 G   Em7   Cadd9   Dx2
What a Gsad state of affairs I'm in
'Cause I'm Em7tryin' to compete where I just don't fit in
'Cause the Cadd9country if you'd call it that from off the row
Ain't Dcountry, trust-me 'cause I'm oooold-enough to know that
Cadd9That ain't Gcountry
Cadd9That's a natural Gfact
It's full of Cadd9tales of good times and Ghappy endings
DMy life ain't like that
So I'll keep Cadd9listenin' to the Gold songs
That my Cadd9granddad used to Gplay
Full of Cadd9pain and heartache and Gdesperation
And the Dones that got away
The ones that Cadd9speak to me
The Dway I feel today
G Em7 Cadd9 D
So tell me, Gwhatever happened to the country songs
Full of Em7truth and consequences or the things gone wrong?
Someone Cadd9came and changed it up, and made it all a lie
I'd like tDo spit a little beechnut right in that dude's eye, cause
Cadd9That ain't Gcountry
Cadd9That's a natural Gfact
It's full of Cadd9tales of good times and Ghappy endings
DMy life ain't like that
So I'll keep Cadd9listenin' to the Gold songs
That my Cadd9granddad used to Gplay
Full of Cadd9pain and heartache and Gdesperation
And the Dones that got away
The ones that Cadd9speak to me
The Dway I feel today
G Em7 Cadd9 D
Now Listen here...
       G (Strum once, let ring)
We got Waylon singin' songs 'bout a ramblin' man
    Em7 (Strum once, let ring)
And Junior's got a cold one in his hand
        Cadd9 (Strum once, let ring)
And the Possum's gettin' drunk again, imagine that
And Charlie DDaniels playin' fiddle underneath that hat
And GJohn and June are goin' back and forth again
And Em7David Allen Coe is singin' 'bout his kin
And Cadd9Haggard sings the songs that'll save your soul
And DWillie sings the songs about the hearts he's stole, 'cause
Cadd9That shit's Gcountry
Cadd9That's a natural Gfact
It's full of Cadd9tales of hard times and Gcomplications
DAin't life like that?
So I'll be Cadd9listenin' to the Gold songs
That my Cadd9granddad used to Gplay
Full of Cadd9pain and heartache and Gdesperation
