Listen to the song to get the timing, its pretty simple
A
Tired of living in Buttholeville
Tired of my job and my wife Lucille
D
Tired of my kids Ronnie and Neil
A
Tired of my 68 Bonneville
Working down at Billy Bob’s Bar and Grille
The food here tastes like the way I feel
D
There’s a girl on the dance floor dressed to kill
A
She’s the best looking woman in Buttholeville
A
One day I’m gonna get out of Buttholeville
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/drive_by_truckers/buttholeville_crd.html ]
Gonna reach right in Gonna grab the till
D
Buy a brand new hat and a Coupe deVille
A
lay a patch on the road that runs over the hill
There’s a beach somewhere where the water’s are still
Gonna lay in the sun till my skin peals
D
Drinking the best scotch whiskey, eating lobster and eel
A
and I’m never going back to Buttholeville
A G
Never going, never going, never going never going back!
