The Tattooed Lady

Skeets Mcdonald

key: C#m Tuning: E A D G B E
E      A                  E
Once I married a tattooed lady, (well tell me about her Skeets)
            B               E
It was on a cold and winter day.
             A              E
And tattooed all around her body (what was that?)
         F#7                   B
was the  map of the good old USA.
                           E
And every night before I'd go to sleep,  (what’d ya do Ike?)
     F#7                               B
I'd jerk down the quilt and I'd take a peep.

But good gracious alive!


[Verse 1]
         C#7          F#
Upon her leg was Minnesota,
                      B
On her shoulder Tennessee.
             C#7
And tattooed on her back
             F#
was good old Rackensack,
                          B7
the place where I long to be.
          C#7                       F#7
Upon her (wolf whistle) was West Virginnie,
             B                   G#7
Through them hills I did love to roam.
       A                              E
When I saw the moonlight on her Mississippi
               B                       E
That's when I recognized my home sweet home.

[Verse 2]
         C#7          F#
Upon her leg was Minnesota,
                      B
On her shoulder Tennessee.
             C#7
And tattooed on her back
             F#
was good old Rackensack,
                          B7
the place where I long to be.
          C#7                       F#7
Upon her (wolf whistle) was West Virginnie,
             B                   G#7
Through them hills I did love to roam.
       A                              E
When I saw the moonlight on her Mississippi
               B                       E
That's when I recognized my home sweet home.
