Verse 1
(D major) Grandpa
August
Winesap painted the house he (G major) lived in red, (D major)
and green, and purple, and orange.
It looked like something in between
a bad hangover and a big
Easter egg. (G major)
(D major) Grandpa was 83 years (G major) old last
December, (D major) and he was more
than fond to wit a bunch.
The day before yesterday, I saw
Grandpa down at the courthouse
(G major) counting (D major) out two dollars
and (A major) pennies to buy this
here marriage license.
He cut (G major) a mighty handsome figure (D major) standing there in (A major) his green hat, (D major)
this here yellow shirt (A major) with
them big blue roses all over (D major) it.
I said,
Grandpa, how come it took you so long
to make up your mind (A major) to marry
Whit a bunch?
Grand (G major) pa
Winesap looked up at me with them 83
-year -old eyes and (D major) said,
Well, it's just that a feller needs time
to get all of his bluesin' done.
(B flat major) I (D major) never did ask
Grandpa what bluesin' was.
Next time I see him, I think I will.
And maybe someday I'll even get around to askin'
him why he painted his house all them colors. (A major) (D major) (A major) (D major)
Billy got a rooster and
Sally got a hen,
Billy (G major) got a rooster and
Sally got a hen, (D major)
Billy got a rooster and
Sally got a hen.
They don't know (G major) what's
the matter with them.
(D major) Both of them got big red spots
on both of them
Woman, don't you talk
to me in my bad ear
Woman, (G major) don't you talk to
me in my bad (D major) ear
Woman, don't you talk to me in my bad ear
I can't hear (G major)
Way down here (D major)
I'm blue (G major)
Old blues, (A major) just blues (D major) (G major) in' (D major) (A major)
Woman (D major) gotta walk like a duck
(A major) on a barbed wire (D major) fence
Woman (G major) gotta walk like a duck on a
barbed wire fence (D major) (D minor) (D major)
Woman gotta walk like a duck
on a barbed wire fence
Try to tell me (G major) she got good sense (D major)
Talk (D minor) about (D major) somebody
(B flat major) don't (D major) know nothin'
She don't suspect nothin'
What she got, you can't get for free
What (G major) she got, you can't get for free (D major)
What she got, you can't get for free
Sunday pa (G major) per and the misery
(D major) And a lifetime subscription to (G major) (D major) the
Tulsa
Tribune
I'm (G major) blue, oh blue, (A major) just bluesin' (G major) (D major) (A major)
Woman, (D major) better shut up,
you don't do nothing but talk
Woman, (G major) better shut up,
you don't do nothing but talk (D major)
Woman, better shut up,
you don't do nothing but talk
Gonna mess around, (G major)
have to get out and (D major) walk
And it's a long journey into the
darkness tonight, child
Well, I'm (G major) bluesin', oh,
bluesin', (A major) just bluesin'
(D major) Thank
Outro 1
