A Boy Named Sue [G]Johnny Cash

Verse 1 G My daddy left home when I was three, C And he didn't leave much to ma and me
D Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of G booze.
G Now, I don't blame him cause he run and hid, C But the meanest thing that he ever did
D Was before he left, he went and named me "G Sue."

Verse 2 G Well, he must of thought that is quite a joke,
C And it got a lot of laughs from a' lots of folk,
D It seems I had to fight my whole life G through.
G Some gal would giggle and I'd get red, C And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head,
D I tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named G "Sue."

Verse 3 G Well, I grew up quick and I grew up mean, C My fist got hard and my wits got keen,
D I'd roam from town to town to hide my G shame.
G But I made a vow to the moon and stars, C That I'd search the honky-tonks and bars
D And kill that man who gave me that awful G name.

Verse 4 G Well, it was Gatlinburg in mid-July, C And I just hit town and my throat was dry,
D I thought I'd stop and have myself a G brew.
G At an old saloon on a street of mud, C There at a table, dealing stud,
D Sat the dirty, mangy dog that named me "G Sue."

Verse 5 G Well, I knew that snake was my own sweet dad,
C From a worn-out picture that my mother'd had,
D And I knew that scar on his cheek and his G evil eye.
G He was big and bent and gray and old, C And I looked at him and my blood ran cold
D And I said "My name is 'Sue!' G How do you do!

Now you gonna die!!"

Verse 6 G Well, I hit him hard right between the eyes, C And he went down, but to my surprise,
D He come up with a knife and cut off a G piece of my ear.
G But I busted a chair right across his teeth, C And we crashed through the wall and into the street
D Kicking and a' gouging in the mud and the blood and G the beer.

Verse 7 G I tell ya, I've fought tougher men, C But I really can't remember when,
D He kicked like a mule and he bit like a G crocodile.
G I heard him laugh and then I heard him cuss, C He went for his gun and I pulled mine first,
D He stood there lookin' at me and I saw him G smile.

Verse 8 G And he said "Son, this world is rough,
C And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough
D And I knew I wouldn't be there to help ya G along.
G So I give ya that name and I said goodbye, C I knew you'd have to get tough or die
D And it's the name that helped to make you G strong."

Verse 9 G He said "Now you just fought one hell of a fight,
C And I know you hate me, and you got the right
D To kill me now, and I wouldn't blame you if you G do.
G But ya ought to thank me, before I die, C For the gravel in ya guts and the spit in ya eye
D Cause I'm the son-of-a-bitch that named you "G Sue.'"

Verse 10 G I got all choked up and I threw down my gun,
C And I called him my pa, and he called me his son,
D And I came away with a different point of G view.
G And I think about him, now and then, C Every time I try and every time I win,

Outro No Chords
And if I ever have a son, I think I'm gonna name him
Bill or George! G Anything but Sue! I still hate that name!

Coward Of The County [A]Kenny Rogers

Intro A A

Verse 1
A Everyone considered him the D coward of the A county
He'd never stood one single time to prove the county E7 wrong.
His A mama named him Tommy, but D folks just called him A yellow,
Something always told me they were E7 reading Tommy A wrong.

Verse 2
A He was only ten years old when his D daddy died in A prison;
I took care of Tommy, 'cause he was my brother's E7 son.
I A still recall the final words my D brother said to A Tommy,
"Son my life is over, but E7 yours has just A begun".

Chorus
A "Promise me, son, not to D do the things I've A done
D Walk away from A trouble if you E7 can.
A It won't mean you're weak if you D turn the other A cheek
A I hope you're old D enough to underE7stand,
E7 Son, you don't have to fight to be a A man."

Verse 3
A There's someone for everyone, and D Tommy's love was A Becky.
A In her arms he didn't have to prove he was a E7 man.
A One day while he was working, the D Gatlin boys came A calling
They took turns at Becky, E7 n' there was three of A them.

Verse 4
A Tommy opened up the door, and saw D Becky crying. A
The torn dress, the shattered look was more than he could E7 stand.
A He reached above the fireplace, and took D down his daddy's A picture.
As the tears fell on his daddy's face, he E7 heard these words A again

Chorus

Verse 5
A The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he D walked into the A barroom;
One of them got up and met him half way cross the E7 floor.
A When Tommy turned around they said, "Hey D look! old yeller's A leaving,"
But you could've heard a pin drop when Tommy E7 stopped and locked the A door.

