I had a little trouble with the bridge, so if you have
a better idea, please let me know.



Capo 4



      D5        A5     B5      G5            
Now I know how Merle Haggard felt 
        D5               A5   B5     G5
when he sang the words mama tried
         D5           A5       B5     G5
And I've lived those teenage Friday nights 
       D5          A5           B5       G5
With a pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight 
        D5       A5     B5       G5
And that summer Becky broke my heart
   D5         A5         B5      G5
Alabama sang old flame burnin' 

Well I've danced with George Strait
A5
Drank with George Jones
   G5             A5       D5
My life's been a country song



Chorus:
               B5               G5
It's all about fallin' down and gettin' back up 
D5                   A5
Your good times and hard luck 
B5            G5
True love and amazing grace
D5                      A5
Workin' all week for a back ache
B5              G5
  Raisin' cane, Friday nights, 
D5                A5
Sunday church to set it right
         G5        A5     B5
They can write it on my stone, 
   G5             A5       D5
My life's been a country song




      D5        A5        B5   
Now I know how Paycheck felt 
        G5        D5                    A5       B5      G5
When he told his boss he can take his job and shove it
         D5       A5         B5      G5
And I've had the girl that made me say
   D5          A5          B5             G5
'I like it, I love it, I want some more of it'
        D5     A5     B5        G5         D5
And I'll always remember just where I was 
         A5             B5      G5
When the world stopped turnin'

Through the good and the bad,
    A5
The right and the wrong
   G5             A5       D5
My life's been a country song



               B5               G5
It's all about fallin' down and gettin' back up 
D5                   A5
Your good times and hard luck 
B5            G5
True love and amazing grace
D5                      A5
Workin' all week for a back ache
B5              G5
  Raisin' cane, Friday nights, 
D5                A5
Sunday church to set it right
         G5        A5     B5
They can write it on my stone, 
   G5             A5       D5
My life's been a country song



Bridge:
A5             G5            D5           A5
It's been the words when I couldn't find 'em
A5  G5               D5  A5
A friend when I've been alone 
 A5            G5        D5         A5          E5
It's been the toast to things remembered, the strength for movin on



               B5               G5
It's all about fallin' down and gettin' back up 
D5                   A5
Your good times and hard luck 
B5            G5
True love and amazing grace
D5                      A5
Workin' all week for a back ache
B5              G5
  Raisin' cane, Friday nights, 
D5                A5
Sunday church to set it right
         G5        A5     B5
They can write it on my stone, 
   G5             A5       D5
My life's been a country song

B5 G5 D5 A5

      G5           A5         D5
Oh my life's been a country song
