Guy Clark "Workbench Songs" Tornado Time In Texas Bm Well the sky was blacker than a funeral suit Bm Hotter than a depot stove Bm Hide in the cellar Bm Here comes Amarillo G F# Bm Blowing up the road Bm You got your hail stones big as hen eggs boys Bm Clouds just as green can be Bm Ol mother nature's raisin hell G F# Bm She parked the pickup in a tree Chorus: D A Tornado time in Texas A D Take the paint right off of your barn D A Tornado time in Texas A F# Blow the tattoo off your arm Solo - Bm Now when pigs fly, no I mean really fly You can bet that it's blowin hard Uncle Clarence was sittin in the out-house Now he's sitting in the yard And Granny's got the barn cat under her arm She's got a dish pan over her head Daddy's countin kids, four, five, six You better bring a loaf of bread Chorus Solo - Verse Chords X2 Hidin in the cellar with cannin jars Sounds like a train up top Hold your breath, peek outside To see what we ain't got Well it'll take your wheat, take your corn Even take the cotton balls Suck the Red river just dry as a bone And dump it on Witchita Falls Chorus Blow the tattoo off your arm...