Verse 6
A Twenty years of crawling were D bottled up A inside him.
He wasn't holding nothing back - he let 'em have it E7 all.
A When Tommy left the bar room, not a D Gatlin boy was A standing.
A He said, "This one's for Becky, as he E7 watched the last one A fall. And I heard him say,

Chorus
A "I promised you, Dad, not to D do the things you've A done
D I walk away from A trouble when I E7 can
Now A please don't think I'm weak, I didn't D turn the other A cheek,
A And papa, I sure D hope you underE7stand
SomeE7times you gotta fight when you're a A man".

Outro
A Everyone considered him the D* coward of the A* county.

Am Cows G aren't  Am fun
Am They eat to grow, grow to die, Die to be et at the hamburger fry
Am Cows G well Am done

Am Nobody thunk it, nobody knew, No one imagined the great cow guru
Am Cows G are Am one
Am He hid in the forest, read books with great zeal, He loved Che Guevera, a revolutionary veal
Am Cow G Tse Am Tongue

Am He spoke about justice, but nobody stirred, He felt like an outcast, alone in the herd
Am Cow G dol- Am drums
Am He mooed we must fight, escape or we'll die, Cows gathered around,
cause the steaks were so high
Am Bad G cow Am pun

Am But then he was captured, stuffed into a crate, Loaded onto a truck, where he rode to his fate
Am Cows G are Am bummed
Am He was a scrawny calf, who looked rather woozy, No one suspected he was packing an Uzi
Am Cows G with Am guns

Am They came with a needle to stick in his thigh, He kicked for the groin, he pissed in their eye
Am Cow G well Am hung
Am Knocked over a tractor and ran for the door, Six gallons of gas flowed out on the floor
Am Run G Cows  Amrun!
NC He picked up a bullhorn and jumped up on the hay We are free roving bovines we run free today

Chorus
We will F fight for bovine C freedom, And E7 hold our large heads Am high
We will F run free with the C Buffalo, or E7 die, Cows with Am guns G Am

Am They crashed the gate in a great stampede, Tipped over a milk truck, torched all the feed
Am Cows G have Am fun
Am Sixty police cars were piled in a heap, Covered in cow pies, covered up deep
Am Much G cow Am dung
Am Black smoke rising, darkening the day, Twelve burning McDonalds, have it your way

Chorus

Am The President said "enough is enough These uppity cattle, its time to get tough"
Am Cow G dung Am flung
Am The newspapers gloated, folks sighed with relief, Tomorrow at noon,
they would all be ground beef
Am Cows G on Am buns
Am The cows were surrounded, they waited and prayed They mooed their last moos,
they chewed their last hay
Am Cows Gout- Am gunned

NC The order was given to turn cows to whoppers, Enforced by the might of ten thousand coppers
But on the horizon surrounding the shoppers, Came the deafening roar of chickens in choppers

Chorus
We will F fight for bovine C freedom, And E7 hold our large heads Am high
We will F run free with the C Buffalo, or E7 die, Cows with Am guns G Am

Everybody won't be treated all the same.
There'll be a golden ladder reaching Am down. F When G the man comes C around.

And the F whirlwind is in the C thorn tree.
The C virgins are all trimming their wicks.
The F whirlwind is in the C thorn tree.

D Well it's a long way to Richmond,

Like a C modern day G Bonnie and D Clyde.

Verse 1
We D met at a truckstop,
G Johnson City, TenneDssee.
I was G gassing up my Firebird,
When I heard her callin' D me.
Said "Which A way are you headed boy?
C Do you G need some compaDny?"

Verse 2
She had me D stopping at a Kwik-Mart,
G Before we made it outta D town.
G Next thing she was runnin' at me,
Tellin' me to lay that hammer D down.
'Cause there's a A man right behind me,
C Doin' his G best to slow me D down.

Chorus 2
Yeah, and it's a D long way to Richmond,
G Rollin' North on 9 D 5.
With a G redhead ridin' shotgun,

Verse 3
Well we D pulled up to a motel,
G In the middle of the D night.
We were G counting all the money,
Smoking stolen Marlboro D Lights.
Lord, we A never saw 'em comin'
C 'Til they G read us both our D rights.

