CF
I've got parts of me in Milwaukee
CG7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
CGFFm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
CG7C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
FG7C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
[Verse 1]
CF
There's a saying where I come from
CG7
Watching pots will never make them boil
CG
When I watched you walk away
FFm
I was boiling that day
CG7C
I was burning like a hundred drums of oil
[Chorus]
CF
'Cause I got parts of me in Milwaukee
CG7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
CGFFm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
CG7C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
FG7C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
[Verse 2]
CF
There's a saying where I come from
CG7
Never count your chickens 'til they hatch
CG
Nothing sadder than a picture
FFm
Of a catcher and a pitcher
CG7C
Counting on each other for the catch
[Chorus]
CF
'Cause I got parts (parts) of me in Milwaukee
CG7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
CGFFm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
CG7C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
FG7C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
[Verse 3]
CF
There's a saying where I come from
CG7
Playing 'round with fire gets you burned
CG
Well, I'll wear my third degrees
FFm
And my heart upon my sleeve
CG7C
I'll keep burning in Kentucky 'til I learn
[Chorus]
CF
'Cause I got parts (parts) of me in Milwaukee
CG7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
CGFFm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
CG7C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
FG7C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
(Put Capo on 4)
[Chorus 2]
CF
'Cause I got parts (parts) of me in Milwaukee
CG7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
CGFFm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
CG7C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
FG7C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
[Outro]
CFC
And some day when I go to your old Kentucky home
FCG7
I know you've got that chain upon your door
CGFFm
And boy, if you unlock it, there's no ring in my front pocket
CG7C
Bluegrass, I don't love you anymore
FG7C
No, no, bluegrass, I don't love you anymore
