No capo. Standard tuning.
[Verse 1]
EI remember when I heard Haggard tell us Ahow his momma Ecried.
And the man in black played Folsum for the B7boys locked up inside.
And old EGeorge and the Jones boys let us Aknow the race was Eon.
And Willie and Walen went outlaw playin on a B7stage out in ole TusEon.E7  
[Chorus]
APlay me some old time country, the kind of Emusic that soothes my soul,
like B7we used to hear when we listed to the Grand Old EOprey on A.M. E7radio.
AI miss the sound of them fiddles, and the Ewhine of steel guitars.
Take me B7back to when life was simple. Let me hear the old time country Estars.
[Verse 2]
Ethere was Roy, Hank, and Lefty, sweet ALoreta and Patsy ECline.
Ledgends heard at the Ryman have B7made that place a shrine.
But what Eever happened to the golden sonunds? Why, Athey must have slipped Eaway.
I don't hear no country in that B7shit they play Etoday.E7  
[Chorus]
APlay me some old time country, the kind of Emusic that soothes my soul,
like B7we used to hear when we listed to the Grand Old EOprey on A.M. E7radio.
AI miss the sound of them fiddles, and the Ewhine of steel guitars.
Take me B7back to when life was simple. Let me hear the old time country Estars.
[Outro]
Take me B7back to when life was simple. Let me hear the old time country Estars.
