[ Предположительная тональность: E ] Capo on 2 [Intro] E C#m A B x2 [Verse] E What a sad state of affairs I'm in C#m 'Cause I'm tryin' to compete where I just don't fit in A The country if you'd call it that from off the row B It ain't country, trust me 'cause I'm old enough to know that [Chorus] A E That ain't country A E That's a natural fact A E It's full of tales of good times and happy endings B My life ain't like that A E So I'll be listenin' to the old songs A E That my granddad used to play A E Full of pain and heartache and desperation B And the ones that got away A The songs that speak to me B The way I feel today [Bridge] E C#m7 Aadd9 B [Verse 2] E So tell me, whatever happened to the country songs C#m Full of truth and consequences or the things gone wrong? A Someone came and changed it up, made it all a lie B I'd like to spit a little beechnut right in that dude's eye, cause [Chorus] A E That ain't country A E That's a natural fact A E It's full of tales of good times and happy endings B My life ain't like that A E So I'll be listenin' to the old songs A E That my granddad used to play A E Full of pain and heartache and desperation B And the ones that got away A The songs that speak to me B The way I feel today [Breakdown] E We got Waylon singin' songs 'bout a ramblin' man C#m7 And Junior's got a cold one in his hand A And the Possum's gettin' drunk again, imagine that B With Charlie Daniels playin' fiddle underneath that hat E John and June are goin' back and forth again C#m And David Allen Coe is singin' 'bout his kin A Haggard sings the songs that'll save your soul B Willie's songs are all about the hearts he's stole, 'cause [Chorus] A E That shit's country A E That's a natural fact A E It's full of tales of hard times and complications B Ain't life like that? A E So I'll be listenin' to the old songs A E That my granddad used to play A E Full of pain and heartache and desperation B And the ones that got away A The songs that speak to me B C#m The way I feel today A The songs that speak to me B The way I feel today [Outro] E C#m A B x2 [End on] E
