Intro: Am C G 4x
Verse:
Am C G Am
One day when I was on the bus I heard a loud noise behind me
Am C G Am
And curious as I always am, I turned around to see
Am C G Am
A big man with a big guitar strapped to the side of his Harley
Am C G Am
I opened up my window and I said, is your name Charlie
C G
And he said, no
Chorus 1:
C G Am
He said, my name is Smokey Bacon and I drove all the way from Macon, down in Georgia
C G Am
I like to play this big guitar and hang out in some dusty bar in Florida
C G
But today I'm on a special quest, gonna drive into the west
Am C G
And see if I can find that setting sun
(no chord) Am
My name is Smokey Bacon
Verse:
Am C G Am
I said, I'm sorry man, I can't come along, but if ya'd like me to I'll write a song for you
Am C G Am
Then I asked him for his six string, and I played the man this little groove
C G
And it went a little something like this
Solo:
Am C G 8x
Chorus 2:
C G Am
And I said, my name is John Beatrice and I like the cowboy hat that's on my head
C G Am
But I'll trade it for your big guitar and play it in that bar when you are dead
c G
People will come from miles around just to hear this guitar's sound
Am C G
And I promise I'll never let ya down
(no chord) Am
Mister Smokey Bacon
Outro: Am C G 4x
