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