[Am] [Em] Now the [F] crow crow [G] thing he said
Now you're sorry
You're lonesome [D] and scared
[G] And you say you'd be happy
[C] If you could just come [G] back home
But here's a quarter
To cause [D]
someone [Gm] to care
And [C]
cause someone who will listen
[G] That might give a damn
Maybe one of them
You'll sort [D] out a fare
But [G] don't you come around here
And dare to [C] me
Nothin' [G] of your life
And here's a quarter
[D] To cause someone [Gm] to care
[D] My daddy served in the army
[A] Where he lost his right eye
And he flew [E] a flag out in our yard
Till [Gb] the day that he died
He [G] wanted my mother, my brother
[D] My sister and me
To grow [A] up and live happy
In the land of the free
[G] Now this nation that I [D] love
Is [A] fallin' under attack
A [E] mighty sucker punch came flyin' in
[Gb] From somewhere in the back
[G] Soon as we could see clearly
[D] Through our big black eye
[A] Man we lit up your world
Like the Fourth of July
[E] Down in the country
Past the sea limit sign
There's a honky tonk
There's a counter flyin'
[A] A joint starts jumpin' every night
When the sun [E] goes down
They [B] got no whiskey, whippin'
Music and smoke
That's where all the cowgirls go
On the [Em] boot [E] scootin' boogie
[D] Well a long time forgot in our dreams
It's fell by [G] the way
And [A] the good life promise
Ain't what [E] she's [D] livin' today Willie
She never complains about the bad times
Or the [G] bad things he's done
She [A] just talks about the good times he's had
And all the good [G] [D] times to come
[E] I [B] keep a close watch on this [E] heart of mine
[B] I keep my eyes wide open all the [E] time
I keep [A] the ends out for the [G] tie [E] that binds
[B] Because you're mine
I [E] walk the line
Well there's a little girl
In our neighborhood
Her name is Charlie Johnson
And she's really lookin' good
I asked if I could see her
So I called her on the phone
Went over to her house
And this was goin' on
Her brother was on the sofa
Eatin' chocolate pie
Her mom was in the kitchen
Cuttin' chicken up to fry
Her daddy was in the backyard
Rollin' up a garden hose
And I was down with Charlotte
Feelin' [Gbm] love down [G] to my toes
[A] We was swingin'
[E] Just a swingin'
[A] And [B] little Charlotte she's as pretty
As the angels when they sing
I [A] can't believe I'm out here
On the front porch in a [E] swing
Just a swingin'
Just a swingin'
[Bbm]
I said, Grandpa, what's this picture here?
It's [Ab] all black and white
It ain't real [Eb] clear, is that you there?
Yeah, [Bb] I was 11
[Bbm] And times were tough back in 35
[Cm] [Ab] That's me and Uncle Joe
We're tryin' to survive [Eb] a cotton farm
In the [Bb] Great Depression
[Am] She's been good to me
[G] When things weren't goin' right
[Am] She made my days [D] long
Before you made my nights
[Gm] Oh, the hardest [C] thing I'll ever [G] have to do
[C]
Is [G] holdin' her [D] and lovin' you
[G]
I shot [Eb] it!
