Poor Rambler Sturgill Simpson
[Verse 1]
Come and [G]gather around me good people
My life I [D7]must re[G]veal
Well [G]tomorrow might have been different
And I know how my [D7]darling ought to [G]feel
[Verse 2]
Well that [G]last time I saw my woman
She had a wine glass [D7]in her [G]hand
She was [G]drinking down her troubles
With a low down [D7]sorry [G]man
[Verse 3]
Well I [G]wrote my Momma a letter
And I told her [D7]I was in [G]jail
Well she [G]wrote me back in a hurry
Saying honey I'm gonna [D7]come and throw your [G]bail
[Verse 4]
Well I'm a [G]laying around in this old jail house
Forty dollars will [D7]pay my [G]fine
Pretty [G]women swarming all around me
Marijuana has de[D7]stroyed my [G]mind
[Cborus]
Give me [G]corn bread when I'm hungry
Corn whiskey [D7]when I'm [G]dry
Pretty [G]women swarming all around me
Sweet Heaven [D7]when I [G]die
[Solo]

[Verse 5]
Well my [G]Daddy taught me plenty
And my Momma she [D7]taught me [G]more
She said if [G]I didn't quit my rowdy ways
I'd have trouble [D7]knocking at my [G]door
[Verse 6]
When my [G]Earthly trials are over
Throw my cold dead [D7]body in the [G]sea
Tell that [G]false hearted lover of mine
That the whales are gonna [D7]fuss over [G]me
[Cborus]
Give me [G]corn bread when I'm hungry
Corn whiskey [D7]when I'm [G]dry
Pretty [G]women swarming all around me
Sweet Heaven [D7]when I [G]die
[Outro]
