Back When Country Was Ugly

• G

Intro: 
(G) (D7) (G) 
 
I liked (G) country better (D7) back when it was (G) ugly 
Girls never threw panties at (D7) David Allen (G) Coe (G7) 
Women (C) never said Willie had a (G) cute butt 
(C) Waylon didn't have to hide a (G) beer gut 
And (C) record execs told Johnny Paycheck 
To (A) shove his vide(D7)o  
 
I liked (G) country better (D7) back when it was dog-(G)-ugly 
Nobody ever called Hank (D7) Jr. a pretty (G) thang (G7) 
Back when (C) Neal McCoy was still (G) wettin' the bed 
And (C) Conway Twitty had a (G) helmet head 
And the (C) best lookin' man in Nashville 
Was a (A) fellow named K.D. (D7) Lang 
 
I liked (G) country better (D7) back when it was (G) ugly 
Back when Lyle Lovett was con(D7)sidered a handsome (G) man (G7) 
Back when (C) all the great stars all (G) dressed like hell 
(C) Rhinestones runnin' on a (G) Duracel 
(C) Back when Tanya Tucker was a (A) big Glen Campell (D7) fan 
 
I liked (G) country better (D7) back when it was highly (G) unattractive 
Talkin' back in the George (D7) Jones, flat-top (G) days 
When no(C)body could compete with Dolly (G) Parton's wig 
(C) And her boobs weren't (G) this damned big 
And the (C) boys in the band all looked like  
They've been (A) hit with the ugly (D7) bus 
I liked (G) country better (D7) back when it looked like (G) us (C) 
I liked (G) country better (No Chord) back when it looked like (G) me 
 
Spoken: "and that is butt-ugly"
