Its A Shame

G D G

[Verse 1]
 G
Well my daddy was a saint
 G
My momma was a sinner
                           D
Papaw was an old freight train

[Verse 2]
 D
Well my uncle liked huntin' and the other liked fishin'
                                  G
Lord and my aunts nearly drove em insane
  G
Yeah my brothers a hero
 G
My sisters an angel
                                  C
And I never meant to cause em no pain
                                 G
Yes and I am a drinker and I'm also a thinker
    D                  D7           G
And I think that's a damn crying shame

[Chorus]
  N.C.              G
Just like it's a shame to see a woman
 G
Who's white trash and pretty
                                         D
It's a shame to see a truck that don't run
 D
It's a shame that I'm so rich when I ain't got no money
                         D7      G
It's a shame I ain't having no fun
 G                                           G7
It's a shame I ain't sitting up on some barstool
                                      C
It's a shame that I'm going through hell
 C
It's a shame I've been drinking
        G
And it's a shamе I've been thinking
         D        D7         G
But I'm bored so I might as well sing
   G                    D    G
Yodеl-lay-he yodel-lay-he yodel-lay-he

[Verse 3]
 G
Well my dog ate my loveseat
 G
My cars a lemon
                                  D
I've got two left feet and no thumbs
 D
I'm unambidextrous I'm uncoordinated
                                 G
I'd count my blessings if I had some
 G
Or at least that's the way it feels
 G
On them old dreary days
                            C
Rain falling down from the sky
                                             G
I'll give you these last parting words of my wisdom
  D               D7                  G
They ain't much but I reckon I oughta try

[Chorus]
 N.C.                          G
To tell y'all that it's a shame to see a woman
 G
Who's white trash and pretty
                                         D
It's a shame to see a truck that won't run

It's a shame that I'm so rich when I ain't got no money
                                G
It's a shame I ain't having no fun
                                     G7
It's a shame I ain't sitting up on some barstool
                                     C
It's a shame that I'm going through hell

It's a shame I've been drinking
                             G
And it's a shame I've been thinking
         D        D7          G
But I'm bored so I might as well sing
   G              D              G
Yodel-lay-he yodel-lay-he yodel-lay-he
