Trials and Tribulations Lyrics
by Cracker
Cracker-Trials and Tribulations (Johnny Hickman)
Recording: Open G tuning- Resonator Slide Guitar
Song Key = Gm (G A Bb C D Eb F)
you're playing in open G tuning, disregard and play your regular D
Intro: G G G G
When your only girl betrayed you boy
What'd you do with your wisdom?
Well you loved that girl again
Loved that girl again
Now who you got to blame for your trials and tribulation?
What'd you do when you find the man
The one who stole your good girl?
Well you cut him up and down
Well you cut him all around
Now who you gotta blame for your trials and tribulation?
Well I tried to tell you
But you run and hide
Down by the riverbed
D(14th Fret)
Stay drunk all night
It weren't no lady
It was a scorpionnnnnnnnnnn
Know you're just another rabbit on the run
Instrumental: D slide to G (2 X) End with Bb A G (same as end of verse)
When they drag you to the courthouse boy
What'd you do with your wisdom?
Well you curse the judge again
Curse the judge again
Who you gonna blame for your trials and tribulation?
I tried to tell you
But you run and hide
Down by the trestle bridge
D(14th Fret)
With a forty-five
It weren't no lady
No a scorpionnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
And you're just another rabbit on the run
And you're just another rabbit on the run
You're just another rabbit on the run
Outro: (slide riffing for 10 measures, then end on G and let ring)
