C

Help me Merle, I’m breakin’ out in a Nashville rash

C G

It’s a-looking like I’m fallin in the cracks

C F

I’m too country now for country, just like Johnny Cash

C G C

Help me Merle, I’m breakin’ out in a Nashville rash

C G C

Shoulda known it when they closed the Opry down

C G

Things are bound to change in that town

C C7 F

You can’t grow when you rip the roots out of the ground

C G C

Looks like that Nashville rash is getting’ ‘round

Chorus

Steel solo

Guitar solo

Ain’t it funny how things can really change

Rock and roll back in the 70’s are country hits today

Breaks my heart to see my heros fadin’ away

The victims of Nashville rash, it’s Nashville’s ways

Chorus 2:

Help me Merle, I’m breakin’ out in a Nashville rash

It’s a-looking like I’m fallin in the cracks

I’m too country now for country, just like Johnny Cash

And Buck Ownes and Faron Young and Johnny Bush

Ad Johnny Paycheck and Charley Pride and Loretta Lynn, Mmmmmmm

Help me Merle, I’m breakin’ out in a Nashville rash

Aw good god it’s gonna be the death of us
