  [A]
Well, I don't know what my uncle did  
But he must have done it right 
They sure strung him up one Saturday night  
             [D]
He had spent his whole life fussin' 
Would have spent his last breath cussin' 
           [A]                [Ab]         [G]       [F#]
'Til he realized the deal was really done 
                    [B]
He started screamin' "hallelujah" 
   [E]                                          [A] [C#] [D] [Eb] [E]
Tryin' to make his peace with everyone 
                      [D]
Yeah, he was kickin' and screamin' 
                             [A]
Just like he came in 
            [Bb] [B]
He was kickin' and screamin', darlin' 
                              [E] [F] [E] [Eb]
Right to the bitter end 
 [D]
Ain't it funny how we come in kickin' giddyup 
                                  [A][Ab][G][F#]
And go out hollerin' whoa 
             [B]
Lord, we never want to be here 
  [E]                                 [A][C#][D][Eb][A]
Sure don't ever want to go 
[A]
Well, I could hear those church bells ringin' 
To my best friend I was clingin' 
Screamin' "If you love me brother don't let me go" 
                      [D]
Well then the whole scene was repeated 
Two years later I begged and pleaded 
                     [A]                   [Ab]
Screamin' "If you love me, honey, 
[G]                            [F#]
Now you know you wouldn't want to let me go" 
         [B]
No, I didn't want to do it 
         [E]                                              [A][C#][D][Eb][A][Eb][E]
But I sure don't want to see it come undone 
Break  [A]  [D]  [B]  [E]  [C#]  [E]  [Eb]  [A]
                   [D]
Yeah, I was kickin' and screamin' 
                          [A]
Just like I came in 
         [Bb][B]
I was kickin' and screamin', darlin' 
                              [E][F][E][Eb]
Right to the bitter end 
[D] 
Ain't it funny how we come in kickin' giddyup 
                                 [A][Ab][G][F#]
And go out hollerin' whoa 
              [B]
Lord, we never want to be here

                   [B]
Seems, we never want to be here 
[E]                                   [A][C#][D][Eb][A]
