Vote on Tuesday

I don’t want to vote on Tuesday
(Vote on Tuesday Vote on Tuesday)
I don’t want to vote on Tuesday
For the county judge
‘Cause I never read the pamphlet
(Read the pamphlet Read the pamphlet)
Cause I never read the pamphlet
I don’t know what he’s going to do to me
If I’m busted if I’m free
What’s he going to do to me
When the day is done
I ain’t done no gun slinging
(Gun slinging Gun slinging)
I ain’t done no gun slinging
I ain’t hurt anyone
I’m trying to make a simple living
From my hand to mouth
I’m eating month to month
I’m always giving in
I’m giving out
I’m looking ‘cross the farmer’s valley
Seeing the future tract home
Housing or them prisons
Grimly standing if you done wrong
They got a place for everyone
When they put you before they’re done
They got a place for everyone
When they’ll lay you down
So make sure that you’re documented
Licensed and been registrated
all your papers are collated
and your dues are paid
I’m down in a hole
and I don’t know where to go
Where to go
I don’t want to throw a brick
Through their window pane
I don’t want to light the torch
That sets the town aflame
But I know how to hide in canyons
(Hide in canyons Hide in canyons)
I know how to hide in canyons
Underneath the shrub and
I know how to shoot a rifle
I know how to shoot a rifle
I know how to draw blood

    One awesome jam. Let me repeat that. One awesome jam.

  4. teledawg Says:

    I agree with sexmonkey on the chords. . .

  5. madhatter1o6 Says:

    Make those D’s Dm, play it up really high on the neck (Gm is on the 10th fret, Bb on the 13th, F on the 8th, and Dm on the 8th). I’ll check the bridge tomorrow.

  6. evan Says:

    The refrain of this song (“I’m down in a hole…”) has to be one of Trevor’s greatest songwriting achievements. He builds up the tension to it so well and releases it perfectly. If only the song went into the refrain more than once…

  7. j0hn Says:

    deuce’s chords are incorrect. sexmonkey’s chords are good. thanks sexmonkey!
