Connies Bar
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Verse]
A Bm7
On a winter's day down in Alachua
A D
Exploring the Florida fields
A D E7
Bob said to drop down for a meal if we felt like it
A Bm7
We were not too sure if we found the spot
A D
Not a place that we'd usually go,
A D E7
it had blacked out windows and motorbikes outside it
A Bm7
Well we walked inside there were neon lights
A D
and we asked her for a beer
A D E7
She said what are you doing here and she was smiling
[Chorus]
F#m
Well they don't wear suits
A
And they play rough cards
D A
They have old tattoos and faded scars
Bm7 E7
But you do know where you are
A
In Connie's Bar
[Verse]
A Bm7
She said that she was a Canada girl
A D
And she told us her Momma was sick
A D E7
Didn't know if she'd get back before it took her
A Bm7
Well the borders tough, Yeah she'd had enough
A D
The election changed some things
A D E7
Didn't know if that would mean she had to go home
A Bm7
Well I overheard her speak some words
A D
about her old man
A D E7
Said he used to wear a patch a long way back
[Chorus]
F#m
Well they don't wear suits
A
And they play rough cards
D A
They have old tattoos and faded scars
Bm7 E7
But you do know where you are
A
In Connie's Bar
[Bridge]
Bm7 D
I felt safe in that place
Bm7 D
I felt wild and free and brave
Bm7 C# D
Well I left that bar singing Amazing Grace
[Chorus]
F#m
Well they don't wear suits
A
And they play rough cards
D A
They have old tattoos and faded scars
Bm7 E7
But you do know where you are
A
In Connie's Bar
