Intro
C# E
[Verse]
F#
Stanley by God Terry knew exactly how it felt
B
To play a George Jones song in a white leather belt
F#
With matching shoes, polyester blues
B
At the Pine Grove Lounge for all you can drink booze
C# E
F# bloody bucket of ol broads and men
C# E
Who had been clean shaven when they started at 10
[Verse]
F#
When Stanley got goin' with mama by his side
B
And daddy on bass singin' Charlie Pride
F#
Kaw-lija, Folsom, Stand By Your Man
B
Just a few you might hear from the band
C# E
Nobody gets it like Tom T. Hall
C# E
Sad spun laughs off a disco ball
[Verse]
F#
They could kinda play but they could really drink
B
Somebody'd finally say exactly what they think
F#
And Pine-Sol, sawdust and last night's beer
B
And a bolo tie on a rear view mirror
C# E
There's a fighter in every dancin' fool
C# E
I watched all as a baby from a black barstool
[Fill]
C# E
[Verse]
F#
Stanley's wife Carol didn't care to hang around
B
She liked her drink, just didn't take it in town
F#
They'd knock down drag out every weekend
B
By Sunday somebody's face was on the mend
C# E
And passed out cold on the concrete porch
C# E
Love sure is a bitch when your liver is scorched
[Verse]
F#
South end of the county had a whole nother bar
B
Where the band would play since it wasn't very far
F#
There were more strange women, even more smoke
B
In a field by a legendary live oak
C# E
Carol came in hot on Hennessy
C# E
Left and wrapped her car round that live oak tree
[Fill]
C# E
[Verse]
F#
I remember in the morning mama dropping the phone
B
I remember hushed words and hearing daddy groan
F#
They had a pretty daughter, shy little Sherry
B
We went and picked her up from the school library
C# E
She was 16 and could sing so sweet
C# E
And on a really good night she'd babysit me
[Verse]
F#
After all that it gets kinda cloudy
B
But 2 years later she was Miss Sumter County
F#
As small town, trashy, tragic goes
B
She feathered her hair and sang The Rose
C# E
The whole Cow Palace knew just how she felt
C# E
And Stanley By God Terry wore a white leather belt
[Repeat]
C# E
And country music and hillbilly pain
C# E
Make stories that'll hurt ya, and hold ya like a chain
[Outro]
C# G
