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