True Life Country Music

E  A   E  A   E  A   E  A

[Verse 1]
          E                 F#m                Abm        F#m
I went to looking 'bout the way made Crystal's brown eyes blue
      A                   Abm             F#m           B
I was there behind closed doors the night Sammy made it through
     E               F#m        E             A
In a pawn shop in Chicago I saw Tammy leavin' Jones
          F#m                E                  A             Bsus4 B
I've seen broken streams and broken dreams that led to broken hoooooomes

[Verse 2]
     E            F#m         Abm              F#m
In a barroom in Toledo with a girl they call Lucille
     A               Abm       F#m                 B
On a train bound for nowhere I watched the Gambler deal
          E                F#m            E            A
Spent the night in Detroit City, you were Gentle On My Mind
   F#m              E                 A                B
On Country Roads so far from home, So Lonesome I Could Cryyyyy

[Chorus]
         E         A         E     A
'Cos I'm true life - country music
E      A     E
Listen to my lines
           A         B         C#m A
You'll see true life - country people
            E      A        E
They're the reason - for my rhymes
            E      A        E     A   E  A
They're the reason - for my rhymes

[Verse 3]
       E            F#m           Abm               F#m
I know every man in Folsom, every trucker who can't sleep
       A              E        F#m              B7
Then a prayer for the Wino who dreamed of satin sheets
  E             F#m          E            A
I rode with Roy Acuff on the Wabash Cannonball
    F#m               E        A                  B
I'm true life country music, I guess I've seen it all

[Chorus]
         E         A         E     A
'Cos I'm true life - country music
E      A     E
Listen to my lines
           A         B         C#m A
You'll see true life - country people
            E      A        E
They're the reason - for my rhymes
            E      A        E     B
They're the reason - for my rhymes

[Chorus]
         E         A         E     A
'Cos I'm true life - country music
E      A     E
Listen to my lines
           A         B         C#m A
You'll see true life - country people
            E      A        E
They're the reason - for my rhymes
            E      A        E     A   E  A    E
They're the reason - for my rhymes
