The Hammock Song

Matt Powell

I think he tunes down to a different key because I can?t get the EXACT sound (open strings) but these chords will allow you to play Along with the mp3. I met a good friend a long time ago I could make it to the cooler shade But I ended up burying myself alive To prove that I could use a spade I could be the next, I could be the first A few people even know my name I'm a big league hitter with a hell of a glove But they never put me in the game But I-I-I'm gonna be alright If I leave here tonight And I told a good friend a long time ago I was gonna make it to the Hall of Fame But she left me for a Hollywood movie star She liked the way he spelled his name I could be the best, I could be the worst But I'm gonna tell you one thing's for sure To those who fight for a life that's a special flavor the shelter can never know Chorus Bridge: Mmmmmmmmmm, oohhhooohhh I try to find a little humor everywhere I go Mmmmmmmmmm, hey-hey A little humor is the only thing that keeps me sane Oh and I begged my poor mom a long time ago Not to hate me for the choice I made And a minute in the sun's no price to pay For a second in the cooler shade I could be the one but I'm on the run So don't come a knockin' on my door I'll be swingin in a hammock strung 'tween the trees Well I did it and I told you so Closing Chorus: I'm gonna be alright I'm gonna be alright I-I-I'm gonna be alright If I leave here tonight
