[Intro]
E G D A
E G D A
[Verse 1]
E C G D
Lily pulled a horseshoe from a pile of junk
Am G
Said "I'm going to keep this good luck
D D/F# A
Piece of iron inside my trunk"
E C
The boy just whispered "OK"
G D
And grabbed his old black dog
Am G
As we piled on in and cut out through
D D/F# A
That late November fog
E C G D
Dull as a plough share rusting in the yard
Am G
Old Cotton grinned and waved goodbye
D D/F# A
While the auctioneers all played cards
E C
On every other Sunday
G D
I'd walk down to Moe's and back
Am G
Eat a t-bone steak, watch a picture show
D D/F# A
For a dollar and a half
[Chorus]
F C G
Come on little sister get up off my knee
F C
Going to settle down someday
G C/G G7
In a town called Jubi lee
Bb
Come on brother Jake
F/A Fm/Ab C/G
Break on out and a break free
F D7/F#
Going to set things right and set up a house
C/G Eb/G Bb/G F/C C
In a town called Ju bi lee
E G D A
E G D A
[Verse 2]
E C
That fog came out of nowhere
G D
Short of what I can tell
Am G
Hand to hand we passed that bucket
D D/F# A
Up and down from the well
E C
"Gone to California"
G D
Used to be what folks would say
Am G
Down around these parts if it was me
D D/F# A
I'd have hoped that west bound stage
[Chorus]
F C G
Come on little sister get up off my knee
F C
Going to settle down someday
G C/G G7
In a town called Jubi lee
Bb
Come on brother Jake
F/A Fm/Ab C/G
Break on out and a break free
F D7/F#
Going to set things right and set up a house
C/G Eb/G Bb/G F/C C
In a town called Ju bi lee
[Verse 3]
F G
One less hallelujah
C/E F
A little less sympathy
F G
Lily and Jake, the old black dog
C/E F D/F#
A pinewood box, a rocking horse
C/G C/G Eb/G Bb/G F/C C
All gone to Ju bi lee
E C G D
Am G D D/F# Am
E C G D
Am G D D/F# Am
[Chorus]
F C G
Come on little sister get up off my knee
F C
Going to settle down someday
G C/G G7
In a town called Jubi lee
Bb
Come on brother Jake
F/A Fm/Ab C/G
Break on out and a break free
F D7/F#
Going to set things right and set up a house
C/G Eb/G Bb/G F/C C
In a town called Ju bi lee
