Please Pass The Biscuits Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G](singers)
Just picture a lad, between Mom and Dad
Its [C]Sunday the tables all [G]set
There's [D]uncles, there's aunts,
and [G]cousins galore
There's [A]plenty of food to be [D]et

[Verse 2]
The [G]blessing is said,
they reach for the bread
It's a [C]feast a king could af[B]ford
There's [C]clatter, there's chatter,
but [G]something's the matter
There's [D]someone who's
being ignored
[G]

[Verse 3]
(spoken)
Uh, would you please pass the biscuits?
Uh, would you pass [C]the biscuits please?
[G]Same thing ever Sunday since I[D]
can't remember when
[G]Kinfolks all around the table and the
[A]biscuits at tuther end

[Verse 4]
[D]
I got a plate of chicken and tater
[G]s, and a lot of stuff like that
All, all I need is a biscuit,
[C]but I wish you'd look where they're at
[B]I guess I could reach across the table,
But that's ill- [C]mannered,
Mom always said
[G]I wish I had a biscuit,
[D]I just can't eat without bread
[G]

[Verse 5]
Uh, would you pass the biscuits
Uh, excuse me,
would [C]you please pass the biscuits
[G]All I want is a biscuit,
[D]nobody seems to care
[G]If they wouldn't talk so
dog- gone loud
They might [A]be able to hear

[Verse 6]
Hot [D]doggies, they're [G]half- finished eatin'
and I [D]ain't even [G]begun[D][G]
I wish you'd look at [C]them biscuits disappear,
I'll be [B]luck if I get [C]a one
Same thing ever Sunday,
always [G]company to be fed
They're [D]talkin' like they're wound up
Boy, I wish [G]I had a piece of bread

[Verse 7]
[G]
HEY!!!! Would, would,
would you please [C]pass the biscuits
It looks [G]like somebody would notice
that I ain't started eatin' [D]yet
Sure be [G]glad when they get their fill,
and go into [A]the parlor and set
[D]Then, by golly,
I won't have to use my manners
[G]I'll just get a biscuit myself

[Verse 8]
[G]
Well, I'll [C]be a monkey's uncle,
there ain't a bis[B]cuit left
The only day of the week
we [C]get Sunday- fed
And they've et [G]up all the biscuits
[D]And, uh, I just can't eat
without bread
[G]

[Verse 9]
(singers)
[C]There's something the matter,
no [G]bread on the platter
And [D]he just can't eat without [G]bread
