Chords

As recorded by Scotty McCreery (From the 2024 Album RISE & FALL) [Intro] D Bm7 G [Verse 1]
       D
He was sittin' on a bar stool, drinkin' Bud heavy

     Bm7
At a tabletop after work

       A
Didn't have to ask his name 'cause I knew it already

       G
It was right there on his shirt

D                                   Bm7
Right under that "No Smoking" sign, he lit up a cigarette

A                                          G
He looked down at that new jukebox, took a sip and shook his head

G
And then he looked at me and said
[Chorus]
   D
"I sure could use a little Swinging Doors

Bm7
What I wouldn't give to hear "Walking The Floor"

G
"Ramblin' Man", "Tight Fittin' Jeans"

           A
I'd drop a twenty in it if it would play "Jolene"

                   D
But there ain't no Dolly and there ain't no Hank

Bm7
"No Paycheck", no man in black

      G                      D/F#               Em7
Those days are gone and thеy ain't comin' back again

           A               D      Bm7  G
There's no country for old men."
[Verse 2]
          D
Hе said, "Whatever happened to them songs about cheatin'

   Bm7
Or drinkin' off a broken heart?

A
Cowboy songs, two steps or a waltz

     G
Twin fiddles and a steel guitar

G
Tell me, how'd we ever get this far?"
[Chorus]
   D
"I sure could use a little Swinging Doors

Bm7
What I wouldn't give to hear "Walking The Floor"

G
"Ramblin' Man", "Tight Fittin' Jeans"

           A
I'd drop a twenty in it if it would play "Jolene"

                   D
But there ain't no Dolly and there ain't no Hank

Bm7
"No Paycheck", no man in black

      G                      D/F#               Em7
Those days are gone and thеy ain't comin' back again

           A               D      Bm7  G
There's no country for old men."
[pedal Steel Solo] G Bm7 G [Bridge]
Am7                     D
What I wouldn't give to turn back time

           G                    D/F# Em7
When three chords and the truth only cost you a dime

Am                  D
Willie, Waylon, or some Patsy Cline

Em7                  A
They're always on my mind
[Out-Chorus]
              D
Oh, but there ain't no Dolly and there ain't no Hank

Bm7
"No Paycheck", no man in black

      G                           D/F#               Em7
Those days are long gone and they ain't comin' back again

           A               D
There's no country for old men

           Bm7    G        D
There's no country for old men

           Bm7                 G               D
There's no country, there's no country for old men
