Way Downtown(Chords)

	        
F                 C 
Way downtown just fooling around 

G7                  C 
They took me to the jail 

F              C 
Oh me and it's oh my 

G7              C 
No one to go my bail 


   F                        C 
It was late last night when Willie came home 

G7                           C 
I heard him a-rapping on the door 

       F                           C 
He's a slipping and a sliding with them new shoes on 

G7                                 C 
Momma said Willie don't you rap no more 


F                 C 
Way downtown just fooling around 

G7                  C 
They took me to the jail 

F              C 
Oh me and it's oh my 

G7              C 
No one to go my bail 

  
  F                     C 
I wish I was over at my sweet Sally's house 

G7                        C 
Sitting in that big armed chair 

F                   C 
One arm around this old guitar 

G7                          C 
And the other one around my dear 


F                 C 
Way downtown just fooling around 

G7                  C 
They took me to the jail 

F              C 
Oh me and it's oh my 

G7              C 
No one to go my bail 


F                         C 
Now it?s one old shirt is bout all that I got 

G7                         C 
And a dollar is all that I crave 

  F                            C 
I brought nothing with me into this old world 

G7                             C 
Ain't gonna take nothing to my grave 


F                 C 
Way downtown just fooling around 

G7                  C 
They took me to the jail 

F              C 
Oh me and it's oh my 

G7              C 
No one to go my bail
