Could someone please repost "Gimme Three Steps" by Lynrd Skynrd.

D D

I was cuttin the rug down at a place called 'The Jug'

A A

with a girl named Linda Lou

D D

When in walked a man with a gun in his hand

E A

he was looking for you know who.

D D

He said "Hey there fellow with the hair coloured yellow,

G E

watcha tryin' to proove?

D D

Cuz' this is my woman there and I'm a man who cares

A D

and this might be all for you"

(I said "excuse me!")

D D

I was scared and fearing for my life

A A

shaking like a leaf on a tree

D D

Cuz' he was lean and mean and big and bad, Lord,

E A

pointing that gun at me

D D

I said "wait a minute mister, I didn't even kiss her,

G E

don't want no trouble with you

D D

and I know you don't owe me but I wish you would let me

A D

ask one favour from you:

D D

Say won't you Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister,

A A

gimme 3 steps toward the door?

D D

Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister

A D

and you'll never see me no more."

(Guitar solo)

D D

O well the crowd cleared away and I began to pray

A A

and the water fell down to the floor

D D

and I'm telling you, son, it ain't no fun,

E A

staring straight down a fourty-four.

D D

Well, he turned and screamed at Linda Lou,

G E

and that's the break I was looking for

D D

and you could hear me screaming a mile away

A D

as I was headed out toward the door.

D D

Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister,

A A

gimme 3 steps toward the door?

D D

Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister

A D

and you'll never see me no more."

( I'm gonna get the hell out of Dodge)

I am a piano player, sorry I'm not able to write guitar-tabs,

so I wrote the chords just above the word where the new bar begins.

I hope this will help a little bit.. I am also interested in any

Lynyrd Skynyrd lyrics you have, because my english is too bad to

hear all the stuff from the records. I don't need no tabs, because

I can hear all the piano parts from the records (the language of

music is international, indeed) .. I just have problems with

the lyrics.

God bless ya',

Ulli
