VERSE:
F
Well I was 3 days short of pulling out of Kingsport
Bb F
I was headed down to Houston town
F
Had my guitar packed in a burlap sack
G C
For exploitin' my country sound
F
I bypassed Jackson, bypassed Memphis
Bb F
By the time I got to Arkansas
F
I'd a sold my car and that black guitar
C F
For anything cool and tall
PD-C HORUS:
Bb F
Well I pulled up to a neon sign on highway 49
Bb
Shut the engine down, took a look around
C
Then I stepped inside
CHORUS:
F
I asked that bouncer where I was
Bb
He said, son yer at Bill's
C
Honky tonk pickin', linedance kickin'
Razorback stickin', barbecue chicken
F
Laundromat Bar and Grill
VERSE:
F
Well I found old Bill sittin at the bar
Bb F
With a pistol and a change machine
F
He was dolin' out quarters to a waitress named Starr
G C
When I asked him if I could sing
F
He said, son go ahead if you brought yer guitar
Bb F
Then he pointed to the backstage door
F
Said, we don't allow original material
C F
'Less it's been done before
PD-C HORUS:
Bb
Well I hit the stage like a big mule train
F
Told the house band to play it in C
Bb
I sang the Tennessee Waltz, Kentucky Rain
C
And the one about the bird that's free
CHORUS:
F
Lead guitar was like a chainsaw
Bb
That fiddle like a power drill
C
At Bill's honky tonk pickin', linedance kickin'
Razorback stickin', barbecue chicken
F
Laundromat Bar and Grill
INSTRUMENTAL:
F Bb C C F
VERSE:
F
Well in the 10 short minutes I was up on stage
Bb F
Watched a biker punch a cowboys face
F
And with a perfect view I was wittness to
G C
The destruction of the whole dang place
F
It was long neck stems and white fringed hems
Bb F
Flying out of that dark saloon
F
And that mechanical bull was reduced in full
C F
To the safest place in the room
PD-C HORUS:
Bb
That punched drunk cowboy showed his wife
F
That his shirt was soaked with beer
Bb
She said, calm down honey, have another light
C
'Cause we can wash yer shirt right here
CHORUS:
F
Then the whole place stopped to thank me
Bb
For bookin' my show at Bill's
C
Honky tonk pickin', linedance kickin'
Razorback stickin', barbecue chicken
F
Laundromat Bar and Grill
OUTRO:
