****************** DON`T CUSS THE FIDDLE *******************

written by Kris Kristofferson

performed by Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson.


Capo on the 2nd fret.

Verse 1 (W. Nelson):
B E
I scandalized my brother while admitting that he sang some pretty songs
F B
I heard that he`d been scandilizing me and Lord i knew that that was wrong
E
Now i`m looking at over something cool and feeling fool enough to see
F B
What i had called my brother,now he had every right to call on me


Chorus (W. Jennings,W. Nelson):
B E
Don`t ever cuss that fiddle,boy unless you want that fiddle out of tune
F B
That picker there in trouble,boy ain`t nothing but another side of you
E
If we ever get to Heaven,boy it ain`t because we ain`t done nothing wrong
F B
We`re in this thing together so let settle down and steal each other`s songs


Verse 2 (W. Jennings):
B E
I found a wounded brother drinking bitterly away the afternoon
F B
And soon enough he turned on me like he`d done every face in that saloon
E
Well we cussed him to the ground and said he couldn`t even steal a decent song
F B
But as soon as it was spoken we were sad enough to wish that we were wrong


Chorus.

F B
I know that it sounds silly but i think that i just somebody`s song


Verse 3 (W. Jennings,W. Nelson):
B E
She`s a good hearted woman in love with a good timin` man
F B
She loves him in spite of my ways that she don`t understand
E
Through teardrops and laughter we`ll pass through this world hand in hand
F B
A good hearted woman in love with a good timin` man
