I was (F) sitting on a bar stool
In a (C) barbecue joint in Tenne(G)ssee
When this (F) old boy walked in
And he (C) sat right down next to (D) me (D#dim)
I could (Em) tell he'd been through some hard (C) times
There were (Em) tear stains on his old (Asus4) shirt (A7)
And he (F) said "you wanna know what you get
When you (C) play a country song back(G)wards"
You get your (G) house back
You get your dog back
You get your best friend Jack back
You get your truck back
You get your hair back
You get your first and second wife back (G7)
Your (C) front porch swing
Your pretty little thing
Your bling bling bling and a diamond ring
Your get your (G) farm with a barn and a boat and the Harley
First nite in jail with Charlie
(D) Sounds a little crazy, a little scattered and absurd
(G) That's what you get when you (NC) play a country song backwards
Well (C) I never heard it said quite like that
It (G) hit me in the face cause that's where I'm at
I (C) almost fell flat out on the floor
He said (D) wait a minute that's not all there's even more
You get your (G) mind back
And your nerves back
Your first heart attack back
You get your pride back
You get your life back
You get your first real love back (G7)
You get your (C) big screen tv, dvd and washing machine
You get the (G) phone and the lawn and the bed and the mower
You go back where you don't know her
It (D) sounds a little crazy a little scattered and absurd
But (G) that's what you get
When you (NC) play a country song backwards
Fiddle Solo
Steel Solo
(C) We sat there and shot the bull
About how it would be
If we could (D) turn it all around
And (NC) change this C R A P
You get your (G) house back
You get your dog back
You get your best friend Jack back
You get your truck back
You get your hair back
You get your first and second wife back (G7)
Your (C) front porch swing
Your pretty little thing
Your bling bling bling and a diamond ring
Your get your (G) farm with a barn and a boat and the Harley
First nite in jail with Charlie
You get your (G) mind back
And your nerves back
Your first heart attack back
You get your pride back
You get your life back
You get your first real love back (G7)
You get your (C) big screen tv, dvd and washing machine
You get the (G) phone and the lawn and the bed and the mower
You go back where you don't know her
It (D) sounds a little crazy a little scattered and absurd
But (NC) that's what you get
When you (NC) play a country song backwards
