Intro 1
(G major) (E minor) (C major) (G major)
Verse 1
(G major) Baby, hello babe,
now (C major) ain't you glad to (G major) see
me once (C major) again?
Let me (G major) sit down in your (C major) easy chair
and (G major) tell you where I've (D major) been
I wro (G major) te you I was (C major) coming,
but it (G major) sort of slipped my mind (C major)
Now, (G major) what's that sizzling
sound (C major) I hear?
It smell (D major) s like ham, my (G major) friend
Get off the phone now,
(C major) you don't need to (G major) talk to preacher
Ben (C major) I (G major) know I said we'd (C major) marry,
but I (G major) didn't say just when (D major)
And I (G major) don't think I can (C major) sing the tune
that's (G major) playing on your mind (C major)
This (G major) marriage lifts a (C major) mountain,
I ain't quite (D major) that fit to climb (G major)
But I'd (A major) like to put my feet
beneath your (D major) table, honey babe
Lord (A major) knows that country
ham smells good afrain (D major)
And I'd (G major) like to hold you (C major) close
and (G major) kiss your lips again (C major)
But this (G major) marriage bit's a (C major) mouth
and I ain't quite (D major) bred fit
to climb (G major) (E minor) (C major) (G major)
You've got some brandy (C major) handy
honey I'd (G major) sure like (C major) a nip
That (G major) long walk down that (C major) hot road
didn't help (G major) my throat one (D major) bit
And if (G major) you don't mind,
I (C major) think I'll shave and (G major) then shampoo my head (C major)
Don't (G major) want to stain those
(C major) satin pillowcase (D major) s
on your bed (G major)
Oh, it's (A major) good to put my feet
beneath your (D major) table, honey babe
That (A major) almond red -eyed grape
is mighty fine (D major)
And it (G major) feels so good to (C major) hold you close
and (G major) kiss your lips again
(C major) But this (G major) marriage fits a (C major) mouth
like white (D major) red victory climb (G major) (E minor) (G major) (C major) (G major)
Well, I've been here
about a (C major) week now,
honey, (G major) babe, I better (C major) go
I (G major) got me a guitar (C major) pickin' job
way (G major) down to the (D major) low
And I'd (G major) fly instead of walkin' (C major)
if you'd (G major) loan me the plane (C major) fare
And a (G major) ten -spot chair
would (C major) help me
square away (D major) my things down (G major) there
It's (A major) been so good to put my feet
beneath (D major) your table, babe
That (A major) ham and red -eyed gravy
sure was (D major) fine
And I en (G major) joyed every minute
(C major) of my (G major) stay here, honey, (C major) babe
But this (G major) marriage bit's a (C major) mountain
I ain't quite (D major) fit to climb
