[D]Mr. Jefferson [Eb]Lord,

That [C]soothing har[D]mony,

Play that [Eb]string,
just to please me [G]again[Gaug]
[G]Cause mister, whe[Eb]n you stop that finer part
I feel your fingers slipping
and a grip in [D]my heart
[C#]Oh L[D]ord, p[G]lay [Bm]that[D]

[D]Down [B]in that [Em]great big red scala,
[B]where a [Em]musical fella
[C]By [Ebdim]the name [Em]of Bill Jef
[Eb]ferson [C]Lord
[Em]Played piano while he'd [D]sing a song
He'd just sang and played the
[G]whole night long
[D]Till [B]one night a [Em]starry [Eb]-eyed lady,
they called [Edim]Lovable [Em]Sadie
Heard him playing that
[B]barbershop chord
[Em]When he finished, Sadie [D]drew a sigh
Every time that she would [G]catch his eye,
she'd cry
Mr. [D]Jackson, [Eb]Lord,
Mr. Jackson, Lord
Play that barbershop chord,
[G]play that barbershop chord
That [C#dim]soothing har[D]mony
It makes an [G]awful, awful, awful [C]hit with [G]me
Oh, [Eb]play that string,
just to please me [G]again
Cause, [Eb]when you stop that minor part
I feel your fingers slippin'
and a -grippin' [D]my heart
[G]Oh, [D]Lord,
[Fdim]play tha[D]t barbershop chord[G][Em]
[G]Mr. Jef[Eb]ferson, Lord,

[G]that [Edim]stir ri[Eb]ng har[D]mony,
it makes an [G]aw ful, awful, awful [C]hit with [G]me,
play that [Eb]string, play that string,
just to hear me again,
[G]just to hear me again.
Because, mister,
[Eb]when you start that minor part
I'll feel your fingers slippin'
and a grip in [D]my heart
Oh [C#]Lord, [Abdim]play that[D]
barbershop [G]chord
