Waylon Jennings - Up In Arkansas guitar tab

*************** UP IN ARKANSAS ****************

written by Tony Joe White and Ricky Ray Rector

performed by Waylon Jennings.

Capo on the 2nd fret.

Verse 1:

E

Got me a rocker without no arms

Ol' wood stove to keep me warm

My firewood out of the rain

I sit and watch the seasons change

Verse 2:

E

There's a woman in Little Rock

Got plenty of money down in her sock

She come to see me time to time

We sit on the porch and drink our wine

Bridge 1:

A E

A man ought to know when he's got it all

A E

Holding it down up in Arkansas

Verse 3:

E

Coyotes howl in the night

The rats ate my food but that's alright

They must have needed it more than me

Ain't no sweat i'll eat their cheese

Bridge 2:

A E

Way back in the woods a hoot-owl calls

A E

Making his rounds up in Arkansas

Verse 4:

E

The eagle flies wild and free

Catches fish down in my creek

I watch him rise on the breeze

I don't bother him he don't bother me

Verse 5:

Walmart moves into town

Progress can't keep it down

Tourists come from miles around

I sit on the porch,the sun goes down

Bridge 3:

A E

But i live way back from it all

A E

Doing alright up in Arkansas
