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