David Allan Coe - Another Pretty Country Song
Capo 1
DAD
I bought this rhinestone suit in California
GAD
These boots came all the way from Mexico
GA
This Cadillac ain't nothin' son
D
You ought to see the greyhound
EA
I bought to take my band from show to show
DAD
Seen my face a thousand times on TV
GDA
And heard me on your local radio
GADBm
And in your eyes I see the admiration there for me
GAD
But son there's something that ought to know.
AD
Well I've got to take a drink to keep from shakin'
GDA
Motel rooms ain't nothin like a home
GD
Money can't make love grow any stronger
EA
When you leave your woman home alone
GD
She can't raise the children with no daddy
GDA
She can't love a man that's always gone
G
It takes a whole lot more than pride
DABm
To keep your feelings locked inside
DAD
While you sing Another Pretty Country Song.
GAD
I've seen your face a thousand times on TV
GAD
I've heard you on my local radio.
DAD
It's true I took some pills to stay awake son
AD
And this diamond ring I wear is just for show
GAD
I've got a little cabin in the country
EA
When I'm not on the road that's where I go
DAD
Try and put my feelings down on paper
GDA
Right or wrong the show has to go on
GD
I can cry deep down inside and keep on smilin'
DAD
While I sing Another Pretty Country Song
ADD
But I've got to take a drink to keep from shakin'.
