Key: A minor
Intro 1
G#m
Verse 1
we were scheduled to appear
At a little roadhouse called
C#
G#m
the Get Down Here
A cinder block building with
a hand -painted sign
Honk her down,
C#
G#m
D#
G#m
straddle in the county line
When the crowd rolled in
and were remarkably mixed
There were truckers, bikers, drifters
C#
G#m
and locals from the sticks
Each one meaner than a cougar in a cage
And the biggest one
C#
G#m
D#
G#m
swaggered right up to the stage
from David Allen Coe
gold Johnny Goldo
of Elvis on the shelf
C#
G#m
I let the guitar do the talking
Yeah the whole place started rockin'
G#m
And they just let the guitar do the talkin'
Verse 2
G#m
she was over in the corner
with a Cheshire smile
Best -lookin' thing for
C#
G#m
seventeen miles
Sittin' there makin' my cold beer sweat
I figured my chances were a
C#
G#m
long -shot bet
D#
Verse 3
G#m
that's heard every line
silver -tongued kind
A#
D#
Of getting that girl to dance
Yeah, the whole place started rockin'
G#m
And that pretty little thing started boppin'
D#
C#
No need to fuss, it stops quackin'
D#
G#m
C#
G#m
talking
G#m
Sometimes your point is hard to get heard
I just strap it on, tune it up, dig it in,
C#
B
open up my heart and soul
Yeah, the whole place started
C#
rockin'
Fingertips that weren't stoppin'
D#
C#
No need to fuss, stop squawkin'
G#m
G#m
Just let the guitar do the talkin'
