D A When I was a kid on Saturday night's F#m G Always listened to music in the moonlight Talkin' to Daddy about the things of life He'd tell me his dreams and I'd tell him mine The radio we had didn't look to good But those songs they sounded just like they should Conway Twitty and Johnny Cash Singin' every song like it was their last F#m G And I think we lost somethin' along the way A 'Cause the music today don't sound G A like what they played Chorus: D F#m 'Cause the fiddle's gone and the steel G D guitar is fadin' out with time D I wanna hear a song that makes me believe A a country boy can still survive Bm G I wanna play my guitar and ol' Waylon smilin' D G from somewhere up above D A G Whatever happened to the music we all loved? Bm A D Yeah whatever happened to the music we all loved? Well it seems to me we've made a change But it's a mystery to me How we can sacrifice our music Just to sell a damn CD I don't wanna hear music out to please The big time business man I wanna sing to the folks with dirt on their boots And blisters on their hands But we're stuck with this new sound they call country And how we got here friend, well it's beyond me Chorus: 'Cause the fiddle's gone and the steel guitar is fadin' out with time I wanna hear a song that makes me believe a country boy can still survive I wanna play my guitar and ol' Waylon smilin' from somewhere up above Yeah whatever happened to the music we all loved? Yeah whatever happened to the music we all loved? I'm just one man with my guitar You might say I'm out of my mind All I'm sayin' is the stuff they're playin' Well it just don't walk the line If we could all hold on just a little bit tighter to our history This crap they're playin' well it just might sound like country Chorus: 'Cause the fiddle's gone and the steel guitar is fadin' out with time I wanna hear a song that makes me believe a country boy can still survive I wanna play my guitar and know Hank is smilin' from somewhere up above Yeah whatever happened to the music we all loved? Yeah God bless all the music that we still love You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  Bm  D  F#m  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
