What This Country Needs Chords

(ver. 1)
Aaron Tippin
 Title: What this country needs 
  
   ---(capo 2nd fret)--- 
  
 (verse 1) 
 E                                 
 If I was a running this country,   
       A                   E  
 I'd start it over from scratch, 
 E                                     
 Keep what's good pile up what's bad,   
      B   
 And then I'd strike the match, 
      E                         
 Yeah we go back to the basics,  
     A  
 Of how things ought to be, 
        E                            
 Yeah there'd be a line of changes,   
    B                 E   
 If it was left up to me, 
  
  
 (chorus) 
 E                               
 Cause what this country needs,   
        A                 E  
 Is a little more steel guitar, 
  E  
 And put a little fiddle right in the middle, 
          F#             B  
 Straight out of a Texas bar, 
           E                                  
 And give us a song we can all sing along,     
                    A 
 From sea to shining sea, 
  
 Yeah be proud of it and always love it, 
          B                 E   
 That's what this country needs, 
  
  
 (verse 2) 
 E                                     
 Now if you want to hear about living  
        A               E  
 Just twist that radio dial 
      E                              B  
 You come to a singer singing what life's all about  
 E  
 But you can't deny that people still cry 
        A 
 They laugh and they smile and they hurt 
 E                               
 That's my humble opinion y'all  
          B                      E  
 you can take it for what it's worth 
  
  
  
 (chorus) 
 E                               
 Cause what this country needs,   
        A                 E  
 Is a little more steel guitar, 
  E  
 And put a little fiddle right in the middle, 
          F#             B  
 Straight out of a Texas bar, 
           E                                  
 And give us a song we can all sing along,     
                    A 
 From sea to shining sea, 
  
 Yeah be proud of it and always love it, 
          B                 E   
 That's what this country needs, 
  
  
 (bridge) 
        A                                 
 Yeah turn it on up and let it ring out   
    E  
 Across the land of the free 
       F# 
 They ought to build a statue to Hank Williams Sr, 
       B  
 And watch it change the scenery, 
  
  
  
 (chorus) 
 E                               
 Cause what this country needs,   
        A                 E  
 Is a little more steel guitar 
     E  
 Yea put a sawing fiddle right square in the middle, 
          F#             B  
 Straight out of a Texas bar, 
        E                                       
 And y'all give us a song that we all can sing,  
               A 
 From sea to shining sea, 
      E  
 Yeah be proud of it and always love it, 
          B                 E   
 That's what this country needs,
