verse 1 
        G               D 
Let him sit in the kitchen 
         G              D 
'Til the red rooster crows 
     Bm 
And drink bootleg whiskey 
        G           D 
'Til he loses control 
        G            D 
Let him find him somebody 
       G            D 
He can treat like a dog 
        Bm         A 
Let the house fall down 
    G              D 
And let him grow old
