This song is off his album "Honky-Tonk History"
Awesome song and CD
And all the G notes after the A notes can either be G
or E (I'm not really sure) you can also alternate the chords
(Verse 1)
E G
Ol' Clarence was a corn-fed Sunday School teacher at the
A G
Cheap hill church of Christ
E G
A god-fearin', fence-clearin', hay-slingin', hymn-singin'
A G
Back breaker all o' his life
E
Came in early one night
G
found his pretty wife
A G
in the arms of another man
E G A G
There hell to pay when a good ol' boy goes bad
(Verse 2, same chords)
In a smoke-filled late night club by the river
sat a stranger dealin' five card stud
He was a big-talkin' fast-walkin' fly by nighter
There to take their money and run
They caught the fella' cheatin' so they set him up a meetin'
With his maker in the promise land
Nobody sees a thing when a good ol' boy goes bad
(Chorus)
E G
The good book goes out the window
A G
When the gloves go to the floor
E G
His give a damn to be a righteous man
A G
Don't give a damn no more
E G
Under that blue collar
A G
is a big ol' long red path
E G
That hides the truth but it bleeds through
A E
When a good ol' boy goes bad
(Verse 3)
Now old man Taylor was a fourth generation
Crop growin' son of a gun
One dry summer Uncle Sam come a runnin'
Wantin' money but there wasn't none
He put a crop in the holler, when night came he watered
When times get hard sometimes a good ol' boy goes bad
(Repeat chorus 2x)
E G
It hides the truth but it bleeds through
A E
When a good ol' boy goes bad
