Tunica Motel Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Monday looked
like a downer
Tuesday looked like rain
A bad [D]altitude
And [A]I knew I needed a change
[Em]

[Verse 2]
[Em]Head out on the highway
Cruising way down south
[D]I knew a little place
Where I [A]might could work it all [Em]out

[Verse 3]
[C]
I'm so [D]tired of fighting with my[Em]self
Gonna [Am]spend a little time at
[B]the Tunica Motel
[Em]

[Verse 4]
Just outside of Memphis, Highway 61
[D]Sleepy little town [A]down by
the Mississippi [Em]river
I'm gonna layout on a houseboat
Until my hide turn brown
[D]Ain't gonna move 'till the
[A]evening sun goes [Em]down

[Verse 5]
Fried [C]chicken to go
And they [D]got live bait for [Em]sale
Any[Am]thing you need at [B]the Tunica motel
[Em]

[Interlude 1]
[C][D][Em]
[Am][G][Em]

[Verse 6]
[Em]I find myself at midnight
Moving to the back porch blues
The [D]guitar cries,
[A]telling me about [Em]the hard times

[Verse 7]
[Em]Something moves in the shadows
Giving me a little chill
I thought [D]I saw Robert Johnson
[A]Walking out across the field
[Em]

[Verse 8]
There ain't [C]hardly nobody
[D]Left who even knows the [Em]tale
[Am]Gimme the blues at [B]the Tunica motel.

[Outro 1]
[Em][C][D][Em]
[Am][B][Em][B][Em]
