Jerry Reed - Guitar Man guitar chord

Tabbed By: Emrldeyzs

VERSE 1:

D7

Well, I quit my job down at the car wash,

Left my mama a goodbye note,By sundown I'd left Kingston,

With my guitar under my coat,

G7sus4 G7

I hitchhiked all the way down to Memphis,

Got a room at the YMCA,

D7

For the next three weeks I went huntin' them nights,

Just lookin' for a place to play,

A7

Well, I thought my pickin' would set 'em on fire,

G7 D7 G7

But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man.

VERSE 2:

D7

Well, I nearly 'bout starved to death down in Memphis,

I run outta money and luck,

So I bummed me a ride down to Macon, Georgia,

On a overloaded poultry truck,

G7sus4 G7

I thumbed on down to Panama City,

Started pickin' out some of them all night bars,

D7

Hopin' I could make myself a dollar,

Makin' music on my guitar,

A7

Got the same old story at them all night piers,

G7 D7

There ain't no room around here for a guitar man

SPOKEN: We don't need a guitar man, son

G7

So I slept in the hobo jungles,

Roamed a thousand miles of track,

D7

Til I found myself in Mobile Alabama,

In a club they call Big Jack's,

G7

A little four-piece band was jammin',

So I took my guitar and I sat in,

E7

I showed 'em what a band would sound like,

A7

With a swingin' little guitar man.

SPOKEN: Show 'em, son

D7

If you ever take a trip down to the ocean,find yourself down around Mobile,

Make it on out to a club called Jack's, If you got a little time to kill,

G7sus4 G7

Just follow that crowd of people,You'll wind up out on his dance floor,

D7

Diggin' the finest little five-piece group,Up and down the Gulf of Mexico,

A7 G7

Guess who's leadin' that five-piece band, Well, wouldn't ya know,

D7 G7 D7

it's that swingin' little guitar man.