Chorus 3
Yeah, and it's a D long way to Richmond,
G Rollin' North on 9 D 5.
With a G sheriff right beside me,
Pistol G pointed at my D side.
Such a A disappointing ending,
For this C modern day G Bonnie and D Clyde.

One Piece At A Time [G]Johnny Cash

Intro
G C D D G

Verse 1 G Well I left Kentucky back in '49, And went to C Detroit working on assembly line
The D first year they had me putting wheels on CadilGlac's
Every day I'd watch them beauties roll by, And C sometimes I'd hang my head and cry
'Cause I D always wanted me one that was long and G black
Verse 2 One day I devised myself a plan, That should C be the envy of most any man
I'd D sneak it outta there in a lunch box in my G hand
Now getting caught meant getting fired, But I C figured I'd have it all by the time I retired
I'd D have me a car worth at least a hundred G grand

Chorus
I'd get it one piece at a time and it C wouldn't cost me a dime
You'll D know it's me when I come through your G town
I'm gonna ride around in style I'm gonna C drive everybody wild
'Cause D I'll have the only one there is G around

Verse 3 So the very next day when I punched in, With my C big lunch box and with help
from my friends, I D left that day with a lunch-box full of G gears
I've never considered myself a thief, But C GM wouldn't miss just one little piece
D Especially if I strung it out over several G years
Verse 4 The first day I got me a fuel pump, And the C next day I got me an engine and a trunk
Then D I got me a transmission and all the G chrome
The little things I could get in my big lunch box, Like C nuts and bolts and all four shocks
D But the big stuff we snuck out in my buddy's mobile G home

Verse 5 Now up to now my plan went alright, Till we C tried to put it all together one night
And D that's when we noticed that something was definitely G wrong
The transmission was a '53, And the C motor turned out to be a '73
And D when we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were G gone
Verse 6 So we drilled it out so that it would fit, And with a little C bit of help from an adapter kit
We D had that engine running just like a G song
Now the headlights they was another sight, We had C two on the left and one on the right
But D when we pulled out the switch all three of 'em come G on

Verse 7 The back end looked kind of funny too, But we C put it together and when we got through
Well D that's when we noticed that we only had one tail G fin
About that time my wife walked out, And I could C see in her eyes that she had her doubts
But she D opened the door and said honey take me for a G spin
Verse 8 So we drove uptown just to get the tags, And I C headed her right on down main drag
I could D hear everybody laughing for blocks G around
But up there at the courthouse they didn't laugh, Cause to C type it up it took the whole staff
And when D they got through the title weighed sixty G pounds

Chorus
I got it one piece at a time and it C didn't cost me a dime
You'd D know it's me when I come through your G town
I'm gonna ride around in style I'm gonna C drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll D have the only one there is G around

Outro
G Ah yeah Red Rider this is the Cottonmouth, In the Psychobilly Cadillac come on
Oh this is the Cottonmouth and negatory, On the cost of this machine there Red Rider
You might say I went right up to the factory and picked it up, It's cheaper that way...
Ah what model it is?

and there's nothing short of C dying
that's half as lonesome as the G sound
of the sleeping city D sidewalks
and Sunday morning coming G down

Verse 3
in the G park I saw a G7 daddy
with a C laughing little D girl that he was G swinging
and I G stopped beside a Sunday school
Em and listened to the songs they were D singing
then I G headed down the G7 street
and somewhere C far away a lonely bell was ringGing Em
and it C echoed through the D canyons
like our Am disappearing D dreams of yesterGday

The Devil Went Up to Belfast [C]Dave Norton

Verse 1
C The devil went up to Belfast, he was lookin’ for a show to steal,
G He’d heard of a lad with a ukulele, whose fingers danced like wheels.
F He found young Sean in a pub downtown, strummin’ soft, strummin’ low,
C And he slid up close with a crooked grin, sayin’, “Boy, let’s see that flow.” C G C

Pre-Chorus
F “Well, I’m a devil, and I’ll wager this, my skills are tough to beat.
C But if you win, this golden uke will be yours to keep."
G Sean laughed and stood up tall, said, "Devil, make your play,
F But know you’ve come to Belfast where the music’s here to stay." C G C

