INTRO: D

    D                                                             G     G/F#    G
I scandalize my brother while admittin' that he sings some purty songs, and he does
     A7                                                                 D    Dsus4   D
I'd heard that he'd been scandalizin' me and Lord I knew that that was wrong, and it was
        D                                                               G      G/F#   G
Now I'm lookin' at it older, somethin' cool and feelin' fool enough to see
     A7                                                            D
What I had called my brother on now he had every right to call on me


CHORUS:
D                                                                   G
Don't ever cuss that fiddle boy unless you want that fiddle out of tune
       A7                                                           D
That picker there in trouble boy ain't nothin' but another side of you
       D                                                               G
If we ever get to Heaven boys it ain't because we ain't done nothin' wrong
       A7                                                                D
We're in this gig together so let's settle down and steal each other's songs


(Key change to E)
   E                                                    A       Asus2   A
I found a wounded brother drinkin' bitterly away the afternoon
    B7                                                             E     Esus4   E
And soon enough he turned on me like he'd done every face in that saloon, yes he did
E                                                                         A     Asus2 A
Well we cussed him to the ground and said he couldn't even steal a decent song
     B7                                                            E
But soon as it was spoken we were sad enough to wish that we were wrong


CHORUS:
E                                                                   A
Don't ever cuss that fiddle boy unless you want that fiddle out of tune
      B7                                                            E
That picker there in trouble boy ain't nothin' but another side of you
E                                                                         A
And if we ever get to Heaven boys it ain't because we ain't done nothin' wrong
      B7                                                               E
We're in this gig together so let's settle down at steal each other's songs

  B7                                                                  E     Esus4  E
I know that it sounds silly but I think that I just stole somebody's song


(SPOKEN over E)
Sorry Merle, Jeff, Tom too, Waylon, Hank, Willie, Harlan...
