Why Don't You Just Go Home
Greg Brown

Greg Brown
Slant 6 Mind
1997

I got such a strong response from the first Greg Brown
tune that I decided to add this one.  It's very easy if
you've got that deep voice.  Catch Greg at the Falcon
Ridge Folk Festival in July '99.  I'll be there!

          D                   G         Em
There's a whipporwhill in the rolling hills
A                        G            D
   It'll drive you crazy give you the chills

          D                       G                 Em
There's a barn that got smaller and the blowed out cars
A                       G        A
   Beans climb up to the falling stars

CHORUS
D                     G     Em
Why don't you just go home
A                     D
Why don't you just go home
       D                        G              Em
You've had enough wine and it's lamp-lighting time
A                     D
Why don't you just go home

D


It's always too hot except when it's too cold
The dogs is all rascals and the chickens are old
God hung the moon way too low in the sky
You're always laughing except when you cry


CHORUS

FIDDLE SOLO
play verse chords


Company for supper when the day is through
People talk funny just like you
New vines from the old dirt now ain't that sweet
New songs from the old tunes to tap our feet


CHORUS

play chorus tab with humming ad-lib
end on D
