Tabbed by: JFAREWELL
 
12 String Acoustic (quarter step down)
 
(Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb) will do fine
 
Really hard to understand the singing at the end so the last couple of lines may not be
right but I gave it a shot.

A                       G
Wanna tell ya 'bout the girl I love

And thrill her with every touch
A                           G          D (pause for a second)
I need to tell her shes the only one I really love

On Sunday morning when we go down to church

See the menfolk standing in line
A                     G
They say they come to pray to the Lord

When my little girl looks so fine

And in the evening when the sun is singing low

Everybody's with the one they love
A                    G
I walk the town keep searching all

around looking for my street corner girl

Verse 3
-------
A                     G
In the bars where the men who play guitars
          D                            D
Sit there drinking and rememberin' the times
A                      G
My little lover does a midnight shift
         D                 D
She fool around all of the time
A                              G
I guess there's just one thing left for me to do
      D                           D
Gonna pack my bags and move on my way
A                                    G                  D
'Cause I got a worried mind, sharing what I thought was mine
 
(Just talking here, no chords played)
Gonna leave her where the guitars play
