[Verse]
A7          E         
Down around San Antone
              D         A   E          
And the folks are risin for another day
E                      
Round about their homes
    D         A        E   Dbm    
The people of the town are strange
    B       A                   C   
And they're proud of where they came


[Chorus]
E                       D     A    
Well you're talkin bout china grove
E  D     A    
Oh china grove
E        D A E                         
Well the ■ ■ ■ preacher and the teacher


[Verse]
E                     
Lord they're a caution
D            A           E   
They are the talk of the town
         E7                  
When the gossip gets to flyin
    E              
And they ain't lyin
     D       A               
When the sun goes fallin down
E    Dbm                   B     
They say that the father's insane
    A                     C   
And dear missus Perkins a game


[Chorus]
E                          D    
Were talkin bout the china grove
   A     E D A    
Oh china ■ ■ grove
E D Dbm A E
■ ■ ■   ■ ■
Dbm                                   
But every day theres a new thing comin
    Gbm                 Dbm  Dbm7
The ways of an oriental view ■   
Dbm7                       
The sheriff and his buddies
     Dbm7                
With their samurai swords
Gb7                                 
You can even hear the music at night
    B7 Dbm7                                     
And ■  though it's a part of the lone star state
Gbm                  Dbm 
People don't seem to care
A                                   
They just keep on lookin to the east