Chorus
C The devil played his ukulele and he made those strings ignite,
G But Sean just grinned and tapped his foot, his melody pure delight.
F When the music stopped, the devil frowned, his pride was on the line,
C For Belfast’s boy had played so strong, his soul would still be fine. C G C

Verse 2
C The devil’s hands were quick and sharp, his chords rang loud and clear,
G But Sean had learned from Belfast streets, and he played without a fear.
F The devil ripped a riff of doom, a stormcloud filled the bar,
C But Sean brought light with a lilting tune that shined like a shooting star. C G C

Pre-Chorus
F “Well played,” said Sean, “but hear me now, this soul is mine to keep.
C Let’s show this crowd how Belfast folk can make a devil weep!”
G He picked up his uke and plucked a reel, the room began to sway,
F The devil grimaced, tapped his feet, but Sean had seized the day. C G C

Chorus
C The devil played his ukulele and he made those strings ignite,
G But Sean just grinned and tapped his foot, his melody pure delight.
F When the music stopped, the devil frowned, his pride was on the line,
C For Belfast’s boy had played so strong, his soul would still be fine. C G C

Bridge
F The devil dropped his golden uke, his pride was burning sore,
C “Belfast boy, you’ve got the gift; I can’t take no more!”
G Sean just laughed and tipped his cap, “You gave a decent fight,
F But here in Belfast, devil, music always shines bright.” C G C

Outro
C Now if you wander into Belfast town and hear a uke so bold,
G Remember Sean who beat the devil and claimed his uke of gold.
F The legend lives in every tune that echoes through the night,
C Where Belfast streets and ukulele beats keep the spirit alive and bright! C G C

The Road Goes On Forever [D]The Highwaymen

Verse 1
Sherry was D a waitress, At the only joint in town She had a G reputation,
As a girl who'd been around, Down main D street after midnight, Brand new pack of cigs
A fresh one G hanging from her lips, A beer between her legs
She'd ride A down to the river, And meet with all her friends
The road goes G on forever, And the party never ends D

Verse 2Willie Nelson
Sonny was D a loner, Bolder than the rest, He was goin' G in the Navy,
But he couldn't pass the test, So he hung D around town, He sold a little pot
The law caught G wind of Sonny, One day he got caught
But he was A back in business, When they set him free again
The road goes G on forever, And the party never ends D

Verse 3
Sonny's playin' D eight ball, At the joint where Sherry works, When some G drunken out of towner,
Put his hand up Sherry's skirt, Sonny took D his pool cue, Laid the drunk out on the floor
Stuffed a G dollar in her tip jar, Walked on out the door
She's runnin' A right behind him, Reachin' for his hand
The road goes G on forever, And the party never ends D

Verse 4
They jumped D into his pick-up, Sonny jammed her down in gear. Sonny looked G at Sherry,
Said,"Let's get out of here", The stars were D high above them, The moon was in the east
The sun was G setting on them, When they reached Miami Beach
They got a A motel by the water, And a quart of Bombay Gin
The road goes G on forever, And the party never ends D

Verse 5
They soon D ran out of money, But Sonny knew a man, Who knew some G Cuban refugees,
Who dealt in contreband, Sonny met D the Cuban, In a house just off the route
With a briefGcase full of money, And a pistol in his boot
The cards were A on the table, When the law came bustin' in
The road goes G on forever, And the party never ends D

Verse 6
The Cubans D grabbed the goodies, And Sonny grabbed the jack, He broke the G bathroom
window, And climbed on out the back Sherry drove D the pick-up, Through the alley on the side
Where the G lawman tackled Sonny, And was reading him his rights
She stepped A out in the alley, With a single shot four-ten
The road goes G on forever, And the party never ends D

Verse 7
They left D the lawman dyin', They made their get away, Got back to G the motel,
Just before the break of day, Sonny gave D her all the money, And he blew a little kiss
If they ask G you how this happened, Say i forced you into this
She watched him A as his tail lights, Disappeared around the bend
The road goes G on forever, And the party never ends D

Verse 8
There's main D street after midnight , Just like it was before, Twenty-one G months later,
At the local grocery store, Sherry buys D a paper, And a cold six pack of beer
The headlines G read that Sonny, Is going to the chair
She pulls back A onto main street, In her new Mercedes-Benz
The road goes G on forever, And the party never ends D
