Why I Love Country Music

Lloyd Cole


Tom: G

D              Em
Jane is fine always fine
G             D               Em  G
we're unhappy most of the time
D              Em
we don't talk we don't fight
G               D              Em     G
I'm just tired she's way past caring
F#m,
but she says
G
 she is fine
Bm               Em         A   G
she tells lies most of the time

D                Em
What she needs I don't have
G                 D             Em      G
that's not in the hand that I'm holding
D             Em
so we drink spanish wine
G                  D                Em      G
she plays country records until the morning

F#m
this is mine
G
all of mine
Bm           Em        A   G
she is not she is not mine
           F#m    G
and I feel fine only when
      C
I'm sleeping
Bm                 C
only with the t.v. on
Bm                  D                A
she and I and empty wine and whisky bottles
     C  Bm                       C
and she write beneath crumpled sheets
  Bm                  D
she is everything I need
                A
but she would rather be
 C             G
any place but here

D             Em
Jane is fine always fine
G              D         Em    G
we're unhappy most of the time
D              Em
we don't talk we don't fight
G                D             Em     G
I'm just tired she's way past caring
A             G
so we drink spanish wine
A        G
we tell lies
               A   G
we're killing time
             A   G
and we feel fine
                        D  Em  G
well what's the crime?
