Doug Supernaw - You Never Even Call Me By My Name guitar chord

YOU NEVER EVEN CALL ME BY MY NAME

Doug Supernaw

From the CD "Deep Thoughts From A Shallow Mind"

Writer: Steve Goodman

It was (C) all that I could (G) do to keep from (C) cryin'

Some(F)times it seems so useless to re(C)main

(F) You don't have to call me darlin', (C) darlin'

You never even (G) call me by my (C) name

You don't have to (G) call me Waylon (C) Jennings

And you don't have to (G) call me Charlie (C) Pride

And (F) you don't have to call me Merle (C) Haggard, any(Am)more

(D) Even though your on my fightin' (G) side

And I'll (F) hang around as long as you will (C) let me

And I never minded (G) standin' in the (C) rain (C7)

(F) You don't have to call me darlin', (C) darlin'

You never even (G) call me by my (C) name

Spoken:

Well, me and the Possum Eatin' Cowboys have been playin' this song for a long long

time out there on the road. It's a touching little Steve Goodman number 'bout trains

and trucks and mamas and prison and gettin' drunk. So anyway, me and the boys got

together and we asked Mr. David Allen Coe and a few of our other heros if they

wouldn't mind singing with us on what has proven itself to be the greatest country

western song.

Well, I was (C) drunk the day my (G) mom got outta (C) prison

And I went to pick her (G) up in the (C) rain

But, be(F)fore I could get to the station in my (No Chord) pickup truck

(D) She got runned over by a damned old (G) train (G7)

And I'll (F) hang around as long as you will (C) let me

And I never minded (G) standin' in the (C) rain (C7)

(F) You don't have to call me darlin', (C) darlin'

You never even (G) call me by my (C) name

You never even (G) call me

Now, I wonder why you don't (F) call me

Why don't you ever (G) call me by my (F) name

By my (C) name
