Capo 4



   D    A   Bm   G
Now I know how Merle Haggard felt
    D        A  Bm   G
when he sang the words mama tried
     D      A    Bm   G
And I've lived those teenage Friday nights
    D     A      Bm    G
With a pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
    D    A   Bm    G
And that summer Becky broke my heart
  D     A     Bm   G
Alabama sang old flame burnin'

Well I've danced with George Strait
A
Drank with George Jones
  G       A    D
My life's been a country song



Chorus:
        Bm        G
It's all about fallin' down and gettin' back up
D          A
Your good times and hard luck
Bm      G
True love and amazing grace
D           A
Workin' all week for a back ache
Bm       G
 Raisin' cane, Friday nights,
D        A
Sunday church to set it right
     G    A   Bm
They can write it on my stone,
  G       A    D
My life's been a country song




   D    A    Bm
Now I know how Paycheck felt
    G    D          A    Bm   G
When he told his boss he can take his job and shove it
     D    A     Bm   G
And I've had the girl that made me say
  D     A     Bm       G
'I like it, I love it, I want some more of it'
    D   A   Bm    G     D
And I'll always remember just where I was
     A       Bm   G
When the world stopped turnin'

Through the good and the bad,
  A
The right and the wrong
  G       A    D
My life's been a country song



        Bm        G
It's all about fallin' down and gettin' back up
D          A
Your good times and hard luck
Bm      G
True love and amazing grace
D           A
Workin' all week for a back ache
Bm       G
 Raisin' cane, Friday nights,
D        A
Sunday church to set it right
     G    A   Bm
They can write it on my stone,
  G       A    D
My life's been a country song



Bridge:
A       G      D/F#      A
It's been the words when I couldn't find 'em
A G        D/F# A
A friend when I've been alone
 A      G    D/F#     A     E
It's been the toast to things remembered, the strength for movin on



        Bm        G
It's all about fallin' down and gettin' back up
D          A
Your good times and hard luck
Bm      G
True love and amazing grace
D           A
Workin' all week for a back ache
Bm       G
 Raisin' cane, Friday nights,
D        A
Sunday church to set it right
     G    A   Bm
They can write it on my stone,
  G       A    D
My life's been a country song

Bm G D A

   G      A     D
Oh my life's been a country song
