Aaron Lewis - That Aint Country

      Capo on 2

[Intro] E C#m A B x2

[Verse]
       E
What a sad state of affairs I'm in
           C#m
'Cause I'm tryin' to compete where I just don't fit in
    A
The country if you'd call it that from off the row
         B
It ain't country, trust me 'cause I'm old enough to know that

[Chorus]
A          E
That ain't country
A                E
That's a natural fact
             A                       E
It's full of tales of good times and happy endings
B
My life ain't like that
           A                E
So I'll be listenin' to the old songs
        A                E
That my granddad used to play
        A                      E
Full of pain and heartache and desperation
        B
And the ones that got away
               A
The songs that speak to me
    B
The way I feel today

[Bridge]  E C#m7 Aadd9 B

[Verse 2]
            E
So tell me, whatever happened to the country songs
        C#m
Full of truth and consequences or the things gone wrong?
        A
Someone came and changed it up, made it all a lie
          B
I'd like to spit a little beechnut right in that dude's eye, cause

[Chorus]
A          E
That ain't country
A                E
That's a natural fact
             A                       E
It's full of tales of good times and happy endings
B
My life ain't like that
           A                E
So I'll be listenin' to the old songs
        A                E
That my granddad used to play
        A                      E
Full of pain and heartache and desperation
        B
And the ones that got away
               A
The songs that speak to me
    B
The way I feel today

[Breakdown]
       E 
We got Waylon singin' songs 'bout a ramblin' man
    C#m7 
And Junior's got a cold one in his hand
        A
And the Possum's gettin' drunk again, imagine that
             B
With Charlie Daniels playin' fiddle underneath that hat
E
John and June are goin' back and forth again
    C#m
And David Allen Coe is singin' 'bout his kin
A
Haggard sings the songs that'll save your soul
B
Willie's songs are all about the hearts he's stole, 'cause

[Chorus]
A           E
That shit's country
A                E
That's a natural fact
             A                       E
It's full of tales of hard times and complications
B
Ain't life like that?
           A               E
So I'll be listenin' to the old songs
        A                E
That my granddad used to play
        A                      E
Full of pain and heartache and desperation
        B
And the ones that got away
               A
The songs that speak to me
    B          C#m
The way I feel today
               A
The songs that speak to me
    B
The way I feel today

[Outro] E C#m A B x2
