27 D throughout, with shades of D minor. The guitar/accordeon riff below is
28 played at the end (or is it beginning?) of most measures, and that
’s
29 more or less it, except for the
‘Home Town
’ motif, given here
30 as a one-guitar thing, but played on different instruments. I
31 wouldn
’t necessarily say that it
’s a good idea to play this
32 arrangement on a single guitar, but it
’s up to you.

34 N.C. =
"no chord"; the slash chords (
"/d" etc) indicate bass notes.

77 I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town
81 Well there's reasons for that, and reasons for this
82 I can't think of any just now, but I know they exist
83 I'm sittin in the sun 'till my skin turns brown
84 I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town home town home town
88 She can make you steal, make you rob
89 Give you the hives, make you lose your job
90 Make things bad she can make things worse
91 She got stuff more potent than a gypsy curse
95 One of these days I'll end up on the run
96 I'm pretty sure she'll make me kill someone
97 I'm going inside, roll the shutters down
98 I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town
103 Well there's plenty to remember, plenty to forget
104 I still can remember the day we met
105 I lost my reasons long ago
106 My love for her is all I know
110 State gone broke, the county's dry
111 Don't be lookin' at me with that evil eye
112 Keep on walking, don't be hanging around
113 I'm tellin you again that hell's my wife's home town
