well , i don’t know what my uncle did
but he must have done it right
they sure strung him up one saturday night
[ D ]
he had spent his whole life fussin’
would have spent his last breath cussin’
[ A ] [ G# ] [ G ] [ F# ]
’til he realized the deal was really done
[ B ]
he started screamin’ “hallelujah”
[ E ] [ A ] [ C# ] [ D ] [ D# ] [ E ]
tryin’ to make his peace with everyone
