[Verse 1]
         G
Well when I was young my momma read me
C
Nursery rhymes beside my bed
G
  And though they sounded mighty fine
     D
They made no sense to me
G
  But now that I am all grown up
   C
It seems my life has changed as such
G
  So I went out and made me up
  D                 G
A nursery Rhyme for me

[Chorus]
N.C.
It goes bar light, bar bright
C
First bar that I see tonight
  G
I wish I may I wish I might
D
Find someone to hold me tight
G
  Hey diddle diddle, a man with a fiddle
        C
And the girls sing along with the tunes
     G
Just one more dance til you turn out the lights
            D         G
And you can shut down this saloon

[Verse 2]
       G
Well I never understood how a big old gal
      C
Could raise no kids in a shoe
     G
And any old Jack goes jumping a candle
         D
Needs to find something better to do
    G
And rub a dub dub, three men in a tub
     C
Sure sounds kind of funny to me
     G
So I made up a honky tonk nursery rhyme
             D             G
and it's the only one I'll sing

[Chorus]
N.C.
It goes bar light, bar bright
C
First bar that I see tonight
  G
I wish I may I wish I might
D
Find someone to hold me tight
G
  Hey diddle diddle, a man with a fiddle
        C
And the girls sing along with the tunes
     G
Just one more dance til you turn out the lights
            D         G
And you can shut down this saloon
