Jay Hugh (Sister Sadie)

No intro

[Verse 1]
Am
Dee Dee Mae they called her, was the bride of O. Jay Hugh
E7 Am
He made her a widow at the age of forty-two

He was a burdened, tortured soul, gypsy life he lived
E7 D Am
And she worked those fields of cotton just to keep twelve babies fed


[Instrumental]
Am Am


[Verse 2]
Am
Oh they say he knew the Bible but he chose to ignore
E7 Am
'Cause he longed for the bottle, every ounce and every pore

He knew her love was stronger for her heart was pure and true
E7 D Am
And she made her home from a broke-down shack no thanks to Jay Hugh


[Chorus]
D F
And at night he cried, Lord, I don't always do my best
G D Am
Please forgive the way I am I'm just a better sinner...than the rest


[Instrumental]
Am Am


[Verse 3]
Am
One night while out wandering he stumbled to the ground
E7 Am
The lawman came and picked him up just outside of town

Too much booze and liquor was what the lawman claimed
E7 D Am
So they took him to that one-room jail where he'd meet his fate


[Instrumental]
Am Am


[Verse 4]
Am
Dee Dee Mae she couldn't sleep a wink at all that night
E7 Am
It was a bitter cold December that the air just wouldn't hide

With the matches that they left for him while shivering in the cold
E7 D Am
He built that fire to keep him warm it raged out of control


[Chorus]
D F
And at night he cried, Lord, I don't always do my best
G D
Please forgive the way I am I'm just a better sinner
D F
Oohh help Lord, I don't always do my best
G D Am
Please forgive me I'm your child-- I'm just a better sinner...than the rest

[Verse 5]
F G
Oh, accident or suicide the mystery's still unsolved
F C E
Rumor soon got spread around that night he hadn't touched a drop
F G
And that old jailhouse still stands today off the old one ninety-five
F C G D Am
You can hear the haunting echoes as my great-grand daddy fought for his life


[Instrumental]
Am F G D


[Outro]
Am
Dee Dee Mae they called her, was the bride of O. Jay Hugh
E7 Am
He made her a widow at the age of forty-two
