Guitar Man Chords by Jerry Reed

[N] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#] _ [C#] Well, I quit my job down at the car wash, left my mama a good-bye note.
By sundown, I left Kingston with my guitar under my coat.
I hitchhiked all the [F#] way down to Memphis, got a room at the YMCA.
[C#] For the next three weeks, I went a-hauntin' them nightclubs, lookin' for a place to play.
Well, I [G#m] thought my pickin' would set them on fire, but [F#] nobody wanted to hire a [C#] guitar man. _
_ _ _ [G#] Well, I [C#] nearly about starved to death down in Memphis.
I'd run out of money and luck.
So I bummed me a ride down to make Georgia on overloaded poachers truck.
I bummed on [F#] down to Panama City, started checkin' out [C#] some of them all-night bars.
Hopin' I could make myself a dollar makin' music on my guitar.
[G#m] Got the same old story with them all-night peers.
[F#] There ain't no room around here for a guitar [C#] man.
But don't need a guitar man, son.
_ So I [F#] slept in hobo jungles, farmed a thousand miles of track,
till I found [C#] myself in Mobile, Alabama at a club they called Big Jack's.
A little [F#] four-piece band was jammin', so I took my guitar and I set in.
[D#] I showed them what a band would sound like with [G#] a swingin' little guitar man.
Show them, [C#m] son. _

_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ [G#m] _ _ [F#] _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G#m]
So if you [C#] ever take a trip down to the ocean, find yourself down around Mobile,
or make it on out to the club called Jack's, you've got a little time to kill.
[F#] Just follow that crowd of people, you'll wind up out on his dance floor.
[C#] Diggin' to find a steady five-piece group up in down in Gulf of Mexico.
_ [G#m] And guess who's leadin' that five-piece [F#] band?
Well, wouldn't you know, it's [C#m] that swingin' little guitar man. _ Yeah, hey! _
