They've Stole My Steel Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Now I'm a
guitar picker,
[A]musician is my [D]trade
A [G]full -fledged union mem[D]ber,
Lord [E]knows where all I've [A]played
The [D]other day I left my things
in the [G]trunk of my old car
Would you believe some [D]dirty dog
[A]stole my steel guitar
[D]It's [G]just an old used show bud
for [D]which I saved and scraped
I [G]bought it back in Nashville
from a [D]cat whose name was [A]Drake
I [D]loved it like a woman
and I [G]cherished every wire
And I'd kill the man whose [D]sticky hands
[A]stole my steel [D]guitar[G][D][A][D]
I babied every pedal
and I pol[A]ished them each day
[D]Cause I had[G] the only sho[D]wbud
in [E]Podunk [A]Highway
I was [D]king of all the women
They [G]came from near and far
[D]But [G]the man sure did [D]stop it all
When he [A]stole my steel guitar
[D]It's [G]just an old used showbud
For [D]which I saved and scraped
I [G]bought it back in Nashville
[D]From a cat whose name was Drake
[A]I lov[D]ed it like a woman
I [G]cherished every wire
And I'd kill the man whose [D]sticky hands
[A]stole my steel gui[D]tar[G][D]
[A][D][G][D][A][D]
[G][D][A][D]
I could sound like Roy Wiggins,
Don [A]Helms and Jerry Bird
[D]I could mak[G]e it sing for[D]ever
and never [E]slur a [A]word
And [D]when I played like Emmons,
it [G]nearly [D]caught [G]on fire
[D]But [G]I can't play no har[D]lequins now,
they [A]stole my steel guitar
[D]It's [G]just an old used showboy
for [D]which I saved and scraped
I [G]bought it back in Nashville
from a [D]cat whose name was Drake
[A]Oh, I lov[D]ed it like my woman,
I [G]cherished every wire
And I'd kill the man whose [D]sticky hands
[A]Stole my steel guitar
