Big Time

Intro: A D A Em A

Verse

A

There's a place where I like to go

                                    D                         

When things are gettin' a little too slow

                                  A

A place to pick up the tempo

                                 Em 

To whoop, holler, and shout 

                                       A

It's a place where you can take your frown

                                    D                

To turn it sideways and upside down

                                    A             Em                

You probably got one in your town

                           A 

A place to let it all out

Chorus

                      A                                           D                                       

We'll be havin' a big time, we'll be drinkin' and a singin'

                                      A                                         Em                          

Someone'll  bring out the moonshine, and the place'll start swingin'

           A                                        D                                                    

These crazy friends of mine sure can make me feel fine,

    A                                  D                                                                  

Drinking up the Highlife and black cherry wine

     A                                                                                                    

Oh it's time

      Em                       A                                                                           

To have a big time with me

Verse 

                           A                                                                             

Things ain't always the way they should be

                                          D                                                               

There's cold and hunger and poverty

[I seen it all on my TV]

                                                       A                                                 

And when those things start a botherin' me

                           Em                                                                             

I start a feelin' real low

                                  A                                                                      

It's hard to care for my family

                                                D                                                         

The tax collector keeps a hasselin' me

                                      A         Em                                                           

So when it's time to leave reality

                        A                                                                                 

There's a place I go

Chorus

Verse

                                    A                                                                    

The morning after is the hardest of all

                                  D                                                       

I didn't think there was room left to fall

                                       A                                                                   

But I'm still droppin' like a cannonball

                  Em                                                                                       

Deep down below

                           A                                                                     

I realize that life is not my lot

                                D                                                                            

Making my way takes more than I've got

                                   A             Em                                                            

A break from my worries helps a lot

[A place to drown my worries...]

              A                                                                                          

So back I go

Chorus
