Don't Cuss The Fiddle

INTRO: D

    D                        
I scandalize my brother while 
admittin' that he sings some purty 
  G     G/F#    G
songs, and he does
     A7                 
I'd heard that he'd been 
scandalizin' me and Lord I knew that
            D    Dsus4   D
 that was wrong, and it was
        D                   
Now I'm lookin' at it older, 
somethin' cool and feelin' fool 
            G      G/F#   G
enough to see
     A7                            
What I had called my brother on now
                                D
 he had every right to call on me

D                             
Don't ever cuss that fiddle boy 
unless you want that fiddle out of 
   G
tune
       A7                       
That picker there in trouble boy 
ain't nothin' but another side of 
  D
you
       D                        
If we ever get to Heaven boys it 
ain't because we ain't done nothin' 
   G
wrong

   E                               
I found a wounded brother drinkin' 
                     A       Asus2
bitterly away the afternoon
   A

    B7                             
And soon enough he turned on me 
                                E
like he'd done every face in that 
     Esus4   E
saloon, yes he did
E                                 
Well we cussed him to the ground 
and said he couldn't even steal a 
      A     Asus2 A
decent song
     B7                          
But soon as it was spoken we were 
sad enough to wish that we were 
  E
wrong


CHORUS:
E                             
Don't ever cuss that fiddle boy 
unless you want that fiddle out of 
   A
tune
      B7                        
That picker there in trouble boy 
ain't nothin' but another side of 
  E
you
E                                 
And if we ever get to Heaven boys 
it ain't because we ain't done 
         A
nothin' wrong
      B7                           
We're in this gig together so let's
 settle down at steal each other's 
 E
songs

  B7                             
I know that it sounds silly but I 
think that I just stole somebody's 
  E     Esus4  E
song
