[E] [B]
[E] [A] Alright, [E]
[A] oh yeah!
[E]
Got in a little trouble, down at County C.
Lost a clip in the jailhouse, all up and down the street.
When the judge read the verdict, I was a guilty man.
Said $45, for 40 days in the can.
Said [A] that'll be cash on [E] the very next time.
You can take your choice, with the 21.
No money [A] dime, no credit plan.
No time [B] to chase you, cause [E] I'm a big man.
[B]
And it's hot, quick, quick, it's hot.
[A]
[B]
40 days in the jailhouse, 4 days on the road.
[Em] I was feeling mighty hungry, need [E] to head to the low.
Saw a greyhound coming, stuck out my thumb.
Before I got to my seat, he grabbed a cup of my heart.
Said that'll be [A]
cash on the very next time.
This old [B] red top gets made to run,
when the engines [A]
start, you [Em] know his won't grow.
[E] You can catch on the barrel [B] head, I'll take an hour to roll.
[F#] Said that'll be [A]
cash on [E] the very next time.
[A] You can take your [B]
choice, with the [E] 21.
No money [A] dime, no credit plan.
No time to [B] chase you, cause I'm a busy man.
No time to [B] chase you, cause I'm a [E] busy man.
You're late, oh, you're late.
[Em]
Thank you!
[F#]
[B] Thank you very much.
Thank you.
[Am]
Thank you, [Em] here's an old song from a long time back.
[A] [D]
[D] [Em]
[A]
[C#] [A]
In South [E] Carolina,
[Em] [D]
there are many roots [A] all around.
I [E] remember the oak trees, that we used to [E] climb.
[Bm] But [E]
now, [D] in my soul, [E]
I always [A] pretend,
that I'm [B] getting [D] the feel, [E] of hickory [A] wind.
[D]
I [A] started [E] out younger,
[D] had most [E]
everything.
[A]
All the riches [E] and pleasures, [D]
what else could [E] life bring?
But it makes me [D] feel better, [E]
each time [A] it begins.
[D]
[E]
[A] Hickory wind, [D] oh, hickory [A]
[E]
[D]
[A] [C#]
[Bm] [A] wind.
It's a [F#] hard way [E] to find out,
[D] that trouble is [A] real.
In a far away [E] city, [D]
with a far away feel.
But it [E] makes me [D] feel better, each time [A] it begins.
[A] [D]
[E]
[A] Hickory
[C#] wind, [Bm] [A] oh, hickory wind.
It's a hard [D] way to
[E] find out, that trouble is [D] real.
In a far away city, [Bm] with a far away feel.
[A] [B]
