Misc Originals – Bill Dickson - That Damn Country Song (Guitar)

C                              F            C
I wish I’d never written that damn country song,

                                  G
Every word that I wrote has come true,

          C                        F            C
I should never have mentioned the heartache and pain,

                    G                 C         G
Oh the sorrow that song will put me through.

          C                            F                 C
Like the girl in the first verse you broke my heart and run,

                              G
With a cowboy who rides the rodeo,

        C                             F            C
Oh and now my biggest fear when I’m talking to my beer,

                  G                C
Some fool at the jukebox plays my song.

               F                           C
Now there’s a hole in my soul, where your love used to shine,

                                         G
Where your kiss and your embrace still abide,

                 F                     C
There’s nothing left of my heart, you tore it apart,

                       G              C      G
And pieces are still falling from my eyes.

       C                      F               C
Verse two is when I saw you across a crowded bar,

                                           G
You laughed and kissed the cowboy on your arm,

        C                    F            C
Well I had another drink and tried not to think,

                       G              C
I tried to drink that kiss out of my mind.

               F                           C
Now there’s a hole in my soul, where your love used to shine,

                                         G
Where your kiss and your embrace still abide,

                 F                     C
There’s nothing left of my heart, you tore it apart,

                       G              C     G  A  D
And pieces are still falling from my eyes.

       D                              G             D
Verse three I’ll be in my truck, when I run out of luck,

                                               A7
I won't see that warning sign for the Devil's Bend,

         D                     G            D
Your memory will fill my mind and as I lay dyin',

                             A7              D
I’ll hear a choir of angels sing my country song.

               G                           D
Now there’s a hole in my soul, where your love used to shine,

                                         A7
Where your kiss and your embrace still abide,

                  G                    D
There’s nothing left of my heart, you tore it apart,

                       A7              
And pieces are still falling,

D                  A7
Pieces are still falling,

D                     A7              D      A7  D
The pieces are still falling from my eyes.
