Jimmy Crack Corn Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

AWhen I was young I Eused to wait

 On master and Ahand him his plate

A7Pass him the bottle when Dhe got dry

 And Ebrush away the Ablue-tail fly

AJimmy crack corn, and EI don't care

 Jimmy crack corn, and AI don't care

A7Jimmy crack corn, and DI don't care

 My Emaster's gone aAway

AWhen he would ride in the Eafternoon

 I'd follow him with my Ahickory broom

 The A7pony being Drather shy

 When Ebitten by the Ablue-tail fly

AJimmy crack corn, and EI don't care

 Jimmy crack corn, and AI don't care

A7Jimmy crack corn, and DI don't care

 My Emaster's gone aAway

AOne day he rode aEround the farm

 Flies so numerous that they Adid swarm

A7One chanced to bite him Don the thigh

 The Edevil take the Ablue-tail fly

AJimmy crack corn, and EI don't care

 Jimmy crack corn, and AI don't care

A7Jimmy crack corn, and DI don't care

 My Emaster's gone aAway

Well the pony jumped, he start, he pitch

He threw my master in the ditch

He died and the jury wondered why

The verdict was the blue-tail fly

AJimmy crack corn, and EI don't care

 Jimmy crack corn, and AI don't care

A7Jimmy crack corn, and DI don't care

 My Emaster's gone aAway

Now he lies beneath the 'simmon tree

His epitaph is there to see

"Beneath this stone I'm forced to lie

The victim of the blue-tail fly"
