Daryle Singletary That's Why I Sing This Way  
Capo on 2nd

A 	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	        E
My momma used to tell me son you better get your work done you’re daddy’s comin home at five 
 	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	   A
And if you ain’t all through with the chores you gotta do, boy I’m gonna skin you alive
   	     D               
I was glued to the radio listening to my hero’s sing them sad old songs
  	  	  	      A 	  	 E                           A
Just a singin ‘em sadder than one car funeral nobody sings like Jones                             

Chorus:
                    D  	  	                                        A 	  	  	  	     
I’d take that old kitchen broom up to my room and play it like an old guitar
     B 	  	  	  	    	        E
Or sit out on the porch trying to sing like George dream about becoming a star 
A     	  	  	  	  	  	  	           D
Yeah the things I never did when I was just a kid made me what I am today
                       A 	  	             E                                   A
You see momma used to whip me with a George Jones album that’s why I sing, this way. 

 A 	  	  	  	  	  	  	         E
So I ended up in Nashville working at a sawmill just to be close to stars 
 	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	     A
But I got a little broke but I couldn’t ask my folks so I had to hock my old guitar
      	  	             D
Well I still hang around Tooties Orchid Lounge thinkin he’ll walk through that door
           A                          E 	  	                  A
But a voice in my mind said your wastin’ time see George don’t drink no more.

2nd Chorus:
D  	  	                                                           A 	  	  	  	     
I still take that old kitchen broom, up to my room and play it like an old guitar
     B 	  	  	  	    	                E
Or sit out on the porch trying to sing like George, and dream about becoming a star 
A     	  	  	  	  	  	  	           D
Yeah the things I never did when I was just a kid made me what I am today.
                       A 	  	            E                                    A
You see momma used to whip me with a George Jones album that’s why I sing, this way

D 	  	  	 A 	  	          E                                                     A
Yeah my momma used to whip me with a George Jones album that’s why I sing, this way.

We can live with it, man. It's a great song--long live traditional
country!--and a great tab.
