Big Mouth Blues Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A]Oh,[D]
[A][D]
[A]Well, [D]I was born in a little bitty tar hut
And they called me a man
'cause I couldn't
Keep my big, big [G]mouth shut
So what's the sense of me
sitting here leaving
When [D]any ole day I might be even
And [G]Lord knows that New
York City's got
[D]A lot to do with it
I [G]wish someday I could find the way
To get it [D]out of my grain
This [G]dirty old town's
gonna sink right down
And [D]I don't want to go with it
Well I [A]wish there was a way that
I knew to get even
A way to get a lick in
A bobbin' and a weavin'
Any ole thing besides
goin' and a leavin'

[Interlude 1]
You can do on a train
[D]
[A]Well, I

[Verse 2]
[D]once knew a man who sailed around
The world twice
He would have made it three but he took
A lot of bad advice
[G]So you just tell me what's
the sense of me
Sittin' here leavin'
When [D]any ole day I might get even
And [G]Lord knows New York City's got
A [D]lot to do with it
I [G]wish someday I could
find a way to get it [D]out
Of my brain
This [G]dirty old town's
gonna sink right down
And [D]I don't want to go with it
I [A]wish there was a way that
I knew to get even,
Way to get a lick in
A 'bobbin' and a'weavin'
Any ole thing besides
goin' and a'leavin'
You can do on [D]a train

[Interlude 2]
Oh, yes
[D][G]
[A][D]
[G]
[A][D]

[Verse 3]
Well, I [D]once knew a man who sailed around
The world twice
But his motor cooled down
and now he's
Deliverin' [G]ice
Tell me what's the sense of him
Sittin' here leavin'
When [D]any ole day he might get even
And [G]Lord knows New York City's got
A [Dm]lot to do with it
[D]I w[G]ish someday he could
find a way to get it [D]out
Of his brain
This [G]dirty old town's
gonna sink right down
And [D]I don't want to go with it
I [A]wish there was a way that
I knew to get even
Way to get a lick in
A 'bobbin and a'weavin'
And all the things besides
goin' and a'leavin'
You can do on [D]a train

[Outro 1]
