G [Verse 1] G Well when I was young my momma read me C Nursery rhymes beside my bed G And though they sounded mighty fine D They made no sense to me G But now that I am all grown up C It seems my life has changed as such G So I went out and made me up D G A nursery Rhyme for me [Chorus] N.C. It goes bar light, bar bright C First bar that I see tonight G I wish I may I wish I might D Find someone to hold me tight G Hey diddle diddle, a man with a fiddle C And the girls sing along with the tunes G Just one more dance til you turn out the lights D G And you can shut down this saloon [Verse 2] G Well I never understood how a big old gal C Could raise no kids in a shoe G And any old Jack goes jumping a candle D Needs to find something better to do G And rub a dub dub, three men in a tub C Sure sounds kind of funny to me G So I made up a honky tonk nursery rhyme D G and it's the only one I'll sing [Chorus] N.C. It goes bar light, bar bright C First bar that I see tonight G I wish I may I wish I might D Find someone to hold me tight G Hey diddle diddle, a man with a fiddle C And the girls sing along with the tunes G Just one more dance til you turn out the lights D G And you can shut down this saloon [Solo] G C G D G C G D [Verse 3] G Well I never understood how a big old gal C Could raise no kids in a shoe G And any old Jack goes jumping a candle D Needs to find something better to do G And rub a dub dub, three men in a tub C Sure sounds kind of funny to me G So I made up a honky tonk nursery rhyme D G and it's the only one I'll sing [Chorus] N.C.
