Album:  What This Country Needs

Written by:





          WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS   Arron Tippin

F#                                     B                   F#

If I was a-running this country  I'd start it over from scratch

F#                                        C# 

Keep what's good pile up what's bad  And then I'd strike the match

     F#                           B 

Yeah we go back to the basics Of how things ought to be

       F#                             C#                F# 

Yeah there'd be a line of changes  If it was left up to me





CHORUS:

F#                                    B                 F#

Cause what this country needs  Is a little more steel guitar

    F#

1.2.)And put a little fiddle right in the middle

3.)Yea put a sawing fiddle right square in the middle

         G#             C#

Straight out of a Texas bar

          F#                                                   B

1.2.)and give us a song we can all sing along    from sea to shining sea

3.)And y'all give us a song that we all can sing from sea to shining sea

     F#

Yeah be proud of it and always love it

         C#                F# 

That's what this country needs



F#                                          B               F#

Now if you want to hear about living Just twist that radio dial

     F#                             C#

You come to a singer singing what life's all about 

F#

But you can't deny that people still cry

       B

They laugh and they smile and they hurt

F#                                      C#                     F#

That's my humble opinion y'all you can take it for what it's worth



       B                                    F#

Yeah turn it on up and let it ring out  A-cross the land of the free

      G#

They ought to build a statue to Hank Williams Senior

      C#

And watch it ??change the scene??



Repeat chorus
