Intro 1
(D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (A flat major)
Verse 1
Well, I quit my job (D flat major) down at the car wash
Left my mama a goodbye note
By sundown I'd left Kingston
With my guitar under my coat
I hitchhiked all (G flat major) the way down to Memphis
Got a room at the YMCA
For the (D flat major) next three weeks,
I went huntin' them nights
Just lookin' for a place to play
Well, I (A flat major) thought my pickin'
would set 'em on fire
But nobody (G flat major) wanted
to hire a guitar man (D flat major) (A flat major)

Verse 2
Well, I nearly 'bout (D flat major) starved
to death down in Memphis
I run outta money and luck
So I bought me a ride down to Macon,
Georgia on a overloaded poultry truck
I thumbed on (G flat major) down to Panama City
Started pickin' out some o' them all night bars
(D flat major) Hopin' I could make myself a dollar
Makin' music on my guitar
I got the (A flat major) same old story at them all night piers
There (G flat major) ain't no room around here
for a guitar man (D flat major)
We don't need a guitar man, son
Chorus 1
So I (G flat major) slept in the hobo jungles
Roamed a thousand miles of track
Till I found (D flat major) myself in Mobile Alabama
At a club they call Big Jack's
A little (G flat major) four-piece band was jammin'
So I took my guitar and I sat in
I (E flat major) showed 'em what a band would sound like
With a (A flat major) swingin' little guitar man
Interlude 1
Show 'em, son
(D flat major) (D flat major) (G flat major) (G flat major)
(D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major)
Solo 1
(D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major)
(G flat major) (G flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major)
(A flat major) (G flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (A flat major)
Verse 3
So if you ever take a (D flat major) trip down to the ocean
Find yourself down around Mobile
Oh, make it on out to a club called Jack's
If you got a little time to kill
Just (G flat major) follow that crowd of people
You'll wind up out on his dance floor
(D flat major) Diggin' the finest little five piece group
Up and down the Gulf of Mexico
(A flat major) Guess who's leadin' that five-piece band
Well, (G flat major) wouldn't ya know,
Interlude 2
it's that swingin' little guitar
(D flat major) (man) (D flat major) (G flat major) (G flat major)
(D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major)
Outro 1
(D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major)
(G flat major) (G flat major) (D flat major) (D flat major)
