Am Country Heaven Chords

AM Country Heaven
By: Jason Eady
 
 
Capo 2
 
 
          C
Well they sing about Jesus, they sing about Jones
         F                C
And they sing of American pride 
            C
But they're all to damn clean, polished like stones
         D7                          G
And they wont sing about cheatin and lies
 
         C
Well i remember the days when the singers just sang
            F                       C
And left it all in the stories they tell
F                      C
These days we're in AM country heaven
    G          C
And FM country hell
 
          C
I miss the days when the women were ugly
        F                        C
And the men were all forty years old
          C
Cause you had to say something for people to listen
         D7                   G
Now they just do what they're told
 
          C
Well it's all about idols and pretty blonde hair
        F                   C
And how many trucks you can sell
F              C
Out here in AM country heaven
    G          C
And FM country hell
 
 
Chorus:
 
     F                           C
Well out on these back roads the only real truth that I know
G                     C
Don't cross the radio band
   F                           C
It cuts thru the static like a chill in the air
        D                          G
Well it fades out then comes back again
            C
Well i dont mean to sound jaded because I know there are plenty 
      F                        C
Young singers who arent up for sale
            F               C
But they're all stuck in AM country heaven
    G          C
And FM country hell
 
 
 
Key change to D
 
       D
Well i knew it was over the day that i overheard
  G                 D
A record execuctive cry
D
"Keep it all simple, dont get offensive 
         E7                          A
And dont play songs in three quarter time." 
            D
Well mister record man I hope you dont take offense
             G                    D
But you're a hell of a joke i can tell
           G                  D
You're the reason we're in AM country heaven
    A          D
And FM country hell 
 
 
Chorus:
 
     F                           C
Well out on these back roads the only real truth that I know
G                   C
Don't cross the radio band
   F                           C
It cuts thru the static like a chill in the air
        D                          G
Well it fades out then comes back again
            C
Well i dont mean to sound jaded because I know there are plenty 
      F                        C
Young singers who arent up for sale
            F               C
But they're all stuck in AM country heaven
    G          C
And FM country hell
             F               C
Yeah they're all stuck in AM country heaven
    G          C
and FM country hell
