Left my mama a goodbye note,
D7
By sundown I'd left Kingston,
D7
With my guitar under my coat,
G7
I hitchhiked all the way down to Memphis,
G7
Got a room at the YMCA,
D7
For the next three weeks I went huntin' them nights,
D7
Just lookin' for a place to play,
A7
Well, I thought my pickin' would set 'em on fire,
G7 (Tacet)
But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man.......
Repeat: G C several times.....
G
Oh, baby I'm gonna teach you what love's all about tonight
G D7
Trust me honey everything's gonna be all right, oh yeah
G
Just do like I do there ain't nothing to it
C (Tacet)
Listen to me baby anybody can do it
G D (Tacet G
All you gotta do is just..... let yourself go
G C G C
G
Now don't be afraid just relax and take it real slow
G D7
Cool it baby you ain't got no place to go
G
Just put your arms around me real tight
C (Tacet)
Enjoy yourself baby don't fight
G D (Tacet) G
All you gotta do is just..... let yourself go
C
All you need is just a little rehearsal
G
The first thing that you know
C
You'll be ready for the grand finale
D7
So come on baby let's go
Let's go, let's go' let's go
Let's go

Take a real deep breath and put your warm red lips on mine

C
Baby I'm the only one here in line
G D (Tacet) G C G
All you gotta do is just..... let yourself go
C G C G
Let yourself go right now Yeh! let yourself go
D7
Well, I nearly 'bout starved to death down in Memphis,
D7
I run outta money and luck,
D7
So I bought me a ride down to Macon, Georgia,
D7
On a overloaded poultry truck,
G7
I thumbed on down to Panama City,
G7
Started pickin' out some o' them all night bars,
D7
Hopin' I could make myself a dollar,
D7
Makin' music on my guitar,
A7
I got the same old story at them all night piers,
G7 (Tacet)
There ain't no room around here for a guitar man
F#
Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call?
B F#
Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call?
Spoken: "Can't you hear me when I call?"
C# B F#
Well you ain't so big, you know you're just tall that's all
F#
Well you got me workin' boss man
F#
Workin' round the clock
F#
I wanna little drink of water
F#
But you won't let big Al stop
C# F#
Big boss man now can't you hear me when I call?
C# B F#
You know you ain't so big, you know you're just tall that's all
Bb Dm Gm Dm Bb7
It hurts me to see him treat you the way he does
Eb F Bb Bb7
It hurts me to see you sit and cry
Eb C#dim7
When I know I could be so true
Bb D Gm
If I had someone like you
C7 Cm F
It hurts me to see those tears in your eyes
Bb Dm Gm Dm Bb7
The whole town is talking, they're callin' you a fool
Eb F Bb Bb7
For listening to his same old lies
Eb C#dim7
And when I know I could be so true
Bb D Gm
If I had someone like you
C7 F Bb Bb7
It hurts me to see the way he makes you cry
Eb F Bb D Gm
You love him too much, you're too blind to see
Eb F Bb Bb7
He's only playing a game
Eb C#dim7
But he's never loved you
Bb D Gm
He never will
C7 F
And darling, don't you know he will never change
Bb Dm Gm Dm Bb7
Oh, I know he never will set you free
Eb F Bb
Because he's just that kind of guy
Bb7 Eb C#dim7
But if you ever tell him you're through
Bb D Gm
I'll be waiting for you
Bb Gm
Waiting to hold you so tight
Bb Gm
Waiting to kiss you goodnight
Cm7 Bb
Yes, darling, if I had someone like you
D7
So I slept in the hobo jungles,
D7
Roamed a thousand miles of track,
D7
Till I found myself in Mobile Alabama,
D7
At a club they call Big Jack's,
G7
A little four-piece band was jammin',
G7
So I took my guitar and I sat in,
D7
I showed 'em what a band would sound like,
G7
With a swingin' little guitar man.
Show 'em, son
E
I went and bought myself a ticket and I sat down in the very first row
A
They pulled the curtain but then when they turned the spotlight way down low
B
Little Egypt came out a-struttin' wearin' nothin' but a button and a bow
A B
Singing, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying
E
Little egypt.....

If you're looking for trouble
(Riff 1)
You came to the right place
(Riff 2)
If you're looking for trouble
(Riff 1)
Just look right in my face
(Riff 2)
I was born standing up
(Riff 1)
And talking back

My daddy was a green-eyed mountain jack
E B
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery
F#7 E (tacet)
Well I'm evil, so don't you mess around with me......
(Riff 1)
(Riff 2)
I've never looked for trouble
(Riff 1)
But I've never ran
(Riff 2)
I don't take no orders
(Riff 1)
From no kind of man
(Riff 2)
I'm only made out
(Riff 1)
Of flesh, blood and bone
[NC]
But if you're gonna start a rumble
Don't you try it on alone
E B
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery
F#7 E (tacet)
Well I'm evil, so don't you mess around with me
E7
Well I come a long way from the carwash
E7
Got to where I said I get
E7
Commin' down here I know for sure
E7
I really ain't got there yett
A7
So, I think I start all over
A7
Singing with a guitar on my back
E7
I'm gonna get myself a ?????????
B7
I never be more than what I am
A7
Well, wouldn't you know
E7
I'm a swinging little guitar man
