Chords for Mark Knopfler And Chet Atkins - Yakety Axe (With Lyrics)

_ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ [Am] _ [G] _ [A] Poverty's stricken, but still I'm a-stickin' to the things where I know to be thanks
One bit of feathers in the next day, [E] pickin' while I'm pickin' my yakety axe
[A] Everybody says that I never will get [D] far keepin' out of work by pickin' this [A] guitar
Livin' on a shoestring, puttin' off things like a shave and a [G] haircut
_ [A] Money don't matter as long as I scatter a little bit of happiness around
If people keep a-grinnin', I figure I'm a [E]-winnin' with my good old yakety sound
[A] City folks go around turnin' up their [D] noses and countin' their greenbacks and smellin' their [A] roses
But I wouldn't trade my yakety axe even for a T-bone
_ [D] I'm confessin' I never took a lesson, all my notes are a matter of guessin'
Hopin' they'll come out in some kinda [A] manner that'll make a yakety sound
[D] So if you're in the mood and your feet start [G] tappin' and you feel laid back and your hands start [D] clappin'
Then I'll have done what I wanted to from way back here, [A] diggin' my yakety axe
Now, I'm a-winnin' _
