Whole Step Down Tuning
INTRO: G -- Cadd9 -- Em7 - D - Cadd9
G
Empty beer bottles
Cadd9
Rattle on my pistol
Em7DCadd9
On the seat of my Chevy pick up truck
G
And I'm taking these gravel roads
Cadd9
As fast as my truck will go
Em7DCadd9
I'm running like a scared white tail buck
G
It was an all night card game
Cadd9
With Earl Ray and Bobby
Em7DCadd9
And some ol boy they worked with from Adair
G
That boy didn't like me
Cadd9
Then he said I was cheatin
Em7DCadd9
Gun shots rang out on the midnight air
Cadd9D
I dont wanna see the day light
GCadd9
But my Becky's alone at night
Cadd9DG
I wonder if shes waiting up for me
G
I'm gonna hide out in the bottom
Cadd9
Where I hunted deer and turkey
Em7DCadd9
I know that swamp like the back of my hand
G
Hell I was born and raised here
Cadd9
Just wanted to be a good ol boy
Em7DCadd9
Never thought I'd ever be a wanted man
G
But soon they gonna catch me
Cadd9
Aint no way around that
Em7DCadd9
Cause I dont know any other place to hide
GCadd9
I wonder if Becky's Bible is still in the glove box
Em7DCadd9
Cause I'm sure gonna need it if that boy died
Cadd9D
I dont wanna see the day light
GCadd9
But my Becky's alone at night
Cadd9DG
I wonder if shes waiting up for me
Repeat INTRO
G
Sometime tomorrow morning
Cadd9
When I ought to be fishing
Em7DCadd9
They'll probably be hauling me in
G
I'll be sittin in the jail house
Cadd9
No need to be wishing
Em7DCadd9
I'll ever get to fish the green river again
Cadd9D
I'll be prayin for some daylight
GCadd9
While my Becky's alone at night
Cadd9DG
I wonder if shes waiting up for me
I Wonder if shes waiting up for me
