Put The Sugar To Bed(Keyboard chords)

	        
A          D 
Out on a shrimp boat I just dropped the net 
           E                                           A 
When the wind she come to blowin' whizzin' bad all to get 
                        D 
I look south east and golly me what I see 
    E 
A black thundercloud with them fuzzy eyebrows 
                                 A 
Come a lookin' direct towards boudleaux and me 
    D                      A 
I turned to boudleaux and me I said 
          E                    A 
Put the sugar to bed put the sugar to bed 
 D                           A 
Lock up the coffee in the coffee pot 
              E                A 
Put the flour in your pillow cause it's all we got 
                                        D 
Hang the lantern from the ceiling and watch your head 
     E                 A            E                A 
Ho boudleaux put the sugar to bed boudleaux put the sugar to bed 
D         A                         D 
Well the sky she get dark and then she turn dark black 
        E                                    A 
I yell she gonna blow one right out of the almanac 
                       D                 
A big raindrop smacked me right on the ear 
         E 
And I hollered hey boudleaux but the way the wind blow 
                                      A 
He just as soon be deaf there wasn't no how to hear 
   D                             A 
I try to call to boudleaux but slid instead 
     E                          A 
Then me and boudleaux put the sugar to bed 

Solo 
D   A   E   A   D   A 

                                                     D 
Well the ends of that shrimpin' boat was switchin' around 
              E 
She turned sideways and inners and outers and upside down 
      A                       D 
The water come in tryin' to drown the both of us 
      E                                                                  A 
The closet top open and the shillet went a flyin' me I hit my head and kinda  
cuss 
     D                              A 
But most of all I frowned when she calm that I said 

         E                    A 
Put the sugar to bed put the sugar to bed 
 D                         A                 E                      A 
Ain't nothin' dry but my railroad watch the salt got soggy but we still can budge 
    A                              D 
We built a fire for the coffee and we chicory fed 
                        A 
Cause me and boudleaux put the sugar to bed 
         E                A 
Me and boudleaux put the sugar to bed
