Intro:

E MajorE C# minorC#m BB
E MajorE C# minorC#m BB


Verse 1:

E MajorE           C# minorC#m  BB
Pour out your heart on 3:20
  E MajorE       C# minorC#m     BB
The one you didn't write for the money
E MajorE        C# minorC#m     BB  A augmentedA
You turn it in, nobody's listening
E MajorE             C# minorC#m  BB
But you got a cut, so the check's coming
E MajorE            C# minorC#m   BB
If it ain't a single, it don't mean nothing
E MajorE         C# minorC#m      BB    A augmentedA
Every girl with a dream wants to be your friend

Chorus:

A augmentedA          C# minorC#m    BB
One day, you're the king, the next you're not
A augmentedA          C# minorC#m      BB
It's handshakes and whiskey shots, boy
  A augmentedA       C# minorC#m     BB     A augmentedA
And throwing up in parking lots all by yourself
  A augmentedA           C# minorC#m BB
But i ain't never leaving Nashville
A augmentedA           C# minorC#m BB  A augmentedA
I ain't never leaving Nashville


Verse 2:

E MajorE             C# minorC#m BB
You're getting calls from old friends
      E MajorE            C# minorC#m  BB
They say, "heard your song – wanna write again?"
E MajorE           C# minorC#m    BB      A augmentedA
You're coming up with brand new ways to say no
      E MajorE     C# minorC#m    BB
Then you're six months without a hold
E MajorE            C# minorC#m   BB
Every other day, you're getting canceled
E MajorE            C# minorC#m       BB   A augmentedA
Calling up old friends; that's just the way it goes

Chorus 2:

A augmentedA          C# minorC#m    BB
One day, you're the king, the next you're not
A augmentedA        C# minorC#m     BB
Handshakes and whiskey shots
A augmentedA         C# minorC#m     BB      A augmentedA
And throwing up in parking lots all gone to hell
   A augmentedA              C# minorC#m   BB
Well, i ain't never leaving Nashville
A augmentedA           C# minorC#m   BB   A augmentedA
i ain't never leaving Nashville


Bridge:

       A augmentedA            BB
Oh, and your friends are friends with country stars
       C# minorC#m       E MajorE
Yeah, they're buying homes and here you are
    A augmentedA        C# minorC#m  BB A augmentedA
You're two months from living in your car

A augmentedA              C# minorC#m  BB
But you ain't never leaving Nashville
A augmentedA            C# minorC#m   BB  A augmentedA
You ain't never leaving Nashville


Chorus:

A augmentedA            C# minorC#m    BB
Ooh, one day, you're the king, the next you're not
A augmentedA       C# minorC#m     BB
Handshakes and whiskey shots
A augmentedA       C# minorC#m     BB        A augmentedA
To picking up the pieces you lost of yourself

   A augmentedA           C# minorC#m   BB
Well, i ain't never leaving Nashville
A augmentedA           C# minorC#m  BB
I ain't never leaving Nashville
A augmentedA           C# minorC#m  BB
I ain't never leaving Nashville
A augmentedA           C# minorC#m  BB
I ain't never leaving Nashville
A augmentedA           C# minorC#m  BB
I ain't never leaving this town

A augmentedA           C# minorC#m  BB
