Chords for Tommy Collins with Country Life - If you ain't lovin' (You ain't livin')

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Have you met all the members of the band here?
Did someone introduce every one of you?
_ Well, I'll be lucky to remember the first names only.
I cannot say Swedish or Finnish names.
I haven't been here long enough to learn your language yet.
I am grateful that you understand some English.
And being from Oklahoma, I don't speak very good English either.
But _ this is Peter [E] over here.
This is Henry.
And [G#] this is Jimmy James from Texas.
And back on the drums is Peter.
This is Ray.
And that's what I call BJ over there because I cannot say his name.
[G] _
_ Can't do it.
_ [N] _ Huh? _
I'll try.
Boy, who are you? _ _
That's good.
I came to entertain, laugh all you want to.
That's good. _
In Sweden, I had a Swedish lady to write something down for me, and I read it.
And that was also funny, so I [A] understand. _ _
But this [G#] Finnish language is entirely different, isn't it, to Swedish?
[D] _ I can even say hello and goodbye in [G] Svenska.
[A] But _ [C#] back in 1953 when I lived in Bakersfield, California, [G] and I was on Capitol Records,
and Buck Owens was playing the lead guitar on [F] my records,
I wrote a song that was recorded by Farron Young on Capitol Records.
And in 1954, [F] it made number one on the charts.
And in 1988, it made number [E] one again by George Strait. _
Recently over in the [G#] States.
I think he has one record out [E] since then.
I'm going to [G#] dedicate this to a man who's taking some pictures there.
His name [E] is Peter Anderson.
He's a bluegrass fan, and I love bluegrass music, too.
And he's going to be taking a couple of pictures here.
But I'd like to do this for you.
Kill me, fellas.
And it goes like this.
If you got [B] a Cadillac, boy, and a [E] 40-room shack, boy,
a [B] bucket full of money and a [E] tree full of honey,
what if you [A] get so hungry, so [E] smoochy, not muggy,
[C#] if you [F#] ain't lovin', if [E] you ain't livin',
if [B] you're riding on a freight train,
instead [E] of walking down Lovers Lane,
[C#] you can't make it, boy,
thought [E] you were going the wrong way, boy,
you [A] got to get a little honey,
[E] it's better than money,
[C#] if you ain't lovin', [E] if you ain't livin',
Take it, Jimmy.

_ _ [E] _ _ If they [B] call you a big man,
thought you [E] got a lot of bottom land,
if [B] you can't shoot the president,
and [E] you help run the government,
what if [A] you didn't know what [E] a man's worth,
you better off on a pension,
[B] if you ain't _ lovin', if [E] you ain't livin',
if you [B] got a bed of lagpoint,
and a [E] 40-room shack, boy,
a [B] bucket full of money and a [E] tree full of honey,
what if you [A] get so hungry, so [E] smoochy, not muggy,
if [B] you ain't lovin', if you [E] ain't livin',
if you [B] ain't [C#] lovin', if you [E] ain't livin', _ _ _

_ Thank you again, you're very nice over here. _ _
