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