Hicktown

  

Tuning notes: 

For the intro riff to sound right you have to downtune the low E string 
1 1/2 steps to Db (where 8th fret held down sounds like the A string- 
normal tuning 5th fret would sound like the A string) 

If you want to play the whole song with this tuning just don't hit the 
bottom string when you strum the chords (or use the formation for E and F# 
that's in the intro tab)

Verse 2: 
Well you can see the neighbors butt crack nailing on his shingles 
And his woman?s? smokin? Pall Mall?s watchin? Laura Ingles 
And Granny?s getting? lit she?s headin? out to bingo 
Yeah my buddies and me are goin? muddin? down on Blue Hole Road 


REPEAT Chorus 


Bridge: 
   Db                                      E-F# 
We hear folks in the city party in Martini Bars 
Db                                                E-F# 
And they like to show off in their fancy foreign cars 
Db                                          E-F# 
Out here in the boondocks we buy beer at Amoco 
    Db 
And crank our Kraco speakers with that country radio 



REPEAT Chorus
