Blackberry Smoke - Son Of The Bourbon Chords & Tabs

Blackberry Smoke - Son of the Bourbon

    G                                C               G
My mama drank scotch whiskey and my daddy drank Jim Beam
G                                      D
I was conceived just outside of New Orleans
 G                                           C
Told my ma he loved her while Elvin Bishop played
  G                                 D         G
That would be the worst mistake my mama ever made

Chorus:

     C                         G
I a son of the bourbon, I'm a son of a bitch
       G                                A              D
I'm a dyin' breed of rock and roll I'd pass up in the ditch 
 G                                                     C
I've been up against the law, I've spent some time in jail
 G                                      D                 G
I've been know for gettin stoned, I've raised my share of hell


  G                           C            G
They went back to Alabam one cold October day
    G                                       D
as soon as I was born, my daddy up and ran away
G                                              C
We got by on getting by, we live from week to week
    G                                  D               G
As long as I got two good hands, I'll work to earn my keep

Bury me upside down so the world can kiss my ass
