Here's a fun song that's easy to play. Go to
kevinfowler.com for the tempo (you'll never sing the
chorus right if you haven't heard it!!).
Well, it sta[A]rted 'bout a month ago when [D]I was in the
can
For fi[E]rin' off my .44 [A]at another man
Ain't been too good at bustin' rock or wo[D]rkin' chain
gang
Ne[E]ver could see me draggin' th[A]at ol' ball and chain
(chorus)
Ba[A]ll and ch[D]ain, it's bri[E]ngin' me down ag[A]ain
Gotta keep runnin' go[D]tta do my own thing
I could ne[E]ver drag a ball and ch[A]ain
Well, you alw[A]ays kept sayin' how you th[D]ink that I
should stay
And w[E]e could get started on our o[A]wn family
Come along tomorrow I'll be on[D] the mornin' train
Gonna bo[E]ogie back to Texas couldn't dr[A]ag your ball and
chain
(chorus)
I used to wa[A]ke up every mornin' and I'd [D]do the rat
race
Su[E]it and tie, nine to five wou[A]ldn't my place
Didn't take too long for me to un[D]derstand
I could ne[E]ver be a blue collar wo[A]rkin' class man
(chorus twice)
