 C     G     C    G
 C     G      D

[Verse]
     C                 G
Well here lies country music
C               G
Had a damn good run
C                G            
It took its last Nashville lap 
          D
around a Ring of Fire sun
     C               G
Jack Daniel\'s in the front row
      C                G
Right next to steel guitar
    C                  G      
The headline said, the cause of 
              D
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             
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads 
     D
and beer quit getting you drunk
         C               G    
Yeah the thing about all good 
               D        Eb    Em
things is they all come to an end
   C                  G
So here lies country music
     D            G
Rest easy, my old friend

[Post Chorus]
  C     G    C    G

[Verse]
   C            G
It had a couple close calls
     C             G
With names I won\'t mention
    C                     G     
But it stayed strong with Always
       D
 On My Mind and Family Tradition
       C                  
Helped people through some
 G
 hard times
     C                  G
More times than you can count
       C                       
So you hate to see three chords 
 G              D
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             
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads 
     D
and beer quit getting you drunk
         C               G          
Yeah the thing about all good things
         D        Eb    Em
 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        
A new song came on about a honkytonk
       D
 drunk heart that just got broke
    C                   G
And I said, \"thank you, Jesus\"
     C                  G
That dream was all made up
    C             G         
And I pray that I leave this 
              D
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             
Trucks ran out of red dirt roads
     D
 and beer quit getting you drunk
     C                  G    
Yeah I\'ll tell you some crazy 
         D           Eb   Em
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

[Outro]
 C  G    C    G
