Dale Dickens Rip chords by Cooper Alan

Key: G

🎸 Verse 1:
G
Katie was a small town homecoming queen
G
Started dating Dale when she was 19
G
Her paw thought awh naw Dale's just dumb
G
But Katie swore her heart and her mind were made up
G
But she started seeing when Dale started drinking
G
He'd start yelling for no damn reason
G

Kiss her then hit her, say something's wrong with her
G
But she'd still make him that finger licking chicken dinner
D
One day she caught Dale rolling in the hay
C
Called up her girls, said here's the thing
C      N.C.
Grab a shovel and double barrel, meet me at the bar
N.C.
And that's how the whole thing started


🎸 Chorus:
N.C.
She went:
C
Hi ho, the whiskey flows
C
I think my ex has got to go
G
Take a little nap in a burlap sack
G
Take a little trip where he don't come back
C
Hey hey, whatcha say
                                  A
I know this sounds all kinds of crazy
             N.C.
But he's got mean and beating, cheating running through him
                                             G
Don't feel bad — that boy has it coming to him


🎸 Verse 2:
G
Well Katie said girls now here's the plan
G
I know none of us ever killed a man
G
Jenny said we can probably fit him in my truck
G
Still got a little blood from when I killed that buck
C
Becky said I got a fresh set of knives
C
In case they might come in handy tonight
G
Brenda said I got a big mop and gloves
G
Reckon little Pine-Sol'll clean him on up
N.C.
We can take him to the lake
N.C.
And make it look just like he drank
N.C.
And ran his boat into a log in the fog and it sank
N.C.
They had their plan so they raised a toast
     G
Said Dale's so dumb no one's ever gonna know


🎸 Chorus:
C
Hi ho, the whiskey flows
C
I think my ex has got to go
G
Take a little nap in a burlap sack
G
Take a little trip where he don't come back
C
Hey hey, whatcha say
                                  A
I know this sounds all kinds of crazy
             N.C.
But he's got mean and beating, cheating running through him
N.C.
Don't feel bad — that boy has it coming to him


Instrumental 🎸 Break:
C    G    C    A
D


🎸 Verse 3:
G
They took care of Dale and disappeared
G
Not a trace, no case — they were outta here
G
And legend has it they're in Mexico
                                           D
And if you get 'em drunk you can hear them go


Out-🎸 Chorus:
C
Hi ho, the whiskey flows
C
My ex is dead, he had to go
G
Take a little nap in a burlap sack
G
Take a little trip and he never came back
C
Hey hey, whatcha say
                                  A
I know this sounds all kinds of crazy
                N.C.
But he had mean and beating, cheating running through him
N.C.
Don't feel bad — that boy had it coming to him
  A     N.C.
I guarantee that no one's gonna miss him
N.C.
Don't feel bad — that boy had it coming to him
