[Intro]
A
[Verse]
A E
In a cold church basement one November Friday night
D7 A
Come along, come along
A E
In a twelve step meeting under harsh florescent light
D7 A
Now that's bright, hey come on
[Verse]
A E
I know I deserve to be there, but I don't remember why
D7 A
I was looking for salvation, but nothing caught my eye
A E
My turn to tell my story and I guess it's worth a try
D7 A
Come along, come along,
E A
Come along, come along
[Chorus]
E A
Come a ki-yi bossie, come a bossie come along,
F#m7 E
Come a ki-yi bossie come along
E A
Come a ki-yi bossie, come a bossie come along,
E A
Come along, come along
E A
Come along, come along
A
[Verse]
A E
Well I guess she had other interests, she had something else to do
D7 A
You okay? Well, me too
A E
So tell me watcha gonna, whatcha gonna, watcha gonna do?
D7 A
Well okay, boohoo
[Verse]
A E
So now the happy hour is raining on my shoes
D7 A
And it's not all that important which poison that you choose
A E
When you're tuning up to sing the rum and coke and whiskey blues
D7 A
And that melody comes through
E A
And now you're paying your dues
[Chorus]
E A
Come a ki-yi bossie, come a bossie come along,
F#m7 E
Come a ki-yi bossie come along
E A
Come a ki-yi bossie, come a bossie come along,
E A
Come along, come along
E A
Come along, come along
A
[Verse]
A E
Back before I drove a pickup and I took up buckin' bails
D7 A
Come along, come along
A E
I was looking high and low for meaning, I was into saving whales
D7 A
Before they're all gone
[Verse]
A E
But the weeds grow high and that's where it all begins
D7 A
When I stop to wonder why that was fertile ground for sin
A E
Just pour some whiskey on it and watch the fun begin
D7 A
Come along, come along
E A
What could possibly go wrong?
A
[Verse]
A E
Here, pour a little whiskey on that fertile patch of soil
D7 A
Come along, come along
A E
Sprinkle in a little heartache, watch the ground begin to boil
D7 A
Now it's coming on strong
[Verse]
A E
As it starts to take its shape there ain't nothing there to like
D7 A
You best have quick reactions, it'll rattle coil and strike
A E
Time to change the scenery, it's time to hit the pike
D7 A
And okay, I'm gone
[Bridge]
A E
They say each of us has meaning, time to bring that all to light,
D7 A
Well alright, right on
E A
Come along, come along
[Chorus]
E A
Come a ki-yi bossie, come a bossie come along,
F#m7 E
Come a ki-yi bossie come along
E A
Come a ki-yi bossie, come a bossie come along,
E A
Come along, come along
E A
Come along, come along
[Chorus]
E A
Come a ki-yi bossie, come a bossie come along,
F#m7 E
Come a ki-yi bossie come along
E A
Come a ki-yi bossie, come a bossie come along,
E A
Come along, come along
E A
Come along, come along
[Outro]
E A
Come along, come along
E A
Come along, come along,
E A
Come along, come along
