RICE BIRDS
CAPO 1st FRET

Are we about ready, All right, Rice birds

I was th[C]inkin' of you when the r[F]ice birds f[C]lew[C]
When the fa[C]lse dawn came with mo[F]rning d[C]ew[C]
You're a thu[G]nderstorm ragin' outside [C]my ga[F]rage[F]
You're the wh[C]ite shirt peekin' through my c[F]amoufl[C]age[C]

INST: CHORDS AS VERSE

I was th[C]inkin' o' you and I w[F]on't fo[C]rget[C]
T[C]ail of the turtle and Ba[F]you Te[C]ch[C]
I ca[G]nnot dance but I c[C]an hang [F]on[F]
To s[C]ome sweet memory up in O[F]berl[C]in[C]

I was thi[C]nkin' o' you at the Ma[F]rdi Gr[C]ais[C]
Fo[C]rds and Chevys like I ne[F]ver s[C]aw[C]
I wi[G]sh you were here to da[C]nce with [F]me[F]
To h[C]ear this Cajun S[F]ympho[C]ny[C]

INST: C Am C G C F C C

I was thi[C]nkin' of you at the [F]L.A. b[C]ar[C]
Where I g[C]ot so drunk I couldn't dr[F]ive my c[C]ar[C]
I was dre[G]amin' about you with my t[C]en ounce b[F]eer[F]
Dreamin' sw[C]eet daydreams wishin' y[F]ou were h[C]ere[C]

I was th[C]inkin' of you with the br[F]aids in your h[C]air[C]
O[C]ld Houston, Texas or a[F]nywhe[C]re[C]
I was dre[G]amin' about you and my cha[C]ngin' w[F]ay[F]
I st[C]ill think about you in my tra[F]velling d[C]ays[C]

I was thi[C]nkin' of you where the su[F]nset gl[C]ows[C]
Down the Miss[C]issippi River where the gu[F]lf wind bl[C]ows[C]
I was dre[G]amin' about you in the Fl[C]uer-De-L[F]ys[F]
I was wi[C]shin' you were n[F]ext to [C]me[G][C]
