[Intro]
C
They told him to just fade away,
F G C
His time had past, and all his kind were dyin'
[Verse 1]
C F
But he remembers when Hank played the Opry, high as a kite
G C G
While Patsy Cline was out walkin' after midnight
C F
Well he saw the torch being passed from Lefty to Merle
G C G
Now there's so called successors, but it's hard to find a hero in this world
[Chorus]
C F
There ain't no country music for old men
G C G
All of the good ones have died or just packed it in
C F
Now there's posers and losers and would-be outlaws who only know how to
pretend
G C G
But there ain't no country music for old men
[Verse 2]
C F
He was sittin' on a bar stool the first time he heard Jolene
G C G
A song by the prettiest angel he'd ever seen
C F
Back when Nashville was swingin' and makin' them deals
G G C G
While Buck was out strollin' the streets of Bakersfield
[Chorus]
C F
There ain't no country music for old men
G C G
All of the good ones have died or just packed it in
C F
Now there's posers and losers and would-be outlaws who only know how to
pretend
G C
But there ain't no country music for old men
[Verse 3]
F C
Loretta and Conway, Jones and Tammy Wynette
Am
Songs about prisons, passion and whiskey
D G F G C D
That's as good as it's ever gonna get (key change to D)
[Verse 4]
D G
They call him nostalgic with a permanent case of the blues
A D A
He just walks around wonderin' who's gonna fill their shoes
D G
Lookin' back on the great ones we've lost, he says why so soon?
A D A
He shed an ocean of tears on the graves of Johnny and June
[Chorus]
D G
There ain't no country music for old men
A D A
All of the good ones have died or just packed it in
D G
Now there's posers and losers and would-be outlaws who only know how to
pretend
A D
But there ain't no country music for old men
A D
There ain't no country music for old men
