should be right but maybe not. someone correct it if it's not.

chords:

verse-
D G D
D E D
D G D
E A

chorus-
D G D
E A
D (add an A then back to D at the end) sounds better




let it alone-

while traveling through this big eyed world it'll sometimes ask of you
to give advice at certain times and tell folks what to do
well at this time i'm gonna tell you what's the wisest plan
when it comes to mixing in with things that you just don't understand..hmmm

chorus:
let it alone
let it alone
if it don't concern you
let it alone
don't go around puting on airs
and meddling in other folks affairs
if you don't know say so
mind your own business and let it alone

well you see two people fighting a man and woman say
you think that it's a crime for them to carry on that way
well you think that you could stop that route but just as you draw nie
the lady with the poker strikes the gentelman across the eye

chorus:
let it alone
let it alone
if it don't concern you
let it alone
they know their business alright alright
they practice that-a-way every night
there's no butting in they'll break your chin so
mind your own business and let it alone

-fiddle solo-

well you say that love's against you and on your weary way
and lying in the gutter a drunken man will say
he's lying in the gutter and you can tell that he's all in
but on his necktie plainly gleams a great big diamond pin

chorus:
let it alone
let it alone
he's not your pal so
let it alone
the man is drunk it may be true but the diamond don't belong to you
so shut your eyes and ease some sighs turn around and beat it and leave it alone

I think it is "errs" ,like in error, instead of heirs.

i think it's "airs" not "errs."

airs-- An affected, often haughty pose; affectation.

that makes even more sense. i guess either way...errs...and airs sound very similar. i also thought originally it could have been "ears" but they were pronouncing it like "errs or airs".

Don't go around putting on ears and meddling in other folks affairs
-people listening to others conversations

hard to decide which to go with
