Yodeling Radio Joe Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [G]was [D]bor[G]n i[D]n a[G] mountain
shack many years ago.
[D]Soon as I could play a snack,
I joined the [G]radio.[C][G]
As soon [D]as I could play a snack,
I joined the radio.
[G]Long about last
Christmas, I thought that I'd be [D]wise.
I'd sneak back home to see the folks and
take them by sur[G]prise.
Oodle -dee, yodel -oodle -dee -dee [C]-dee,
yodel -oodle -dee [G]-dee -dee -yo.
I'd [D]sneak back home to see the
folks and yodel -ay -dee [G]-yo.
The station agent looked at
me and got there just at [D]dawn.
He said, some radio guy's been
here and all your folks are [G]gone.
Oodle -dee, yodel -oodle -dee -dee -dee,
yodel -oodle -dee -dee -dee -yo.
He [D]signed the whole
Blaine family up to join the radio.
[G]Now let this be a lesson from home,
don't ever [D]go.
Just what your folks are gonna
do, you never really [G]know.
They're apt to turn hillbilly,
run off and join a show.
[C]And [D]soon you'll hear them singing,
Ole, ole, dee [G]-oh.
Oodle -dee, oodle -dee, [C]oodle -dee, oodle -dee, -dee,
[G]oodle -dee, oodle -oh.
And [D]soon you'd hear them singing,
ole ole dee [G]oh,
There ain't another single soul
left in them there [D]hills,
They all joined the radio so they could pay their [G]bills,
Oh -de -dee, oh -de -do -de -dee -dee [C]-dee, oh
-de -dee -dee [G]-dee -dee -dee -oh,
Your
[D]Grandma,
Pap, and all the kids have joined the radio,
[G]Just what they're all a gonna do, don't ask me,
I don't [D]know,
Some of them can play and sing,
the rest won't have to [G]crow.
Oh -dee -dee -oh -dee -dee -dee [C]-dee -dee -dee
-dee -dee -dee [G]-dee -dee -oh.
But [D]all of them can yodel,
oh -dee -oh -dee -dee -dee [G]-dee -oh.
Now let this be a lesson from
home, don't ever [D]go.
Just what your folks are gonna
do, you never really [G]know.
They're apt to turn hillbilly,
run off and join a [C]show.
And [D]soon you'll hear them singing,
Ole, ole, dee [G]-oh.
Ole, ole, ole, ole, [C]ole, ole,
ole, [G]ole, ole, ole, ole.
And [D]soon you'll hear them singing,
Ole, ole, dee [G]-oh.
Yes, sirree.
Now let this be a lesson from
home, don't ever [D]go.
Just what your folks are gonna
do, you never really [G]know.
They're apt to turn hillbilly,
run off and [A]join a [F]show.
Soon [D]you'll hear them singing,
Ole ole dee [G]-oh,
Oh -de -lay, oh -de -lay,
[C]oh [G]-de -lay, -de -lay.[F][E]
[A]Soon you'll hear them singing,
Oh -de [D]-lay, oh -de -lay, oh [G]-de -lay.[C][G]
