A

A                        E
She don't love me for my money
                                  A
Come friday night half my money's spent
 A                                  E
Every time it rains the roof starts leakin'
                                              A
She don't love me for this shack where we pay rent
D                   E       A      E
Somethin' keeps her holdin' on so strong

[Chorus]
D       A                      D
My Baby loves me because I'm country
        A                             E
And I'm confessin' it's runnin' in my veins
D     D   A                 D
I got the fever I'm a true believer
A            E                 A
She wouldn't have me any other way

[Verse]
A                        E
She don't love me for my cookin'
                                   A
She tells me every time I burn the toast
    A                                   E
It's common knowledge that I'm not good lookin'
                                             A
When it comes to that I missed out more than most
D                   E       A     E
Somethin' keeps her holdin' on so strong

[Chorus]
D       A                      D
My Baby loves me because I'm country
        A                             E
And I'm confessin' it's runnin' thru my veins
D     D   A                 D
I got the fever I'm a true believer
A            E                 A
She wouldn't have me any other way

[Instrumental]
A   D   A  E  A


[Chorus]
D                   E       A     E
Somethin' keeps her holdin' on so strong

So strong    yeah, yeah

D       A                      D
My Baby loves me because I'm country
        A                             E
I think she knows now I'm never gonna change
D     D   A                 D
I got the fever I'm a true believer
A                     E                 A
She says she wouldn't have me any other way, yeah yeah yeah

D       A                          D
My Baby loves me just because I'm country
       A                                E
I know she knows now it's runnin' in my veins
D     D   A                 D
I got the fever I'm a true believer
A                     E                 A
She says she wouldn't have me any other way, yeah yeah
