Well poor Tom Jefferson
He loved the little maid out back (do lick 3 times)
D
Midnight creepin' out to the servant's shack (lick 3 times)
E
Kept a secret under the bed
D
Wrapped in a burlap sack (lick)
D
Well I drove all day and night
Out to Jericho (lick 3 times)
D
But in my second mind
I knew it was time to go (lick)
E
Yeah and I still get nervous every time
D
That bugle blows (lick)
Harp solo over A, guitar solo over full chord pattern
D
Well she ain't no good for me
But I just can't let go (lick)
D
If I sit here thinking
My thoughts will overflow (lick)
E
And I can't keep from crying
D
Can't keep time from moving slow (lick)
go out over A - C - A - G - A chord boogie. End on A chord flare.
