My momma used to tell me son you better get your work done
E
You?re daddy?s comin home at five
E
And if you ain?t all through
E
With the chores you gotta do
A
Boy I?m gonna tan you alive
A
I was glued to the radio listening to
D
My hero?s sing them sad old songs
A
Singin ?em sadder than one car funeral
E A
Nobody sings like Jones
D
I?d take that old kitchen broom up to my room
A
and play it like an old guitar
B
Or sit out on the porch trying to sing
E
like George dream about becoming a star
A
Well the things I never did when I was
D
just a kid made me what I am today
A
You see momma used to whip me with a George Jones album
E A
that?s why I sing, this way.

verse 2
A
So I ended up in Nashville working at a sawmill
E
just to be close to stars
But I got a little broke but I couldn?t ask my folks
A
so I had to hock my old guitar
Well I still hang around Tooties Orchid Lounge
D
thinkin he?ll walk through that door
A
But a voice in my mind said your wastin? time
E A
Cause George don?t drink no more.
