I'll Change Your Flat Tire, Merle Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]As I d[G]rove down on 65, I was
[C]cruisin' down that old
Grapevine
Well, I [G]must have been doin'
at least [D]about 95
Well out [G]there on the side of
the road all broke down
And
[C]Who do you think was standin' around
But [G]the greatest country [D]singer [G]alive!

[Verse 2]
I'll fix your [G]flat tire Mer[C]le
Don't ya [D]get your sweet country
pickin' fingers all
Covered with [G]erl
Cause you're a honky, I know,
but [C]Merle you got soul
And [D]I'll fix your flat tire [G]Merle

[Verse 3]
Well [G]I hear you had an adventurous youth,
[C]makin' love
In a telephone booth
And [G]I even hear you did
a little stretch [D]in jail
But [G]now you got a big ranch
house with a bar
And [C]eight, nine, ten of them fancy cars
[G]And every other little check

[Verse 4]
comin' in the mail
[G]I'll fix your flat tire Mer[C]le
Don't ya [D]get your sweet country
pickin' fingers all
Covered with [G]er l
Cause you're a honky, I know,
but [C]Merle you got soul
And [D]I'll fix your flat tire Mer[G]le

[Verse 5]
[G]Now[C][D]
[G][C][D]
[G]I heard all them records ya did,
[C]makin' fun of us
Long haired kids
And [G]now ya know we don't
care [A]what [D]ya think... Merle,
[G]If you're gonna call
the world your home
Ya know [C]you're gonna have
to get out and get stoned
An[G]' it's better with [D]a joint
than with [G]a drink, I think

[Verse 6]
So [G]I'll fix your flat tire Mer[C]le
Don't ya [D]get your sweet country
pickin' fingers all
Covered with [G]er l
Cause you're a honky, I know,
but [C]Merle you got soul
[D]And I'll fix your flat tire M[G]erle
So [D]I'll fix your flat tire Mer[C]le
