Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

W. Nelson):

I scandalized my brother while admitting that he sang some pretty songs

I heard that he'd been scandilizing me and Lord i knew that that was wrong

Now i'm looking at over something cool and feeling fool enough to see

What i had called my brother,now he had every right to call on me

Chorus

W. Jennings,W. Nelson):

Don't ever cuss that fiddle,boy unless you want that fiddle out of tune

That picker there in trouble,boy ain't nothing but another side of you

If we ever get to Heaven,boy it ain't because we ain't done nothing wrong

We're in this thing together so let settle down and steal each other's songs

Verse 2

W. Jennings):

I found a wounded brother drinking bitterly away the afternoon

And soon enough he turned on me like he'd done every face in that saloon

Well we cussed him to the ground and said he couldn't even steal a decent song

But as soon as it was spoken we were sad enough to wish that we were wrong

Chorus.

I know that it sounds silly but i think that i just somebody's song

Verse 3

W. Jennings,W. Nelson):

She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man

She loves him in spite of my ways that she don't understand

Through teardrops and laughter we'll pass through this world hand in hand

A good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
