Aaron Tippin - What This Country Needs Ukulele

CAPO: 4th Fret


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