Jay Buckey has an arrangement of this in G on his site.

 

         C                         F

When you live in the country, everybody is your neighbor.

   C                        G

On this one thing you can rely.

        C                       F

They'll all come to see you and never, ever leave you;

         C             G              C

Sayin', "Y'all come to see us bye and bye!"

 

CHORUS:

              F                C                             G

"Y'all come.  Y'all come.  Oh, y'all come to see us when you can!

      C      F                C             G              C

Y'all come.  Y'all come.  Oh, y'all come to see us now and then."

 

Kinfolks a-comin'; they're comin' by the dozen.

CHORUS:

And help do the dishes right away.

But they all start a-leavin', even though she's a-grievin'.

You can still hear Grandmaw say:

 

CHORUS:
