[Verse 1]
Em                 D
Make my bed with a crease in the middle
B7                               Em
Make my home in the Hollywoodish hills
Em                 D
Make my livin’ on a hillbilly fiddle
B7                                      Em
Playin’ little runs and a funky little fills
 
[Verse 2]
Em                 D
Well I got me a gal, from playin on the fiddle
B7                               Em
And the harder that I fiddle, the harder that she comes along
Em                 D
And I gotta get happy, when we wiggle in the middle
B7                               Em
Cause that’s when I know they’re gonna come home
 
[Chorus]
D                         G                Em
Play fiddle play all day long I hear you screamin’ at me
C       B7          Em
Way far away in the yard
 
[Verse 3]
Em                 D
Well, I wrote this song with a vamp in the middle
B7                                      Em
And I knew when I wrote it, that I'd written it for the fiddle.
 
[Chorus]
D                         G                Em
Play fiddle play all day long I hear you screamin’ at me
C       B7          Em
Way far away in the yard
