Lord Have Mercy On a Country Boy
guitar tabs lyrics
Intro: D G D A D Bm G A D
D A D
Well I grew up wild and free
G D A D
Walkin- these fields in my bare feet
D A D
There wasn-t no place I couldn-t go
G D A D
With a twenty-two rifle and a fishing pole
CHORUS:
G D A D
Well I live in the city but don-t fit in
Bm G A D
You know its a pity the shape I-m in
G D A D
Well I got no home and I got no choice
Bm G A D
Oh Lord, have mercy on a country boy
Fill: G D A D Bm G A D
D A D
When I was young I remember well
G D A D
I-d hunt the wild turkey and the bob-white quail
D A D
The river was clear and deep back then
G D A D
And fishin- lines tied to the willow limb
Chorus
D A D
Well they dammed the river, they dammed the stream
G D A D
They cut down the cypress and the sweet gum trees
D A D
There-s a laundra- mat and a barber shop
G D A D
And now the whole meadow is a parkin- lot
Chorus 2X
Bm G A G D A D Bm G A D
Oh Lord, have mercy on a country boy
