Country Song Chords & Lyrics - Bo Burnham

[INTRO]
[D]Wh-
er[A]e -
in[G]st-
ea[A]d of people actually telling their stories,
you got a bunch of millionaire metrosexuals that have never done a hard day's work in their lives.
But they figured out the words and the phrases that they can use to pander to their audience.
And they list the same words and phrases off, sort of mad-lib style,
raking in millions of dollars from actual working-class people.
You know the words, you know know the phrases, phrases like:

[VERSE 1]
[D]A dirt road
[A]A cold beer
[G]A blue jeans
[A]A red pickup
[D]A rural noun,[A] simple adjectiv[G]e [A]

[D]No shoes
[A]No shirt
[G]No Jews
[A]You didn't hear that [D]
Sort of a mental typo [A] [G]

[PRE-CHORUS]

[Bm]I walk and talk like a [A]field hand
[G]But the boots I'm wearing cost three grand
[Bm]I write songs about riding [G]tractors
From the [A]comfort of a private [D]jet

[CHORUS]
[D]I can sing in Mandarin
[A]And still know I'm pandering
[Bm]Hunting deer and chasing trout
[G]A Bud Light with the [A]logo facing [D]out

[D]Hear that subtle mandolin
[A]That's textbook panderin'
[Bm]I own a private ranch that I rarely [G]use
[A] I don't like dirt

[Spoken]
[D] One verse, [A]one chorus in the bag
[G] Now it's time to talk to the ladies
[D] I'm hoping my Southern [A]charm offsets all these rape-y [G]vibes I'm puttin' out [A]

[VERSE 2]
[D]Good girl
[A]In a straw hat
[G]With her arms out [A]in a corn field
[D] That is a sca[A]recrow
[G]Thought that was a human woman[A] , sorry

[D]A cold night
[A]A cold beer
[G]A cold jeans
[A]Strike that last one

[D]I'm wanting you
[A]I hope you're feeling me[G]

Subtextually

[PRE-CHORUS]
[Bm]We go to bed, [A]you doze off
[G] So I take your country girl clothes off
[Bm] I put my hands on your body
It f[G]eels like hay, it's a f[A]ucking scarecrow again

[CHORUS]
[D] Like Mike's Evander-ing
[A] Fuck your ears, I'm pandering
[Bm]I write songs for the people who do
[G]Jobs in the towns that I'd [A]never move to

[D]Legalize gerrymandering
[A]Tolerate my pandering
[Bm]You got a beautiful mouth
I got a beautiful ([G]dick)

N.C
Y'all dumb motherfuckers want a key change?

[E]Thematically meandering
[B]Emphatically pandering
[C#m]I got a tight grip on my demo's balls
[A]Say the word "truck," they [B]jizz in their overalls

[E] You don't know what land you're in
[B] I'm in the land of pandering
[C#m] And I'll be upfront
I [A]do what I do 'cause I'm a [B]total fuckin' [E]cuuunt..ry boooy
