Tim Hus — Bakersfield Music

    	    	Вступление

[Chorus]
A
Drinkin' in a bar in Fort McMurray
                     E
Buck, and Merle, and me
The music on the jukebox
                   A
Brings us to Bakersfield
For every round there’s another town
                        D
And a barroom crowd somewhere
                          A
We’re all wishin’ we were long gone
    E                         A
And they’re wishin’ they were here

[Verse 1]
A
Merle is lookin’ mighty Haggard
                E
He can’t hardly sleep
The bottle turned him down
                         A
And the big city set him free
He got hung up on a woman
                       D
Now he’s in a world of pain
                    A
Today his favourite memory
   E          A
Is loving her again

[Chorus]

The music on the jukebox
                   A
Brings us to Bakersfield
For every round there’s another town
                        D
And a barroom crowd somewhere
                          A
We’re all wishin’ we were long gone
    E                         A
And they’re wishin’ they were here

[Verse 2]
 A
Buck is low ‘cause he is owin’
                E
On all kinds of debt
He’s got a pile of bills so high
                         A
He ain’t seen the bottom yet
Close up the honky-tonks
                            D
When his money comes in the mail
                    A
If he starts actin’ naturally
              E            A
You’ll have a tiger by the tail

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
     E
If a sad song could sing you home
D                        A
Merle would already have cried
    E
And Buck wouldn’t be down on the corner
D                      E       N.C.
Waitin’ in the welfare line
A
As for me, I'd still be here
                     D
I ain’t nothin’ like them
               A
I just like to hear the songs
   E                    A
It don’t matter where I am

[Chorus]

And they’re wishin’ they were here

We’re all wishin’ we were long gone
    E                         A
