	        CAPO ON FIRST FRET 
 
Verse One (Waylon): 
A 
I'll bet it ain't a-rainin' back home 
I bet your sister's still on the phone 
      D                      A                  E 
I bet mama's in the kitchen, cooking fried chicken 
   B7          E            A 
Wishing that I hadn't done wrong 
 
 
Verse Two (Johnny - Spoken): 
A 
Don't you worry about us none now, mama 
Everything's gonna be all right, mama 
They're teaching us a lot of new things in here, mama 
Things like... 
(Johnny with Waylon as harmony/background singer): A There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James D A E And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi B7 E A And there ain't no good chain gang
Instrumental - Waylon on guitar. See bottom of document... Verse Three (Waylon): Papa's readin' yesterday's mail Wishin' that the hay was all bailed I'll bet he's a-wishin' he could go fishin' And here I am a-laying in jail Verse Four (Jonnhy - Spoken): Don't you worry about us now, Papa They're teaching us a lesson a day, we're learning pretty well, too We've already learned a whole lot of stuff already Things like... Chorus x2 Waylon guitar part (similar to first) Chorus x2 - Fade out half way through second one NOTES: Waylon's guitar parts are kinda based around 0h2 on the fourth string. Then it moves down two, then another two, or something like that. It's kinda hard to explain. But if you know the 'T For Texas' one, this is very similar. Enjoy this damn cool song.
