Country Heroes
by Hank Williams III
(taken from 2004 live recording)

               
Well, oh what a (Am)feelin' that burns down (C)low.
When ya ain't got (D)no where to turn or no where to (Am)go.
It makes me feel like (Am)sometimes i'm outta (C)control.
So I'm gonna get (D)wasted with all my country (Am)heroes.

I'm drinkin' some (Am)George Jones and a little bit of (C)Coe.
Haggard's easin' my (D)misery and Waylon's keepin' me from (Am)home.
Hank's givin' me those (Am)high times. Cash is gonna sing it (C)low.
An' i'm here gettin' (D)wasted here just like my country (Am)heroes.

(solo break) - play thru one verse

I'm drinkin' that (Am)whiskey out of that (C)glass.
And if that ain't (D)country, boy, you can kiss my (Am)ass.
I wanna hear them (Am)old songs, nothin' of the (C)new.
'Cause this might be the (D)last time I'm gonna see (Am)you.

I'm drinkin' some (Am)George Jones and a little bit of (C)Coe.
Haggard's easin' my (D)misery and Waylon's keepin' me from (Am)home.
Hank's givin' me those (Am)high times. Cash is gonna sing it (C)low.
An' i'm here gettin' (D)wasted just like my country (Am)heroes.

I'm here gettin' (D)wasted, with all my country (Am)heroes.

thanks for the cool words.
the one i've uploaded here is from little rock, AK 1-14-04.
thanks to the taper whoever you are!
he flubs the lyrics sometimes in other versions, but this is pretty much the average of how he performs it.
enjoy ya'll!

In the live version I have he says "And Waylon's givin me some blow"--so that makes sense about flubbing the lyrics or maybe it was an original thought for the song later removed.......
