Gone Fishin by Mackenzie Carpenter: Guitar, Bass & Songwriting Insights

I'm sorry, but there seems to be a mix-up. "Gone Fishin'" is a classic song by Louis Armstrong and Bing Crosby, not Mackenzie Carpenter. It was released in 1951 and features a laid-back jazz feel with Crosby's smooth vocals and Armstrong's signature trumpet playing. The song's lyrics humorously depict the joys of taking a break from work to relax and go fishing.

Intro:
F#m B Bm B


Verse:
     B
He'd been on the lake more times this month, then all last year combined
  B
I didn't think much of it 'til he stayed out there all night
   E
So I drove out to Percy Priest, found him kissin' some blonde in his backseat
      B
Had an epiphany, told myself that I
F#                         F     E
had to teach that good ol' boy a lesson, when the sun got settin'

Chorus:
          B
He's gone fishin' out in the dark, wasn't hard to fit him in the trunk of my car
    E
Had to scrub down the dock and his tackle box, used a whole damn gallon of Clorox

          B
He's gone fishin', I'm at the bar, perfect alibi, drinkin' PBR
   E
Nobody even knows he's missin'
                      A     E     B
Bet he's wishin' he'd never gone fishin'


Verse:
B
I'll give it a couple days, and then I'll call the cops
B
Say that I ain't seen him since he walked out with a Zebco rod
E
Try to cry a tear or two when I'm interviewed on the local news
         B
Join the search crew, beg 'em not to call it off
   F#                       B          E
Do everything a heart-broke wife would do except tell the truth


Chorus:
          B
He's gone fishin' out in the dark, wasn't hard to fit him in the trunk of my car
       E
Had to scrub down the dock and his tackle box, used a whole damn gallon of Clorox
          B
He's gone fishin', I'm at the bar, perfect alibi, drinkin' PBR
  E
Nobody even knows he's missin'
                      A     E    B
Bet he's wishin' he'd never gone fishin' (I bet you do, baby)

E


Bridge:
A   E   Bm                B
Mm, mm, it's a real small town
Bm            B
I'm sure I'll see that blonde around
           F#                         B
I wouldn't be surprised if out of the blue
   E
It turns out she's gone fishin' too


Chorus:
A         B                            N.C.
He's gone fishin' out in the dark, wasn't hard to fit him in the trunk of my car
       E
Had to scrub down the dock and his tackle box, used a whole damn gallon of Clorox
          B
He's gone fishin', I'm at the bar, perfect alibi, drinkin' PBR
  E
Nobody even knows he's missin'
                      A     E    B
Bet he's wishin' he'd never gone fishin'
B
I bet he's wishin'
B
Wishin' he'd never gone fishin'
B
I bet he's wishin'
             A     E    B
Wishin' he'd never gone fishin'
B
Wishin' he'd never gone fishin', mm-hm
