Let The Loose End Drag Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Just a lit[Gm]tle ol' boy abo[G]ut twelve years old,
working on my daddy's [D]farm
Gotta help him [Am]build an ol' [D]chicken coop,
gotta help him paint [G]the barn
I was carryin' a load 'bout twice my size,
not quite enough to [C]brag
[D]Papa just [A]smiled and looked at [D]me and said
"Son let the loose [G]end [Ab]drag"[Am]
[G]Son

[Verse 2]
[C]let the loose end drag
[G]Son let the loose end drag
[D]Papa just smiled and
looked at me and said
Son let the loose end [G]drag

[Verse 3]
When I [G]got to be a man I started makin'
plans to get me all the love that I [D]can
I was sitting in a bar getting pretty far
with a honey on my right [G]hand
When up stepped a stud he was looking for blood
'cause the lady didn't come in [C]stag
When [D]you're caught in the middle you can bet your life that
it'll be "Honey let the loose [G]end [Ab]drag"[Am][G]

[Verse 4]
[C]Honey let the loose end drag
[G]Honey let the loose end drag
When [D]you're caught in the middle you
can bet your life that it'll be
Honey let the loose end [G]drag

[Interlude 1]
[G][Gm][G][D]
[G]

[Verse 5]
Now my [G]life is [Gm]almost done [G]every day I tell my son,
the words my daddy handed down to [D]me
You gotta hang on very [Am]tight to [D]the things you know are [Am]right,
let [D]the fly- by- night things [G]be
When the Devil calls your name and he says he won the game,
and you know there ain't no turning [C]back
When [D]he says you're gonna [A]die, [D]you just spit right in his eye,
and don't let the loose [G]end [Am]drag
[C]I ain't

[Verse 6]
gonna let the loose end drag
I ain't [G]gonna let the loose end drag
When [D]he says you're gonna die, you just spit right in his eye,
and [G]don't [C]let the loose end drag
I ain't [G]gonna let the loose [D]end drag
