Gulf Moon by Kenny Chesney
Gulf Moon
Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Key: G
[Intro]
G D/F# Em C C D G
[Verse]
G D/F#
A corner dive down on the square
Em C
Where the windows hang with a neon flare
D
Regulars shoot horse and pool
G
While the barmaid wishes the place half full
D/F#
She works the jar with a discount flirt
Em C
A faded Houston Oilers shirt
D
While an old crow sings down on the stage
G D/F#
Thumbing the chords on a crinkled page
Em C
He plays his Zevon tune
D
Beneath a gulf moon
[Instrumental]
G D/F# Em C C D G
[Verse]
G D/F#
Take a walk down along the wall
Em C
You'll go right on past the carnival
D
Hand in hand with the keeper kind
G
The kind that ties to the ties that bind
D/F#
Don't care for the carnie man
Em C
Or the fortune teller that reads your hand
D
You just beeline for a bungalow
G
Where the curtains flutter
D/F#
And candles glow
Em C
In the heart of June
D G
Beneath a gulf moon
[Chorus]
D G
And here I'm on a midnight porch
C
Looking up at a butane torch
D G
That hangs behind a black expanse
C Em
Where stars flicker and planets dance
D G
And it's probably time I pack it in
C
With a glass half-full of Jameson
Em
Well I was born to croon
C
I might as well
D
Beneath a gulf moon
[Instrumental]
G D/F# Em C C D G
[Verse]
G
Down by the jetty
D/F#
Near the Balinese Pier
Em C
The curmudgeons drink the yellow belly beer
D
And they bitch about the price of gas
G
And the fish that they can't seem to catch
D/F#
They blame it on the islands way down south
Em C
From the bayou marsh and the delta mouth
D
Where the choppers roll and the tankers come
G D/F#
In a midnight daze for the oil drum
Em C
They can't leave too soon
D
Beneath a gulf moon
