Subject: IF IT WEREN'T FOR COUNTRY MUSIC I'D GO CRAZY


IF IT WEREN'T FOR COUNTRY MUSIC I'D GO CRAZY
Recorded by Clinton Gregory
Words and music by Alan Syms

CAPO on 2nd FRET/KEY: E/PLAY: D
I [D] sit here by the Jukebox in this country bar
I gotta hear some fiddle and some [A7] steel guitar
A month ago my lovin' lady threw me out
And I don't know what to do, so I [D] do without;

This old city brings me down, it ain't been good to me
But it's all that I can [D7] do to keep my [G] sanity
But the [A7] future's lookin' bright, 'cause I'm finally feelin' right
And If It Weren't For Country Music I'd Go [D] Crazy.

I got [G] holes in my boots, I got [D] holes in my jeans
[A7] Holes in my pockets, man you [D] know what that means
Between the [G] bar tab and the jukebox, my [D] money's all been spent
I'd even [E] vote for Merle Haggard for [A7] president;

Play some [D] HANK, Play some WILLIE, Play some RESTLESS HEART
But don't play "A TENDER [D7] LIE" 'cause I might [G] fall apart
But the [A7] future's lookin' bright, 'cause I'm finally feelin' right
And If It Weren't For Country Music I'd Go [D] Crazy.

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

Repeat 3rd and 4th Verses

But the [A7] future's lookin' bright, 'cause I'm finally feelin' right
And If It Weren't For Country Music I'd Go [D] Crazy.
