D G
Well it really tears me up when I hear a hurtin' song
D A
And I'm someone who likes a good cold beer
D G
Baby's gone and after hurtin' all day long
A D
My heart feels the need to come in here
D G
Cause I need soft lights and hard country music
G D E7 A
Those cheatin' songs assure me that her leaving's real
D G
I need soft lights and hard country music
G D A D
A steel guitar in a dim lit bar knows exactly how I feel
Change key to D# (up ½ step)
Well the tempo's up the lights're low and I'm a gettin' down
With that woman that I met in here last night
She's hurtin' like I am and we don't give a damn
So play that country music and keep it tight
Chorus
A steel guitar in a dimly bar knows exactly how I feel
