Verse 1:
C majorC       E7E7                Am7Am7
When I need to put my feet back on the ground
 FF         C majorC
I go back to my hometown
    E7E7          Am7Am7
When I need a night to act my age
     FF              C majorC
Me and my friends stay out too late
      E7E7           Am7Am7
And when I need to feel good in my skin
      FF          C majorC
I drop everything and run to him
       E7E7             Am7Am7
When nothin' makes sense, but I need to talk
       FF
That's when I call my mom

Chorus:
          C majorC        E7E7
But I wanna write a country song
       Am7Am7      FF
When nothin's gentle on my mind
        C majorC         E7E7
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
    Am7Am7      FF
And I'm almost out of wine
   C majorC         E7E7
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
 Am7Am7         FF
Whether it's right or wrong
       Dm7Dm7           E minorEm
I stay up all night, done it my whole life
          FF  F minorFm
Sometimes you gotta write  a country song

C majorC E7E7 Am7Am7 FF

Verse 2:
C majorC   E7E7            Am7Am7
Got me through the drama with my ex
   FF           C majorC
The first time that I had sex
      E7E7             Am7Am7
The day the word "divorce" got really real
         FF
My first year in Nashville
       C majorC               E7E7
Maybe it's 'cause of my raisin' or what my parents were playin'
     Am7Am7             FF
Or when I feel my heart breakin', no hesitation

Chorus:

         C majorC        E7E7
I go and write a country song
       Am7Am7      FF
When nothin's gentle on my mind
        C majorC         E7E7
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
    Am7Am7      FF
And I'm almost out of wine
   C majorC         E7E7
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
 Am7Am7         FF
Whether it's right or wrong
       Dm7Dm7           E minorEm
I stay up all night, done it my whole life
          FF  F minorFm
Sometimes you gotta write  a country song


Bridge:
C majorC       E7E7                Am7Am7
 'Bout love, 'bout lies, 'bout my baby's truck
      FF
Real life, that's the stuff, yeah
C majorC       E7E7              Am7Am7
 First kiss, last call, bad breakin' ups
     FF
My life, that's what


Chorus:
         C majorC       E7E7
Makes me write a country song
        Am7Am7     FF
When nothin's gentle on my mind
         C majorC        E7E7
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
   Am7Am7      FF
And now I'm out of wine
   C majorC         E7E7
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
Am7Am7          FF
Whether it's right or wrong
        Dm7Dm7        E minorEm
Gets me every time, story of my life
          FF  F minorFm
There ain't nothin' like  a country song
