Longhaired Redneck

G

[Verse 1]
C           D                 G
Country DJs knows that I'm an outlaw
       G                            C
They'd never come to see me in this dive
      C                               G        D/F#   Em
Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughing at the hippies
        Am                               D
Who are praying they'll get out of here alive

[Verse 2]
    C                 D                 G
The loud mouth in the corner's getting to me
G                                C
Talking about my earrings and my hair
C                                    G        D/F#    Em
I guess he ain't read the signs that say I've been to prison
Am                                 D
Someone ought to warn him before I knock him off his chair

[Verse 3]
         C                    D           G
Cause my long hair just can't cover up my redneck
G                              C
I've won every fight I've ever fought
     C                                G       D/F#    Em
Hey, I don't need some turkey telling me that I ain't country
    Am                                 D
And sayin' I ain't worth the damned old ticket that he bought

[Chorus]
            G                         C
Cause I can sing all them songs about Texas
D                                        G    D
  And I still do all the sad ones that I know
     G                          C
They tell me, I look like Merle Haggard
    Am                           D
And sound a lot like David Allan Coe

[Verse 4]
        C                 D              G
And the barmaid in the last town that we played in
G                                C
Knew the words to every song I'd wrote
C                                G     D/F#    Em
She said Jimmy Rabbit turned her on to my last album
Am                              D
Just about the time the jukebox broke

[Verse 5]
      C                  D             G
Yeah, Johnny Cash helped me get out of prison
G                                C
Long before Rodriguez stole that goat
     C                                 G      D/F#    Em
I've been the Rhinestone Cowboy for so long I can't remember
    Am                           D
And I can do you every song Hank Williams ever wrote

[Chorus]
          G                         C
And I can sing all them songs about Texas
D                                        G    D
  And I still do all the sad ones that I know
        G                          C
I can't help it, I look like Merle Haggard
      Am                           D
And I sound a lot like David Allan Coe

[Verse 6]
        C           D                G
But the country DJs all think I'm an outlaw
           G                            C
And they'd never come to see me in this dive
      C                               G        D/F#   Em
Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughing at the hippies
        Am                               D
Who are praying they'll get out of here alive

[Otro]
    C                 D                 G
The loud mouth in the corner's getting to me
G                                C
Talking about my earrings and my hair
