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.
