Forty Miles From Popular Bluff
Recorded by Porter Wagoner
Written by Frank Dycus and Larry Kingston

G C
I never had a pair of shoes that weren't old hand me downs
G D7
And daddy's morning coffee came from old left over grounds
G C
My momma wore no jewelry or any store bought stuff
G D7 G
Home was on a hillside forty miles from poplar bluff

D7
Forty miles back in Missouri
C G
There's a different way of life
D7
Where a man thinks of his neighbor
C D7
And not his neighbor's wife
G C
Life is far from fancy sometimes mighty rough
G
But contentment makes it worth it
D7 G
Forty miles from poplar bluff

C
Our only family treasure was a beat up radio
G D7
And it took us to the places where we knew we'd never go
G C
We’d listen to the Grand Ole Opry Bill Monroe and Roy Acuff
G D7 G
There was lots of country music forty miles from poplar bluff

Repeat #2

C
Now sometimes in the winter when the snow was on the ground
G D7
The roads would all be closed and we couldn't get to town
G C
But if daddy had his terbacker and grandma had her snuff
G D7 G
Then the winters wouldn’t seem so long forty miles from poplar bluff

Repeat #2

D7 G
Forty miles from poplar bluff
