[Verse]
     C                 G
Well here lies country music

C               G
Had a damn good run

C                G                      D
It took its last Nashville lap around a Ring of Fire sun

     C               G
Jack Daniel's in the front row

      C                G
Right next to steel guitar

    C                  G                    D
The headline said, the cause of death was a lonely broken heart
[Chorus]
           C                   G
'Cause you can't cheat on the radio

      D                     Em
Or be proud of where you're from

C                 G                  D
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads and beer quit getting you drunk

         C               G                   D        Eb    Em
Yeah the thing about all good things is they all come to an end

   C                  G
So here lies country music

     D            G
Rest easy, my old friend
[Post Chorus]

[Verse]
   C            G
It had a couple close calls

     C             G
With names I won't mention

    C                     G            D
But it stayed strong with Always On My Mind and Family Tradition

       C                   G
Helped people through some hard times

     C                  G
More times than you can count

       C                        G              D
So you hate to see three chords and the truth, six feet in the ground
[Chorus]
           C                   G
'Cause you can't cheat on the radio

      D                     Em
Or be proud of where you're from

C                 G                  D
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads and beer quit getting you drunk

         C               G                   D        Eb    Em
Yeah the thing about all good things is they all come to an end

   C                  G
So here lies country music

     D            G
Rest easy, my old friend
[Post-Chorus]
D      C  G  D
Oh-oh
[Bridge]
  C            G
I woke up in a cold sweat

      C              G
To my alarm clock radio

      C                    G               D
A new song came on about a honkytonk drunk heart that just got broke

    C                   G
And I said, "thank you, Jesus"

     C                  G
That dream was all made up

    C             G                       D
And I pray that I leave this world before country music does
[Chorus]
         C                   G
When you can't cheat on the radio

      D                     Em
Or be proud of where you're from

C                 G                  D
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads and beer quit getting you drunk

     C                  G             D           Eb   Em
Yeah I'll tell you some crazy words I never wanna say again

C                  G
Here lies country music

     D            Em
Rest easy, my old friend

C                   G
Thank you, country music

D  C
A--men
