WON’T YOU COME HOME

I CRIED THE WHOLE NIGHT LONG

I’LL DO THE COOKIN’ HONEY

I KNOW I’M TO BLAME

BUT AINT THAT A SHAME

BILL BAILEY WON’T YOU PLEASE COME HOME

BILL BAILEY WON’T YOU PLEASE COME HOME.




Bill

From “Showboat” Music/Lyrics: Rogers and Hammerstein

6 7 5 6 6 6 -5 5 6 6
I used to dream that I would discover

5 -6 5 6 6 -8 7
The perfect lover someday.

8 -8 7 -7 -6 -7 -7 -8 -6-6
I knew I’d recognize him if ever

7 6 6 -7 5
He came ‘round my way.

6 6 -7 -7 -6 -7 -8 -8
I always used to fancy then

8 7 -7 -7 -7 -6 -7 6 -6 6
He’d be one of the god-like kind of men,

5 -5 6 -7 -7 -6 -7 6 5 5
With a giant brain and a noble head,

6 -6 -7 -8 -8
Like the heroes bold

7 7 -7 6 6
In the books I’ve read.

6 6 8 6 -6 8 -8 8 -8 8 -8
But along came Bill, who’s not the type at all.

6 7 -8 7 -8 7 -7 -6 -7 6 -6 6
You’d meet him on the street and never notice him.

-6 -5 5 -4 -7 6 -5 5
His form, his face, his manly grace

6 7 -8 8 8 -8 7 -7 7 -8 7 -7
Are not the kind that you would find in a statue.

-6 6 8 6 -6
And I can’t explain–

8 -8 8 -8 8 -8 6 7 5 -6
It’s surely not his brain that makes me thrill.

-6 7 -4 -5 -6 7 8 6 -6
I love him because, he’s wonderful

6 -6 7 -8 8 7
Because he’s just my Bill.

He can’t play golf or tennis or polo,
Or sing a solo, or row.
He isn’t half as handsome
As dozens of men I know.
He isn’t tall or straight or slim,
And he dresses far worse than Ted or Jim.
And I can’t explain whey he should be
Just the one, one, man in the world for me.
He’s just my Bill, and ordinary guy.
He hasn’t got a thing that I can brag about
And yet to be, upon his knee,
So comfy and roomy
Seems natural to me.
And I can’t explain–
It’s surely not his brain
That makes me thrill.
I love him because, he’s–I don’t know–
Because he’s just my Bill.

Bile Them Cabbage Down, down,
A E7

Turn them hoe-cakes `round.

Bile Them Cabbage Down
Verse
A
6 6 6 5 6 6
Went up to the mountain,
E7
6 5 6 6 6 5 -4
Just to give my horn a blow
A D
6 6 6 5 -5 -5 -5
Thought I heard my true love say
A E7 A
5 5 -4 -4 4
“Yonder comes my beau”

Took my gal to a blacksmith shop
To have her mouth made small
She turned around a time or two
And swallowed shop and all

Possum in a `simmon tree
Racoon on the ground
Racoon says”You son of a gun”
Shake some `simmons down

Some-one stole my old `coon dog
Wish they`d bring him back
He chases big hogs through the fence
And the little ones through the crack

Met a possum in the road
Blind as he could be
Jumped the fence and whipped my dog
And bristled up at me

Once I had an old grey mule
His name was Simon Slick
He`d roll his eyes and back his ears
And how that mule would kick

How that mule would kick
He kicked with his dyin` breath
He shoved his hind feet down his throat
And kicked himself to death




Bile Them Cabbage Down

5 5 5 5 -5 -5
Bile them cabbage down, down,

Is Bile em cabbage down.

Big Yellow Taxi (chromatic)

By Joni Mitchell
Key: E

6 5* 6 5* -6*
They paved par-a-dise
5* 6 6 -6* 6 3*
Put up a park-ing lot
6 -4 5* 6 -6* -4 -4 -6*
With a pink ho-tel, a bou-tique
-6*-6* 7* -6* 6 6
and a swing-ing hot spot

-8 -8 -8 7* -7 7* -8
Don’t it al-ways seem to go

That you don’t know what
6 5* 5* 6 3*
you’ve got til it’s gone
6 5* 6 5* -6*
They paved par-a-dise
-4 -6*-6* 7* 6 6
Put up a park-ing lot
-7-8 -8 -8 -8 -8
Shoo bop, bop, bop, bop
-7-8 -8 -8 -8 -8
Shoo bop, bop, bop, bop

They took all the trees
and put ‘em in a tree museum
And they charged all the people
a dollar and a half just to see ‘em

Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got til it’s gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Hey farmer, farmer, put away that DDT now
Give me spots on my apples but leave me the birds and the bees
(please!)

Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got til it’s gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Late last night I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man

Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got til it’s gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got til it’s gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot (3x)

And I just had to tag along
Each night I went to bed
With the sound in my head
And the dream was a song

And back out again
You know what they say about trains
But I’m tellin’ you
When that Memphis train came through
This ol’ world
Was not the same

Rid-ing in your lim-ou-sine
-3 -3 -3 -3 -3 3 2 -5
With your fine Park Av-en-ue clothes

Hey Y’all its Tin Min giving you Folk’s
Some old style traditional Country
The sort of songs we play on the
Cattle drive trail and campfires!!
So sit close to that fire and after a good chew
Take out our Mississippi tin sandwich and sit a spell!

Big Love

By Lindsey Buckingham
Fleetwood Mac
Key: Dm

3-34-3 3-34-3 3-34-3 3-34-3

3* 3* 3 -2 3-1
Look-in’ out for love
-1 -1 3* 3 3
In the night so still
-3 4 -5 -5 4 -3 4
Oh I’ll build you a king-dom
-2 3 3* 3 -2 -1
In that house on the hill
7* 7* 7 -6 7-6-5
Look-in’ out for love

-3-5 34-1 1-1-2

7* 7 7-6-5
Big, big love

-3-5 34-1

You said that you love me
And that you always will
Oh you begged me to keep you
In that house on the hill
Looking out for love
Big, big love

I wake up alone
With it all
I wake up
But only to fall

Looking out for love
Big, big love
Just looking out for love
Big, big love
