************************************

[Verse 1]
Dm
Born on the floor of an old farmhouse
Am
Hair of ruddy blonde and curls for a crown
C
He fell down hard right from the start
G
Felt death’s blow that left him scarred
Am Am Am Am
Am
Money was tight and times were hard
G
His family worked the soil on the farm
F
He grew up lean sharp-shooter keen
G
His hands’ grip could make men scream
Am Am Am Am
Am
People were hungry and headlines were bad
G
But they made do with what they had
C
Father played fiddle mama stomped her feet
E
The neighborhood kids twirled in the street
Am
He learned guitar he sang the notes
C
The curly blonde boy even told some jokes
G
Made girls swoon and dance on their feet
Am
At the Friday night juke joint down the street
G G E E
