Mel Tillis - Sawmill guitar chord

Sawmill

(Mel Tillis)

G C

Once I was a slave at the sawmill

G

Talk about a poor boy,

Talk about a poor boy

C G

Let me have a dollar bill

C

My work was so hard at the sawmill

G

Talk about a poor boy,

Talk about a poor boy

C G

Let me have a dollar bill

C

See my teardrops falling down

My wife left this sawmill town

D7

She said sawmill's life had been a sin

The gravy were much too thin

G C

I can't work no more at the sawmill

G

Talk about a poor boy, talk about a poor boy

C G

Let me have a dollar bill

C

If you take your wife to the sawmill

G

How you gonna please her,

How you gonna please her

C G

When she wants a dollar bill

She'll run away and leave you at the sawmill

Women like a dollar,

Women like a dollar.

Yes and women always will.

See my teardrops falling down

My wife left this sawmill town

She said sawmill's life had been a sin

The gravy were much too thin.

I can't work no more at the sawmill

Yes and women like a dollar,

yes and women like a dollar

Yes and women always will
