[Intro]
 Am   G   F   EmX2
[Verse 1]
AmI'm no Hank, I'm no Waylon
GI'm also not claiming it's country I'm playing
FMusic changes and that's no news
EmBut that ain't country it's rhythm and bluesG  
AmHip hop beats and shiny boots
GBedazzled jeans replaced Nudie Suits
FI'm not here trying to say you're wrong
EmBut you're dropping more names than a DAC sGong
AmGone are the days of speakin' your heart
GThey got a fat check so they sold out art
FAs long as someone's getting paid
EmWho gives a damn about music anywayG  
[Chorus]
AmBring back the songs that make a grown man cry
GLess pop stars more Patsy Clines
FA song so sad it brings a tear to my eye
EmOr a steel guitar that makes me feel highG  
AmCause Country ain't something that you put on
GIt's your heart and your soul right there in a song
FThe radio these days makes me cry
EmBut for a different reason
GCause Country dAmied
[Steel Solo]
 Am   G   F   EmX2
[Verse 2]
AmPassion and values and talent got tossed
GMakin' people feel got written off
FSo I'm dressed in black to mourn the loss
EmWhile they cash their checks no matter the costG  
AmMake it catchy make it sell
GAll originality can go to hell
FAs long as they can cast their spell
EmThey'll punch that clock and ring that bellG  
AmWe keep in tune with what feels real
GKeep it independent no record deal
FLivin' on dreams wrapped in Teal
EmAnd we try to bring you something that makes you feeGl
[Chorus]
AmBring back the songs that make a grown man cry
GLess pop stars more Patsy Clines
FA song so sad it brings a tear to my eye
EmOr a steel guitar that makes me feel highG  
AmCause Country ain't something that you put on
GIt's your heart and your soul right there in a song
FThe radio these days makes me cry
EmBut for a different reason
GCause Country dAmied
[Lead Solo]
 Am   G   F   EmX2
[Chorus]
AmBring back the songs that make a grown man cry
GLess pop stars more Patsy Clines
FA song so sad it brings a tear to my eye
EmOr a steel guitar that makes me feel highG  
AmCause Country ain't something that you put on
GIt's your heart and your soul right there in a song
FThe radio these days makes me cry
EmBut for a different reason
GCause Country dAmied

[Intro]

Am G F Em

[Verse 1]

I'm no Hank, I'm no Waylon

I'm also not claiming it's country I'm playing

Music changes and that's no news

Em G

But that ain't country it's rhythm and blues

Hip hop beats and shiny boots

Bedazzled jeans replaced Nudie Suits

I'm not here trying to say you're wrong

Em G

But you're dropping more names than a DAC song

Gone are the days of speakin' your heart

They got a fat check so they sold out art

As long as someone's getting paid

Em G

Who gives a damn about music anyway

[Chorus]

Bring back the songs that make a grown man cry

Less pop stars more Patsy Clines

A song so sad it brings a tear to my eye

Em G

Or a steel guitar that makes me feel high

Cause Country ain't something that you put on

It's your heart and your soul right there in a song

The radio these days makes me cry

But for a different reason

G Am

Cause Country died

[Steel Solo]

Am G F Em

[Verse 2]

Passion and values and talent got tossed

Makin' people feel got written off

So I'm dressed in black to mourn the loss

Em G

While they cash their checks no matter the cost

Make it catchy make it sell

All originality can go to hell

As long as they can cast their spell

Em G

They'll punch that clock and ring that bell

We keep in tune with what feels real

Keep it independent no record deal

Livin' on dreams wrapped in Teal

Em G

And we try to bring you something that makes you feel

[Chorus]

Bring back the songs that make a grown man cry

Less pop stars more Patsy Clines

A song so sad it brings a tear to my eye

Em G

Or a steel guitar that makes me feel high

Cause Country ain't something that you put on

It's your heart and your soul right there in a song

The radio these days makes me cry

But for a different reason

G Am

Cause Country died

[Lead Solo]

Am G F Em

[Chorus]

Bring back the songs that make a grown man cry

Less pop stars more Patsy Clines

A song so sad it brings a tear to my eye

Em G

Or a steel guitar that makes me feel high

Cause Country ain't something that you put on

It's your heart and your soul right there in a song

The radio these days makes me cry

But for a different reason

G Am

Cause Country died

[Outro]

Am G F Em
