Musically, country tunes are built a lot of times on four
chords, whereas basic blues songs use three. Often times in blues
and country, you are dealing personality and physical
characteristics of a female, or male. Then it depends on how the
song goes. The blues complains more than country, and country tries
to bring you emotionally into a situation of forgiveness, but the
same can be true for either. What do you get if you play a country
record backwards? You get back your dog, your wife, and you stop
drinking.
