C F
I've got parts of me in Milwaukee
C G7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
C G F Fm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
C G7 C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
F G7 C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
[Verse 1]
C F
There's a saying where I come from
C G7
Watching pots will never make them boil
C G
When I watched you walk away
F Fm
I was boiling that day
C G7 C
I was burning like a hundred drums of oil
[Chorus]
C F
'Cause I got parts of me in Milwaukee
C G7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
C G F Fm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
C G7 C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
F G7 C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
[Verse 2]
C F
There's a saying where I come from
C G7
Never count your chickens 'til they hatch
C G
Nothing sadder than a picture
F Fm
Of a catcher and a pitcher
C G7 C
Counting on each other for the catch
[Chorus]
C F
'Cause I got parts (parts) of me in Milwaukee
C G7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
C G F Fm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
C G7 C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
F G7 C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
[Verse 3]
C F
There's a saying where I come from
C G7
Playing 'round with fire gets you burned
C G
Well, I'll wear my third degrees
F Fm
And my heart upon my sleeve
C G7 C
I'll keep burning in Kentucky 'til I learn
[Chorus]
C F
'Cause I got parts (parts) of me in Milwaukee
C G7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
C G F Fm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
C G7 C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
F G7 C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
(Put Capo on 4)
[Chorus 2]
C F
'Cause I got parts (parts) of me in Milwaukee
C G7
And I've got pieces in Minne, in St. Paul
C G F Fm
And I knew that I got lucky in the bluegrass of Kentucky
C G7 C
But bluegrass, you don't love me after all
F G7 C
No, no, bluegrass, you don't love me after all
[Outro]
C F C
And some day when I go to your old Kentucky home
F C G7
I know you've got that chain upon your door
C G F Fm
And boy, if you unlock it, there's no ring in my front pocket
C G7 C
Bluegrass, I don't love you anymore
F G7 C
No, no, bluegrass, I don't love you anymore
