Capo 4


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

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

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

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

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


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


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


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

B minorBm G+G D MajorD A augmentedA

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