Up In Arkansas

Tom: E

          E
        Got me a rocker without no arms

        Ol' wood stove to keep me warm

        My firewood out of the rain

        I sit and watch the seasons change


Verse 2:
          E
        There's a woman in Little Rock

        Got plenty of money down in her sock

        She come to see me time to time

        We sit on the porch and drink our wine


Bridge 1:
             A                  E
        A man ought to know when he's got it all
           A            E
        Holding it down up in Arkansas


Verse 3:
          E
        Coyotes howl in the night

        The rats ate my food but that's alright

        They must have needed it more than me

        Ain't no sweat i'll eat their cheese


Bridge 2:
          A                     E
        Way back in the woods a hoot-owl calls
           A              E
        Making his rounds up in Arkansas


Verse 4:
         E
        The eagle flies wild and free

        Catches fish down in my creek

        I watch him rise on the breeze

        I don't bother him he don't bother me


Verse 5:

        Walmart moves into town

        Progress can't keep it down

        Tourists come from miles around

        I sit on the porch,the sun goes down


Bridge 3:
             A               E
        But i live way back from it all
           A          E
        Doing alright up in Arkansas
