Hank Williams - Howlin’ At The Moon guitar chord

Howlin' At The Moon

Words and music by Hank Williams Sr.

C C7 F

I know there's never been a man in the awful shape I'm in

C D7 G7

I can't even spell my name, my heads in such a spin

C C7 F

Today I tried to eat a steak with a big old table spoon

C

You got me chasin' rabbits, walkin' on my hands

G7 C

And howlin' at the moon.

Well Sug, I took one look at you and it almost drove me mad

And then I even went and lost what little sense I had

Now I can't tell the day from night, I'm crazy as a loon

You got me chasin' rabbits, pullin' out my hair and howlin' at the moon.

Some friends of mine asked me to go out on a huntin' spree

'Cause there ain't a hound dog in this state that can hold a light to me

I eat three bones for dinner today, then tried to tree a 'Coon

You got me chasin' rabbits, scratchin' fleas and howlin' at the moon.

I rode my horse to town to day and a gas pump we did pass

I pulled 'im up and I hollered WHOA!, said fill 'im up with gas

The man picked up a monkey wrench and WHAM!, he changed my tune

You got me chasin' rabbits, spittin' out teeth and howlin' at the moon.

I never thought in this old world a fool could fall so hard

But honey baby, when I fell the whole world must have jarred

I think I'd quit my doggish ways if you'd take me for your groom

You got me chasin rabbits, pickin' out rings and howlin' at the moon.
