[Each chord is half of a 4/4 measure.]

this in Drop D tuning. I don't know whether or not this affects any of
the chord fingerings.]D D G A D D G A D D D D[intro]

You can't depend on anything really, there's no promises, there's no point

There's no good, there's no bad, in this dirty little joint

No dope-smoking, no beer sold after 12 o'clock

Mr. Johnson sings over in a corner by the bar

Man running through the grass outside says he wants to take up serpents
Says he will drink the deadly thing, and it will not hurt him
House rules, no exceptionsNo bad language, no gamblin', no fightin'
Sorry, no credit, don't askBathroom wall reads: Is God the answer? Yes
Too cool to be forgotten, hey hey, too cool to be forgotten

I had a lover, I, I thought he was mineThought I'd always be his valentine
Leaning agianst the railing of a Lake Charles bridge
Overlooking the river, leaning over the edge
He asked me, "baby, would you jump into the water with me?"
I told him, "no way, baby, that's your own death, you see"
Too cool to be forgotten, hey hey, too cool to be forgotten
June bug versus hurricaneJune bug versus hurricane, hey heyHey heyHey hey
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official LUCINDA WILLIAMS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
