C5                                                F5
     After three good years together we had our first fight. 
                        C5                         G5
     So she went to her mother's and I went for a drive. 
               C5                                          F5
     Down that old familiar highway just few miles out of town. 
                                C5                   G5
     To that run-down, one-room tavern that used to be my 
              C5
     stompin' grounds. 
     C5
     When I pulled into the driveway everything still looked the 
     F5                             C5
     same.  And I couldn't wait to down a few and hear that 
             G5                C5
     jukebox ring.  But when I walked in through the doorway 
                                     F5
     there stood some kind of maitre-d.  and he looked me up and he 
     C5                        G5              C5
     looked me down and said, "Can I help you please?" 
      
     And I said.   
             C5                        F5
     Chorus: What'd you do with those swingin' doors?  And where's 
                 C5
     the sawdust on the floor?  Why's everybody wearin' them 
     G5                                          C5
     suits and ties?  From where I stand I can't believe my eyes. 
                              F5     
     And whose idea was it to hang these ferns?  This brand-new bar 
                  C5                                          G5
     don't have a single burn.  I guess I'm somewhere that I don't 
                                      F5       C5
     belong.  I need a jukebox with a country song. 
     C5
     When I looked back in the corner where the jukebox once stood 
     F5                              C5
     proud.  Some clown was playin' records... to fast, to long 
            G5             C5
     and to loud.  Well it must've been a big mistake to try to  
              F5                              C5
     speak my mind.  But as they were askin' me to leave, I cried 
     G5           C5
     out one more time.    Repeat Chorus: 
     C5               G5                             F5
     I guess I don't belong without a jukebox and a country 
     C5
     song.
