Charlie Robison - Barlight

Well ^Gwhen I was young my momma read me ^CNursery rhymes beside my bed And ^Gthough they sounded mighty fine They ^Dmade no sense to me But ^Gnow that I am all grown up It ^Cseems my life has changed as such So ^GI went out and made me up A ^Dnursery Rhyme for ^Gme

It goes ^Gbar light, bar bright ^CFirst bar that I see tonight I ^Gwish I may I wish I might ^DFind someone to hold me tight ^GHey diddle diddle, a man with a fiddle And the ^Cgirls sing along with the tunes Just ^Gone more dance til you turn out the lights And you ^Dcan shut down t^Ghis saloon

Well I^G never understood how a big old gal C^Could raise no kids in a shoe And a^Gny old Jack goes jumping in a candle Needs t^Do find something better to do And ^Grub a dub dub, three men in a tub S^Cure sounds kind of funny to me So I ^Gmade up a honky tonk nursery rhyme and ^Dit's the only one I'll^G sing

It goes ^Gbar light, bar bright ^CFirst bar that I see tonight I ^Gwish I may I wish I might ^DFind someone to hold me tight ^GHey diddle diddle, a man with a fiddle And the ^Cgirls sing along with the tunes Just ^Gone more dance til you turn out the lights And you ^Dcan shut down t^Ghis saloon
