   E     D A
Whoa oh ■ China Grove ■ ■


[Verse]
E                                  
■ Well the preacher and the teacher
     E                
Lord they're a caution
D        A               E   
They are the talk of the town
         E                                         
When the gossip gets to flyin' and they ain't lyin'
         D   A            E   
When the sun goes fallin' down
     C#m                   B     
They say that the father's insane
A                       C7  
And dear Mrs Perkin's a game


[Chorus]
     E                       D     A
Well talkin' 'bout the China Grove ■
     E  D A       E     D A E
Whoa oh ■ ■ China Grove ■ ■ ■
C#m7                                    
But every day there's a new thing comin'
F#m7                    C#m7 Amaj7
The ways of an oriental view ■    
C#m7                                                 
The sheriff and his buddies with their samurai swords
F#                                   F#sus4
You can even hear the music at night ■     
G#m7 C#m7                                         
■    And though it's a part of the Lone Star State
F#                   C#m 
People don't seem to care
A                                    
They just keep on lookin' to the east
