[B]
I [E]
sit here by this jukebox in this country bar I've got a hair, some fiddle [F#] and [B] some
steel guitar [D#]
A [B] month ago my loving lady threw me out
Now there's nothing I [G#m] can do so I [E] just do without
This old city brings me down, it ain't been good to me
And it's all that I can do to keep [Em] my sanity But [B] the future's looking bright
And I'm finally feeling right And if it weren't for country music I'd [E] go crazy
[A] I've got holes in my boots, [E] holes in my jeans [B] Holes in my pocket, man [E] you know what that means
[A] What in the far-day I found that you thought [E] my money's all been spent
And [F#] I'd vote for Merle Haggard [B] for president
Play [E] some lefty, play some restless hearts But don't play it tender like it's my [A] small part
[B] But the future's looking bright [A#] [B] And I'm finally feeling [A] right
[B] And if it weren't for country music [E] I'd go crazy Go crazy

[Am] [B] But the future's looking [A] bright [B] And I'm finally feeling [A] right
