              UNCLE JOHN FARQUHAR
              GOODNIGHT, TEXAS

INTRO:
NONE

VERSE:
 A    D        A
Started work when I was ten
     D        A
Like my father did back then
     D           A   D    A  Asus4 A
Driving Pittsburgh steel with hammers under flames

 A   D           A
Fifty years up in that that mill
     D         A
I nearly killed myself and still
     D       A     D Dsus4 D
I ain`t got no dollar bill to my name


INSTRUMENTAL:
A D A D A D A D A D


VERSE:
 A    D          A
Old Bill Hicks from nowhere`s middle
      D        A
Taught me how to play the fiddle
     D        A    D  A Asus4 A
In East Ohio there ain`t too much goin` on

 A   D        A
But we like it that way here
     D       A
Not much changes every year
       D        A
Except the whiskey jug gets lower
      D Dsus4 D
Till it`s gone


CHORUS:
         G
At the same old screen door
     D
That the dog scratched through
         G
And the same old wood floor
    D
Underneath my shoe
         G
And the same old woman
     D      Bm
Making chicken every night
     A       A
Yeah, I guess did alright


INSTRUMENTAL:
D A D A D  A D A D


VERSE:
A   D     A
I was only seventeen
    D         A
Met a girl from Bowling Green
      D    A    D    A Asus4 A
It was the fieriest kind of winter fling

 A    D        A
She got pregnant with my son
     D        A
I didn`t have nowhere to run
   D        A       D  Dsus4 D
So I manned up and we married in the Spring


CHORUS:
         G
At the same old screen door
     D
That the dog scratched through
         G
And the same old wood floor
    D
Underneath my shoe
         G
And the same old woman
     D       Bm
Causin` trouble every night
     A        A
Yeah, I guess I did alright


INSTRUMENTAL:
D A D A D A D A
G D G D
G Bm A A


VERSE:
 A    D        A
Started work when I was ten
     D        A
Like my father did back then
     D           A   D    A  Asus4 A
Driving Pittsburgh steel with hammers under flames

 A    D      A
Now I`m nearly sixty-eight
    D         A
Got a gal that sets me straight
       D       A
And I`ve got supper on my plate
        D        A
And I`ve got grandkids on the way
      D       A
And I owe money to the state
      D       A
Because my taxes all were late
       D        A
But if you think I care then you`re
N.C.     D Dsus4 D
Just makin` noise


CHORUS:
         G
At the same old screen door
     D
That the dog scratched through
         G
And the same old wood floor
    D
Underneath my shoe
         G
And the same old woman
    D         Bm
Leavin` on that old porch light
     A N.C.
Yeah, I guess I did alright
