Way Over Yonder in the Minor Key

Billy Bragg & Wilco

Album - Mermaid Avenue

Capo 4

G.....C

GI lived in a place called COlfuskee

CAnd I had a little girl in a holler Gtree

GI said, little girl, it's plain to Csee

CThere ain't nobody that can sing like Gme

DAin't nobody that can sing like Cme

GShe said its hard for me to Csee

Chow one little boy got so Gugly

GYes, my little girly that might Cbe

Cbut there ain't nobody that can sing like Gme

DAin't nobody that can sing like Cme

CWay over yonder in the minor Gkey

AmWay over yonder in the minor Gkey

DThere ain't nobody that can sing like Cme

We walked on down by the buckeye creek

to see the frog eat the goggle eyed bee

to hear that west wind whistle to the east

there ain't nobody that can sing like me

Oh my little girly will you let me see

way over yonder where the wind blows free

Nobody can see in our holler tree

and there ain't nobody that can sing like me

Way over yonder in the minor key

Way over yonder in the minor key

There ain't nobody that can sing like me

Her mama cut a switch from a cherry tree

and laid it on the she and me

It stung much worse than the hive of bees

but there ain't nobody that can sing like me

Now I have walked a long long ways

but I still look back to my tanglewood days

I've led lots of girls since then to stray

saying, ain't nobody that can sing like me

Way over yonder in the minor key

Way over yonder in the minor key

There ain't nobody that can sing like me
