Songs About Me - Trace Adkins
This sounds best playing the chorus with power or barre chords.
G G/E
I met a guy on the red eye
G/Bb F
He spotted my guitar and said what do you do?
G G/E
I said, I sing for a living,
G/Bb F
Country music mixed with a little rock and a little blues
G G/E
He said I'm sorry but I've never been crazy
G/Bb F
'bout that twang and trains and hillbilly thing
G G/E
What ever made you want to sing stuff like that?
G/Bb F
I just looked at him and laughed and said
Chorus:
G F C
Cause it's songs about me
G F C
And who I am
G F
Songs about loving and living
C G F C
And good hearted women and family and God
G F C
Yeah they're all just songs about me
G F C D (1st & 3rd chorus)
Songs about me
G G/E
So I offered him tickets
G/Bb F
I said you'll see what I mean if you show up tonight
G G/E
He said I doubt you'll change my opinion
G/Bb F
I'll be kind of busy, but hey man, I'll try
G G/E
Then later on when we finished our songs
G/Bb F
About scars and cars and broken hearts, I saw him
G G/E
He was standing there right next to the stage, and he shouted
G/Bb F
Man you were right it was like you sang those
CHORUS
Bb
So I'll just keep on singing
D
'til I hear the whole world singing "those are....
