Start Jamming...
[B] Anyway, when you are travelling around it's pretty nice because you get [D] a chance to meet
some of [F#] the old timers that you've been listening to on record for years.
I [F#m] like playing this [Bm] tune because I get a chance to mention the great Doc Watson.
A while back I learned to play the marigold with Doc [Bm] Watson and it was like a real
[A] He's a great flat-picked [Bm] guitarist and he's unbelievable and wonderful.
[F#m] He's a great old ballad singer.
[Bm]
Basically [G] he's the type of guy you don't want to tour with.
So when I was [C#] on that tour I stayed clear of playing any American tunes.
I just played lots of old [G] Celtic tunes on that one for fear of comparison.
This particular tune is an [D] old Appalachian mountain.
[B]
I played this one night [G] and this is about me.
[Bm]
It was a little [A] foolish of me to play that [Bm] tune from Munich in the woods.
And [G] people were like, that's the right [E] size.
And I was like, no, [B] I'm not.
[F]
My [G] memory's getting [Bm] weak.

[B] While he went down he peed in the weeds and the grass grew up to his chin.
Weeds and the grass grew so high, cause that young man was gonna cry.
[D] [B]
[F#m] [Bm]
[B] Now he went down to his neighbor's man, gonna call him a single-born young man.
[Bm]
[F#] [Bm]
[B] Yes, my dear, that's his reply.
Yes, my dear, [Bm] I'll lay it by.
It was what's right and then I believed it was over, it was.

What of the young man that won't raise corn is the laziest man that ever was born.
Single I am, single I remain, a lazy man I won't make.
