Kelsea Ballerini - a country song: chords

E              G#7                           C#m7
When I need to put my feet back on the ground
   A                 E
I go back to my hometown
       G#7                    C#m7
When I need a night to act my age
            A                      E
Me and my friends stay out too late
           G#7                     C#m7
And when I need to feel good in my skin
       A                      E
I drop everything and run to him
              G#7                       C#m7
When nothin' makes sense, but I need to talk
                       A
That's when I call my mom

Chorus:
                     E          G#7
But I wanna write a country song
              C#m7          A
When nothin's gentle on my mind
                 E              G#7
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
        C#m7           A
And I'm almost out of wine
     E                G#7
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
 C#m7                  A
Whether it's right or wrong
              F#m7                     G#m
I stay up all night, done it my whole life
                      A  Am
Sometimes you gotta write a country song

Got me through the drama with my ex
The first time that I had sex
The day the word "divorce" got really real
My first year in Nashville
Maybe it's 'cause of my raisin' or what my parents were playin'
Or when I feel my heart breakin', no hesitation

Chorus:
I go and write a country song
When nothin's gentle on my mind
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
And I'm almost out of wine
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
Whether it's right or wrong
I stay up all night, done it my whole life
Sometimes, you've gotta write a country song

E            G#7                            C#m7
'Bout love, 'bout lies, 'bout my baby's truck
             A
Real life, that's the stuff, yeah
E            G#7                      C#m7
First kiss, last call, bad breakin' ups
           A
My life, that's what

Chorus:
Makes me write a country song
When nothin's gentle on my mind
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
And now I'm out of wine
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
Whether it's right or wrong
Gets me every time, story of my life
There ain't nothin' like a country song

('Bout love, 'bout lies, 'bout my baby's truck)
Yeah (Real life, that's the stuff, yeah)
A country song (First kiss, last car, bad breakin' ups)
(My life, that's what) Hey
