Note: n.c. means play no chord.
Both verses have only a chord vamp. Listen to the recording for the timing
And for when you add or don't add pinky. (F#)is optional
CHORD VAMP:
G = xx0033 hold the 33 with just your index finger all during this vamp
G+ = xx0035 Use pinky on and off of this 5
IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY Anthony Smith
"Cricket"
Verse 1.) Use the chord vamp to n.c.
Where she grew up there ain't no roads
Out in the sticks where the ginsing grows
She floats down the river to get to school
And her daddy came to get her on an old pack mule
She run back and forth from the shed to shack
n.c.
Checking on the moonshine brewing out back
CHORUS:
G A n.c.
If you don't get the picture by now Then wait a minute
A D D A
She's got a bi-ble, she's born again
A D D A
She's got a shot gun, she ain't afraid of sin
B7 G A D A
She's got a rebel, rousing, rowdy friends saying oh oh oh oh
A D A D
She's got a Trans Am with a trailor hitch
A D A D
She's got hor-ses, cows and Dixie Chicks
B7
Goes honky tonking just for kicks
D D A A B A G (F#) E
If that ain't coun-try I - don't - know - what - is
Verse 2.) use that chord vamp to n.c.
She planted fifty acres with seed in the hole
Come fall you get lost in the tall corn rows
Don't need no phone where she comes from
She just hollars down the mountain and the boys all run - fast
You might see her truck rollin' out of the woods
n.c.
With a twelve point buck laid cross the hood
Chorus, lead, chorus
ENDING:
The chord vamp to fade
I don't know what is I don't know what - I don't know what is
