INTRO: G
VERSE 1:
F C G C G
I was sitting on a bar stool in a barbecue joint in Tennessee
F C D D
When this ole boy walked in and he sat right down next to me
Em C F C
I could tell he’d been through some hard Times
Em C F C
There were tearstains on his old shirt
F C
And he said “ya wanna know what ya get – when you play
G
a country song backwards?”
CHORUS 1
G
Ya get your house back, Ya get your dog back,
Ya get your – best friend Jack back,
Ya get your truck back, Ya get your hair back,
Ya get your first and second wives back
C
Your front porch swing, your pretty little thing,
your bling bling bling and a diamond ring,
G
Your get your farm and a barn and the boat and
the Harley First night in jail with Charlie
POST CHORUS:
D
It sounds a little crazy a little scattered and absurd
G CUT G
But that’s what you get when you play a country song backwards
VERSE 2:
C G
Well I never heard it said quite like that – it hit me
in the face ’cause that’s where I’m at
C D
I almost fell flat out on the floor He said “Wait a minute,
that’s not all There’s even more”
CHORUS 2:
G
Ya get your mind back, 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
C
You get your big screen TV, a dvd and a washing machine
G
You get the pond and the lawn, the bail and the mower,
you get to go back where you, don’t know her
POST CHORUS:
D
It sounds a little crazy A little scattered and absurd
(Start a Saite 10 Bund)

VERSE 3:

We sat there and shot the bull about how it would be

CHORUS 1:

Ya get your – best friend Jack back,
Ya get your truck back, Ya get your hair back,
