Adam Carroll
Oklahoma Gypsy Shuffler

6/8 time, Key of A, Adam does this in open E with a Capo 7, but, if you're like me,

you don't want to have to waste any time tuning an additional guitar, so this works quite nicely.

[Intro]
A A/B A
D A A E

[Chorus]
A A/B A
He was an Oklahoma Gypsy Shuffler
D A A E
Comin' and goin' / low and high
A A/B A
Rock and rollin' / hayseed hustler
D A E A
With his honky tonk wings and his old snake eyes

[Verse 1]
A A/B A
Drivin' down the West Coast highway
D A A E
The songs out the window / was all he had to lose
A A/B A
Cuttin' heads on the chitlins circuit
D A E A
But he couldn't kick the red dirt off of his / Alligator shoes

[Chorus]
A A/B A
He was an Oklahoma Gypsy Shuffler
D A A E
Comin' and goin' / ain't never gonna stay
A A/B A
Midnight jivin' red dirt hustler
D A E A
Livin' that low down ol' Red River way

[Bridge]
D A D A
And he did it with a Bible / And he did it with a gun
A A/B D E
Tryin' to get away from the damage that he done
D A D A
And he did it with a guitar / Late into the night
A A/B D E
Tryin' to live just like the songs that he would write

[Verse 2]
A A/B A
Snortin' cocaine off a Buck knife
D A A E
3.2 drinkin' / playin' 4/4 time
A A/B A
Tried his best but he could never act right
D A E A
With a honky tonk angel hangin' on / Every single line

[Chorus]
A A/B A
He was an Oklahoma Gypsy Shuffler
