Jimmy Buffett - Semi-true Story guitar chord

Semi-True Story

by Mac McAnally

D D

Notes in intro A G F# D C# D A G F E D C D

A D

With his head out the sunroof, and his heart in the right place

A D

Plan B was foolproof, he drove off to her place.

G Bm

Yelled out his feelings, among other stuff

C D A D

It was too much tequila, or not quite enough.

C D A D

It was too much tequila, or not quite enough.

Chorus

G D A D

Its a semi-true story, believe it or not.

G D D D/C# D/B D

I made up a few things and there's some I for-got.

G D A D/B

But the life and the tellin' are both real to me

C G G A

And they all run together and turn out to be,

G D

A semi true story

Intro with notes A G F# D C# D A G F E D C D

Well the picture is fuzzy and the details are sordid.

It was on the same day "God's Own Drunk" was recorded.

A walkin' tall sheriff and big cadillac,

And me in my golf shoes on the hood makin' tracks,

This darin' young singer was under attack.

Chorus

G D A D

Its a semi-true story, believe it or not.

G D D D/C# D/B D

I made up a few things and there's some I for-got.

G D A D/B

But the life and the tellin' are both real to me

C G G A

And they all run together and turn out to be,

G D

A semi true story

Bridge

F G

Well the things That I've lived and I've dreamed and I've seen, and I've heard

F D

You take the good with the bad and be glad to have every word

Last Chorus

G D A D

Its a semi-true story, believe it or not.

G D D D/C# D/B D

I made up a few things and there's some I for-got.

G D A D/B

But the life and the tellin' are both real to me

C G G A

And they run like the rain all the way to the sea,

G D

A semi true story --- Outro same as Intro (twice)
