Intro:  G Gadd4 G5 Gadd4 G5 Gadd4 G
        (played twice)

Verse:  Em                      G5
        There's a Yankee in the Cumberland
        Em                   G5
        With a pistol in his boot
        Em             G5
        Dreamin' about salty water
                 D
        And he's lookin for a snake to shoot


Chorus:                 G             Gadd4  G5 Gadd4
        I'm thinkin' it won't get any worse
                           G5           Gadd4     G     Gadd4
        I'm thinkin' about buyin' you a hat and a purse
                      G   Gadd4/add9 G5

        I'm wishin' I never  came    here
                    G5       Gadd4  G
        You know my heart was ever sincere

        And every now and then I realize
        You are rhythm you are melody
        Giving me that silent torture
        You might as well poison my tea

        I'm thinkin' it won't get any worse
        I'm thinkin' about buyin' you a hat and a purse
        I'm thinkin' about strangling you
        You know that never was more untrue

        (Thinkin' about predestination
         Predestination and free will
         What about that wonderful plan)

        There's a Christian underneath his house
        Trying to recall the light
        He's prayin' for divine intervention
        His lips are frozen to the pipe
        (are frozen to the pipe)

        I'm thinkin' it can't get any worse
        I'm thinkin' about buying you a hat and a purse
        I'm dreamin' about thrilling you
        Oh honey my heart was never more true
        You know my heart was never more true



   Notes:
   Pretty straight forward. Listen to the album for the rhythm. Some of
   the chords maybe in the wrong places, I apologize. Not really a whole
   ton of odd effects here other than some distortion. (courtesy of Mike
