Kentucky Pool

   D                           G                         D
Well a faint silhouette to my left, fainter still to my right
                                  A                        D
Even the searchlights long white spear cant find the buoys tonight
                                G
Running right where I thought I should be running, but some-how I got
        D
turned around.
                                    D                A
All the time I thought I was going up-river, I was really going
  D
down.

[Chorus]
    G                            D
Kentucky pool made a fool out of me,
                                G
I thought I was running on the Tennessee River,
                       D
It must be the deep blue sea.

[Verse]
                           G                           D
Well a dagblamed bluegrass picker has got no business afloat,
                       G
Needs to be somewhere playing this fiddle instead of trying to
  A         D
steer this boat.
                            D                            D
The captain is on the deck below..he will soon becoming upstairs,
                             G                              D
Ive been listening for Channel 13, and his footsteps on the stairs

[Chorus]
    G                            D
Kentucky pool made a fool out of me,
                                G
I thought I was running on the Tennessee River,
                       D
It must be the deep blue sea.

[Verse]
    D                         G                                D
Well the radios nothing but static, and cold as a knife I can feel
                               G                         A
The rains coming over the breastboard and the chart fell down
           D
behind the wheel.
                                         G
I may be getting ready to run over this buoy, while trying to find
    D
the next.
                                      G
Ive been praying to God, and Captain Weigh, I dont have no
    A       D
steamboat wreck

[Chorus]
    G                            D
Kentucky pool made a fool out of me,
                                G
I thought I was running on the Tennessee River,
                       D
It must be the deep blue sea.
 G        A                 D
And its raining, raining on me........
