Chords with lyrics
D MajorD G+G
I wanna tell you a story about a trip I took a little while ago
D MajorD A7A7
Across that Mackinaw Bridge right past the Sault (Soo)
D MajorD G+G
There’s nothing ‘round but logging trucks and pasty shops
E7E7 A7A7
17,000 tourists takin’ snapshots of the view from Route 2
D MajorD G+G
Oh my Lord, I was getting’ kind of thirsty
D MajorD A7A7
And they say in Marquett the Sunset beer tastes fine
D MajorD G+G
So I shut her down outside the Lumberjack Tavern
E7E7
Walked in through the screen door
A7A7
Nearly blew my down state mind
D MajorD G+G
Oh my Lord, she was over by the jukebox
D MajorD A7A7
Shuckin’ and a-chuckin’ and a-jivin’ to beat the band
D MajorD G+G
Well, I put two beers on the table close enough to touch her
E7E7
She’d plate another quarter and pick four more tunes
A7A7
Then walked right over and took my hand
D MajorD G+G
And said, Hey, Let’s do the Big Bay Shuffle
D MajorD A7A7
Get your feet and fingers movin’ right
D MajorD G+G
Said, Hey, let’s do the Big Bay Shuffle
A7A7 D MajorD
We’ll be Big Bay Shufflin’ all night
D MajorD
She shuffled to the left, shuffled to the right
G+G
Then she shook her hands
D MajorD A7A7
Said, Boy, now I’ll show you what that jukebox can do
D MajorD
So I moved to my left, moved to my right
G+G
Then I waved my hands
E7E7
Inside a minute I was so damn good
A7A7
I could shuffle all the way to Kalamazoo
D MajorD G+G
Said, Hey, let’s do the Big Bay Shuffle
D MajorD A7A7
Get your feet and fingers movin’ right
D MajorD G+G
Said, Hey, let’s do the Big Bay Shuffle
A7A7 D MajorD
You’ll be Big Bay Shufflin’ all night
Instrumental:
D MajorD G+G
After fifteen minutes that bar was filled with residents
D MajorD A7A7
‘Bout 4am, no one was tired yet
D MajorD G+G
Big Bay was alive, a-kickin’ and a-grinnin’
E7E7
Just in there boogeyin’ to Engelbert Humperdinck and
A7A7
Conway Twitty and Tammy Wynett
D MajorD G+G
Said, Hey, let’s do the Big Bay Shuffle
D MajorD A7A7
Get your feet and fingers movin’ right
D MajorD G+G
Said, Hey, let’s do the Big Bay Shuffle
A7A7 D MajorD
You’ll be Big Bay Shufflin’ all night
