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