What This Country Needs Aaron Tippin
If [D]I was a running this country
I'd [G]start it over from [D]scratch
[D]Keep what's good, pile up what's bad
And [A]then I'd strike the match
Yeah, [D]we go back to the basics
Of [G]how things ought to be
Yeah, [D]there'd be a line of changes
If [A]it was left up to [D]me
CHORUS:
[D]Cause what this country needs
Is a li[G]ttle more steel gu[D]itar
A[D]nd put a little fiddle right in the middle
Straight [E]out of a Texas[A] bar
And give u[D]s a song we can all sing along
From sea to shining[G] sea
Yeah be proud of it and always love it
That's wh[A]at this country ne[D]eds
[D]Now if you want to hear about living
Just tw[G]ist that radio d[D]ial
You c[D]ome to a singer singing what li[A]fe's all about
[D]But you can't deny that people still cry
They la[G]ugh and they smile and they hurt
[D]That's my humble opinion y'all
you can t[A]ake it for what it's wo[D]rth
CHORUS:
[D]Cause what this country needs
Is a li[G]ttle more steel gu[D]itar
A[D]nd put a little fiddle right in the middle
Straight [E]out of a Texas[A] bar
And give u[D]s a song we can all sing along
From sea to shining[G] sea
Yeah be proud of it and always love it
That's wh[A]at this country ne[D]eds
BRIDGE:
Yeah tu[G]rn it on up and let it ring out
Acr[D]oss the land of the free
They o[E]ught to build a statue to Hank Williams Senior
And wa[A]tch it change the scenery
CHORUS:
[D]Cause what this country needs
Is a [G]little more steel [D]guitar
Yea [D]put a sawing fiddle right square in the middle
Straight [E]out of a Texas[A] bar
And y'a[D]ll give us a song that we all can sing
From sea to sh[G]ining sea
Yeah [D]be proud of it and always love it
That's wh[A]at this country ne[D]eds
