STAY ALL NIGHT (AND DON'T GO HOME)

G.....................................................
I'm water-bound and I can't get around
D.................................................
Water-bound and I can't get around
G..........................................C....
Water-bound and I can't get around
G..........D.....G..
Down in Alabam'
Won't you stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Down in Alabam'

I got me a wife, I got me a tent
I got me a wife, I got me a tent
Pay no bills, pay no rent
Down in Alabam'
Won't you stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Down in Alabam'

That greenback dollar's good as gold
That greenback dollar's good as gold
Take 'em when they're young, take 'em when they're old
Down in Alabam'
Won't you stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Down in Alabam'

Well the bridge is up and I can't get across
Bridge is up and I can't get across
Bridge is up and I can't get across
Down in Alabam'
Won't you stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Down in Alabam'

Rooster crowin' in the old pine pen
Rooster crowin' in the old pine pen
Rooster crowin' in the old pine pen
Down in Alabam'
Won't you stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Down in Alabam'

I'm water-bound and I can't get around
Water-bound and I can't get around
Water-bound and I can't get around
Down in Alabam'
Won't you stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Stay all night and don't go home
Down in Alabam'

Pitts and I do this tune, I'll try to get a tab up how we play it. We do it in GDGD, but yeah it's should be AEAE.

Get it boys!

A great musician once said "Whenever you once decide that you're going to record a number, put everything you got into it. Because dont say oh we'll take it over and do it again because every time you go through you loose just a little something."

That great musician was Mr. Acuff.

WAY DOWN IN NORTH CAROLINA

Chickens a-crowin' in the old pine field (x3)
Way down in North Car'lina

Get up, Charlie, an' let's go home (x3)
Before the water rises

Water-bound and I can't go home (x3)
Way down in North Car'lina

The old man's mad and I don't care (x3)
Just so I get his daughter

If he don't give her up, we're gonna run away (x3)
And go to North Car'lina


Turn. It. UP.
