Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard EBGDAE Difficulty: Novice Em Am D Dm Em I caught a string full of fish down by the damn Em Am F#m B7 I'll drag them back to the field they should be dead by then Em Am D Dm Em Wipe the sweat off my neck and tally ho the plow G B7 C I'm gonna grow a woman from the ground Em Am D Dm The night was a chalkboard with a fingernail moon Em Am F#m B7 If the fish ain't dead yet they will be pretty soon Em Am D Dm Em Kinda like the feeling at an old folks home G B7 C Even though you love them you can't wait for them to go
