Oh,
lies,
there's a big old hurry,
fourteen kids,
when his daddy [F#] _
[A] _ _ [Am] _ [A] got caught
stealing chickens from
a neighbor one day.
Worked [Am] _ [A] on lies. _
Oh,
lies,
[Am] born the _ [A] _ son of a slave.
_ _ _ Oh, lies, _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I'm gonna sing you a song. _ _
Yeah,
[Am] _ _ [A] _ _ _
it's all about a man. _ _ _ _
Nobody
hardly knows him.
Said nobody
_ hardly knows him.
Said one more time,
nobody
hardly knows him.
His name,
[Gm] a good morning [A] ron,
but you're son, son. _
You lived your life
before your son was [F#] son.
[A] People agree,
now you're number one.
So sad to think
we had to wait so long.
[D] Keeps on getting better every day. _ _
Maybe someday soon
[E] people will say,
ain't [A] nobody here,
here for good people.
Ain't nobody here,
here for good people.
Ain't nobody here,
here for good people. _ _
Just drinking the wine
[E] and loving it [A] slow.
