The Day Before Thanksgiving chords by 
Darrell Scott
N/A•
Verse 1
D
It's the day before Thanksgiving I'm not
G
D
feeling much of thanks*
Just a low- grade desperation
G
D
leaves me reeling in the ranks
Just when I think I'm getting somewhere
G
D
it's somewhere further to fall
It's the day before
Thanksgiving that is all
I don't believe the pilgrims sat
G
D
with Indians for a feast
A self- proclaimed holy sailor doesn't
G
D
break bread with his beast
Em
Bm
But then again he had a musket and the
G
Indian had a knife
F#m
And the musket man could make
G
D
G
D
him eat for life
G
I don't believe this country's
D
manifestering destiny
A
D
F#m
Someone just cooked it up and it
A
G
D
is fed to you and me
Em
They tell us who to love and
Bm
A
G
war and never ask for help
F#m
G
And they cannot stand us thinking
D
G
D
for ourselves
G
A
D
The day before Thanksgiving
Bm
G
D
back in
1991
Bm
A millionaire let me drive his
G
D
Mercedes just for fun
Em
And I drove it with the top down on
Bm
A
G
them Blue Ridge Mountain roads
F#m
He let me keep it thir
G
D
teen weeks or so
A
And I know what he was saying with
G
D
that car that wasn't mine
A
D
A
That I could have one too if I just
G
D
did not cross the line
Em
But lines were made for crossing
Bm
A
G
and I was born to crack the code
F#m
G
D
And there ain't no shame in walking down this road
Bm
G
D
A
Bm
G
D
Em
Bm
A
G
F#m
G
D
A
Bm
So it's turkey breast and stuffing
A
G
D
with gravy on the top
A
Bm
A
Mashed potatoes, peas and dinner rolls,
G
D
you use them like a mop
Em
Got my position at the table,
Bm
A
G
got a child to say my grace
F#m
And a wife and boss that keep
G
D
s me in my place
A
Bm
It's the day before Thanksgiving
A
G
D
I'm not feeling much of thanks
A
Bm
Just a low- grade desperation
A
G
D
leaves me reeling in the ranks
Em
Just when I think I'm getting somewhere
Bm
A
G
it's somewhere fur ther to fall
F#m
It's the day before
G
D
G
Thanksgiving that is all

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner
theNewPaul
“This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”
This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
Great to tune and play
