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