[Intro 1]
[Em][D][Esus4][D][C][Em][D][Esus4][Em][D][C][D][Em]

[Verse 1]
Man
sits on [D]the porch and taps his [C]feet[Em][D][Esus4]
[Em]Strikes his old string box i[D]n
the sultry [C]heat[Em][D]
[Em]Like a [C]million times [Em]before [D]he kicks
the red dust from [Em]the floor
[C][D][Em]

[Verse 2]
[C]
[Em]Well, he scuffs the wood and his fin[D]
gers pick up [Em]pace[C][Em][D]
[Em]He stretches out and scowl[D]s with
each new [C]phrase[Em][D]
[Em]Like [C]a million times before [D]he holds her close
until the [Esus4]dawn
[Em][C][Em][Esus4][Em]

[Verse 3]
[C]
[D]Come on, pla[G]y her in the eve[D]n
ing long and [Em]loud[D]
[G]Rest her in the [D]morning when
[G]she's [Em]down[D]
[G]Play her when good comrades
[D]come [Em]around
[D]She's a f[Em]ading sound

[Verse 4]
[Em]
Shrill as the wind [D]the fiddle
makes her [Em]cry[C][Em][D]
With [Em]a flourish and [D]a fable
in the [C]night[Em][D]
[Em]Like a [C]million times [D]before we can
see her figure [Em]soar
[Esus4][Em]

[Verse 5]
[C]
[Em]Come on, play [G]her in the
[D]evening long and [Em]loud[D]
[G]Rest her in the [D]morning
when she's [Em]down[D]
[G]Play her when good com
[D]rades come [Em]around
[D]She's a f[Em]ading sound
[C][Em][C][Em]

[Verse 6]
[C]The [Em]sing[D]le t[Em]one [C]of[Em]
[D]reeds it fills the [Em]air[C][Em][D]
These shak[Em]ing,
sharpening [D]lips they do de[Em]clare[C]
[Em]Like[D] a m[Esus4]elody be[Em]fore as th[C]ose[D]
notes begin [Em]to r[C]oar[D][Esus4][C]
[Em]Come on,

[Verse 7]
[G]play her in the
[D]evening long and [Em]loud[D]
[G]Rest her in the [D]morning when
[G]she's [Em]down[D]
[G]Play her when good comrades
come [D]around[Em]
[D]She's a f[Em]ading sound
