That Aint Country(Chords)

	        Intro: G Em7 Cadd9 D x2 


       G 
What a sad state of affairs I'm in 
           Em7 
'Cause I'm tryin' to compete where I just don't fit in 
    Cadd9 
The country if you'd call it that from off the row 
         D 
It ain't country, trust me 'cause I'm old enough to know that 


Cadd9      G 
That ain't country 
Cadd9            G 
That's a natural fact 
             Cadd9                   G 
It's full of tales of good times and happy endings 
D 
My life ain't like that 
           Cadd9            G 
So I'll be listenin' to the old songs 
        Cadd9            G 
That my granddad used to play 
        Cadd9                  G 
Full of pain and heartache and desperation 
        D 
And the ones that got away 
               Cadd9 
The songs that speak to me 
    D 
The way I feel today 


G Em7 Cadd9 D

So tell me, whatever happened to the country songs 
        Em7 
Full of truth and consequences or the things gone wrong? 
        Cadd9 
Someone came and changed it up, made it all a lie 
          D 
Like this _______ and that ______, 'cause 


Cadd9      G

G Em7 Cadd9 D 

       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 Parson's gettin' drunk again, imagine that 
             D 
With Charlie Daniels playin' fiddle underneath that hat 
G 
John and Junior goin' back and forth again 
    Em7 
And David Allen Coe is singin' 'bout his kin 
Cadd9 
Haggard sings the songs that'll save your soul 
D 
Willie's songs are all about the hearts he's stole, 'cause 


Cadd9       G 
That shit's country 
Cadd9            G 
That's a natural fact 
             Cadd9                   G 
It's full of tales of hard times and complications 
D 
Ain't life like that? 
           Cadd9            G 
So I'll be listenin' to the old songs 
        Cadd9            G 
That my granddad used to play 
        Cadd9                  G 
Full of pain and heartache and desperation 
        D 
And the ones that got away 
               Cadd9 
The songs that speak to me 
    D          Em7 
The way I feel today 
               Cadd9 
The songs that speak to me 
    D 
The way I feel today
