That Ain't Country Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Bm]
[D][G][A]

[Verse 1]
What [D]a sad
state of affairs I'm in
'Cause I'm try[Bm]ing to compete
where I just don't fit in
'Cause [D]the coun[G]try, if you call it that,
from off the road
Ain't [A]country just because I'm
old enough to know [D]that[G]

[Verse 2]
That ain't [D]country[G]
That's a natural [D]fact
It's full of [G]tails of good times
and [D]happy endings
[A]My life ain't like that
So I'll [G]keep listening to the [D]old songs
that my [G]Grandad used to [D]play
Full of [G]pain and heartache and [D]desperation
and the [A]ones that got away
The ones that [G]speak to me,
the [A]way I [D]feel today

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][D]
[G][A]
[Bm]
So [A]tell me,

[Verse 3]
[D]
whatever happened to the country songs
Full of [Bm]truth and consequences,
all the things gone wrong
[D]Someone cam[G]e and changed it up,
made it all a lie
I'd like [A]to spit a little beach-nut right
right in that dude's eye

[Verse 4]
[G]'Cause that ain't [D]country[G]
That's a natural [D]fact
It's full of [G]tails of good times
and [D]happy endings
[A]My life ain't like that
So I'll [G]keep listening to [Bm]the [D]old song
[A]s that m[D]y G[G]randad used to p[D]lay
Full of [G]pain and [Bm]heartache and [D]desperation
and the [A]ones that got away
The ones that [G]speak to me,
the [A]way I feel today
[D]

[Verse 5]
[Bm]Now[D][G]
[A]listen here
We [D]got Waylon singing songs
'bout a Ramblin' Man
And Ju[Bm]nior's got a cold one in his hand
And the Pos[G]sum's gettin
drunk again imagine that
And Charlie [A]Daniels playing
fiddle underneath that hat
And [D]John and June are goin'
back and forth again
And [Bm]David Allan Coe is
singing 'bout his kin
And [G]Haggard sings the songs
that'll save your soul
And [A]Willie sings the songs about
the hearts he stole

[Verse 6]
[G]'Cause that [D]shit's country[G]
That's a natural [D]fact
It's full of [G]tails of hard times
and [D]complications[A]
Ain't life like that?
So I'll [G]keep listening to the [D]old songs
that my [G]Grandad used [D]to play
Full of [G]pain and heartache and [D]desperation
and the [A]ones that got away
The ones that [G]speak to me,
the [A]way I feel [Bm]today
[D]The ones that spe[G]ak to me
The [A]way I feel today

[Outro 1]
