Three Quarter Time

This song is on Ray Charles' country album "Wish You were Here Tonight" 
circa 1982 or 1983.  I picked it up around 1984.  It's really a good country  
song -- try to check it out. 
 
I worked this song out off the record, so it's all my own work and may not  
be perfectly accurate, but it works for me.  Hope it does for you, too. 
 
                                                                                                
3/4 Time - Ray Charles   
 
Verse 1: 
D                                           A 
I like enchilados and old El Dorados that shine 
                                                  D 
And old friend the guitar and songs and women and wine 
                                               G 
They say that I'm livin to fast but I'm feelin fine (yeah)   
A                                  D 
And I just keep easin along in 3/4 time     
D                                                     A 
Sometimes I get sideways and stay up all night writin songs   
                                                  D 
They say it ain't healthy but somehow I keep goin on (I do)   
                                                           G 
I write what I feel and don't care if the damn thing don't rhyme (no)   
     A                                  D 
Just gimme a C chord and play it in 3/4 time (got it)       
 
 
Chorus: 
       G                                             D 
It's a big old world and we all have to live out our lives   
    E                                                A 
And one thing's for sure ain't none of gonna get out alive(uhuh,sorry) 
 
 
Verse 2: 
D                                               A 
So while I'm still kickin I'm gonna keep pickin my tunes   
                                                 D 
I like what I'm doin and I hope it don't end too soon     
                                                      G 
Cause all a my life there's one thing I keep hopin to find (yes)     
A                                     D 
A woman who likes to make love in 3/4 time (be nice ya know)     
 
 
Chorus: 
       G                                             D 
It's a big old world and we all have to live out our lives   
    E                                                A 
And one thing's for sure ain't none of gonna get out alive(uhuh,sorry)
