Jimmie Rodgers Chords

Chords are for a guitar tuned a step down--   Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb


Em       Am      

Em                    B                 Em
Ho-ho-hay-hay.... The Gambling Bar Room Blues

  Em                                       Am
I went down to the corner, just to meet my gal.
  Em                                  B             Em
I found her standing on the sidewalk, talking to my pal.
  Em                                                     Am
I strolled back to the bar room, to get another drink of gin.
        Em                                B                 Em
But the first thing I knew I was reeling, rocking and drunk again.

  Em                                               Am
I kept drinking gin and liquor, 'til way up in the night.
        Em                            B               Em
When my pal walked into the bar room, we had an awful fight.
  Em                                              Am
I reached down for my razor, and then we knocked around.
    Em                         B                  Em
But when I pulled my pistol, I quickly smoked him down.

Em                    Am       Em                          B      Em
Hay-hee-hay-ho-ho-ooh-ooh------ooo-ooo-ooo-oooooooh-ooh-oh-ho-hay-ho

  Em                                           Am
I went down to see my baby, and met her on the way,
  Em                              B                      Em
I told her I'd have to leave her. I told her I could not stay.
  Em                                                 Am
I started down to the station, and stopped in at the bar.
Em                       B                 Em
There I met a policeman, riding in a motor car.

   Em                                                  Am
We both drank lots of liquor, that flat footed cop and I.
  Em                               B                   Em
I thought he would never leave me. Lord, I thought I'd die.
   Em                                            Am
My baby came in to join us, and then it began to rain.
Em                             B                   Em
Then I had to hurry, hurry, to catch that midnight train.

  Em                                                         Am
I laid my head in the bar room door. I'll never get drunk anymore.
  Em                                     B                        Em
I pawned my watch and my golden chain. I pawned my baby's diamond ring.
Em                                              Am
Police, police, police, you're just as drunk as me.
     Em                               B                      Em
I'll grab that old eight-wheeler, and make for the deep blue sea-ee.
