Chords for Motherlode - Lonnie Knight in Kobe Japan

Out front, before the show started, somebody out there,
where are you, had a copy of an album by a friend,
an old friend of mine named Dick Pinney.
_ _ _ _ I played on Dick's album.
His [G] album was called Devil Take My Shiny Coins.
_ [F] Dick and I were very, very good friends for a long time
and Dick wrote this next song that I recorded.
I recorded one of those albums.
I don't even remember which one it was.
_ _ But I gotta go to other people to get songs
you can tap your toes to,
because my songs are all so sad and dark and lonely and blue.
_ _ Dick wrote this one and this one's a toe-tapper. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ You hear anything you wanna sing along with,
by all means, chime right in.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F]
I got beggars on my trail, leaning [C] ragged railing [D] to hold [Bb] me while I'm ailing again. _ _
But if I think it's cold, I'll find that mother [C]
load, [Dm] I'll be [Bb] _ back on [F] again. _ _
[C] You may know [G] me when I've been [Gm] blessed.
When [F] I [Bb] give you some, then I move on with the rest.
[C] Save a place in the corner, [F] leave [Gm] your key by the door,
and [F] I'll leave [Bb] in jubilation.
_ I'll be returning in more, [F] some more.
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] Long old [C] Ben Frost [Gm] is over, [Bb] and it looks [F] unreal. _ _
But if I doubt your [D] mind, I'll be pulled along by a [C] kind of a [Dm] spirit,
[Bb] a spirit that makes me feel. _ _
_ [C] You may know me when I [Gm] have been blessed.
When I [Bb] give you some, then I move on with the rest.
Save a [C] place in the corner, [F] leave your [Gm] key by the door,
and [F] I'll leave [Bb] in jubilation.
_ I'll be returning in more, [F] some more.

_ [F] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ [Gm] I [F] got beggars on [Eb] my trail, [F] leaning [C] ragged railing to [Bb] hold me while I'm ailing again. _ _
But [F] if I think in [Eb] code, and I [F] find that mother [Gm] load, [Dm] Lord, [Bb] I will be back [F] on again. _
_ _ [C] You may know [G] me when I have been blessed.
When I give you some, [Bb] then I move on with the [C] rest.
Save a place in the corner, [Gm] leave your key by the door,
and [F] I'll [Bb] leave in jubilation. _ _
Jubilation.
_ I'll be returning in [F] more, some more.
