[Verse 1]
Well on [D]a greyhound bound for
[G]Shreveport [D]I spent too long i[A]n my s[D]eat
We stopped off in a [G]no name
[D]town to grab a [A]bite to [D]eat
And [G]the ceiling fans they [D]hung above
a [G]screened in [D]patio
Crawfish hotter than [G]a chimney f[D]ire
the beer was [A]cheap and [D]cold
And [Bm]the bar maid smiled that [F#m]kind of
smile [G]that knocked me off my [A]stool
Said [D]hang around I'll [G]show you [D]things they
don't [A]teach in school

[D]Across the way an [G]old blues [D]man
was playing [A]on the [D]street
Well he moaned just like a [G]black and
[D]tan I found my[A]self a [D]seat
He sang [G]Lord he lives [D]above us and
the [G]devil sleeps be[D]neath
He growled it mean and [G]low between
[D]his three or fou[A]r gold teeth
[D]

[Verse 3]

[D]girl I dreamed of [A]a r[D]iverboat
Til a man in blue kicked [G]at my [D]shoe
said come on [A]boy let's [D]go
I said oh [G]officer [D]oh officer please
[G]don't take me to [D]jail
He said you can't sleep outside now [G]my hands
are [D]tied I knew that feeling [A]all too [D]well
He said [Bm]if you play in m[F#m]ust town

[G]got some room to [D]spare
Could you drop me off in [G]fort Smith
[D]sir well I've got [A]family [D]there
And he [Bm]barred the Jack on [F#m]that big black
Mack kicking [G]back I played [A]it cool
