2 KOOL 2 BE 4-GOTTEN (Lucinda Williams)
---------------------------------------
[Each chord is half of a 4/4 measure.]
[According to an e-mail I received from one Eric Pooley, Lucinda plays
 this in Drop D tuning.  I don't know whether or not this affects any of
 the chord fingerings.]

  You can't depend on anything really, there's no promises, there's no point

  There's no good, there's no bad, in this dirty little joint

G         G            A               A
  No dope-smoking, no beer sold after 12 o'clock

Rosedale, Mississippi, Magic City Juke Joint

Mr. Johnson sings over in a corner by the bar
G                    G        A               A
Sold his soul to the devil so he can play guitar

Man running through the grass outside says he wants to take up serpents
Says he will drink the deadly thing, and it will not hurt him

House rules, no exceptions
No bad language, no gamblin', no fightin'
Sorry, no credit, don't ask
Bathroom wall reads: Is God the answer? Yes

Too cool to be forgotten, hey hey, too cool to be forgotten

G       G    A           A
  June bug   versus hurricane
G       G  A            A        D  D  G  A   D  D  G  A
  June bug versus hurricane, hey hey

I had a lover, I, I thought he was mine
Thought I'd always be his valentine

Leaning agianst the railing of a Lake Charles bridge
Overlooking the river, leaning over the edge
He asked me, "baby, would you jump into the water with me?"
I told him, "no way, baby, that's your own death, you see"

Too cool to be forgotten, hey hey, too cool to be forgotten

June bug versus hurricane
June bug versus hurricane, hey hey
Hey hey
Hey hey
