Chords for Dailey & Vincent - 16 Tons

We decided about a year and a half [G#] ago that we wanted to hire a full-time bassist.
We [N] said, look_
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
[B] We're gonna see if [G] there's any more business.
[E] Oh, no.
_ [Bm] _ But we decided to hire [B] this guy.
Our good friends Bill Gates and Mark Lowry told us about it.
We found him singing on YouTube and I heard him sing and I told Aaron,
I said, Aaron, you gotta hear it because [C] we make decisions together, you know.
[G] And he went in there and he [B] heard it too.
So I sent Chris a Facebook message.
I told him who we were, what we're about, [F#] and he replied back, said he never heard [N] of us, didn't care. _ _ _ _ _
_ So I stayed on him and I stayed on [E] him and finally he came to Nashville to my living room in formal [B] rehearsal.
We [C] wanted to see what he could do with us [E] vocally.
And y'all, [D] in my living room, he'd get this big logo.
And I said, [Bm] wow, what a figure. _
[F] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Then, God really excited [E]
because I thought, [Bm] _ [C] it will fit right in.
[B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
And he has.
[B] _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Well, this song I was gonna [B] sing for you was a big hit in the 60s.
It [Bm] sold over 20 million LPs back then.
I think you know it, but we need [B] crowd participation.
Can we get everybody in the office [N] in the back? _
_ Can we have some more Bill? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [B] All you have to do is snap your fingers.
What's the beat?
All _ _ _ right, everybody [N] snap your fingers.
Come on, man.
It's really important.
The meeting stops.
Is somebody else?
No, no, big job, man.
Come on.
[B] One, two, three, four.

_ [N] _ _ I didn't think it was all that. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ That was great.
I thought it was pretty sexy. _ _ _ _
You got the sexy on this thing. _ _ _ _
_ I think this look is this one. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Cm] That's what you call [A#] sexy, that's all.
_ [B] _ _
You want a picture?
_ [N] Yeah. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G#] Excuse me.
Hey, get off the stage.
That's my [A#] son.
_ _ _ _ [B] You know, he might be the best tenor in this [A#] place, but don't go there.
I don't know if [N] that's a thing.
Here's what I'll do.
If you'll sing it to these fine folks [B] again, I'll act it out for you.
[A] For you what?
I'll act it [B] out for you.
Would you look at this, Harry?
Looks like you fixed it with the firecrackers.
_ [N] _
_ _ _ All right, here we go.
Which leg do you feel better? _
_ Be easy now, son.
Don't touch it.
_ What are you doing?
_ [B] _ _ _
He's singing, and I'm [A] going, you just watch.
_ _ _ [D] _
I [B] hold _ my [D] soul.
_ [F#] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [A] _ Do [N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
what he can. _ _ _ _ _ _
He's getting old, boy. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Grow worse.
_ [Bm] _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ [C] _ _ [N] That sounds like my boat motor.
_ _ I feel like a quip. _ _
_ _ _ _ Love, love, [F#] love, love.
Yeah!
Now [C] that sounds like Parker on the bus every morning.
[N] Arrrr!
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ You want it?
Yeah! _
I _ _ feel like a [D] river.
[F#] _
Feel [B] like I'm gonna be strong. _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ [F] Oh, [Bm]
that's great.
_ _ _ _ [B] Mr.
Davis.
