Credit goes to Shantel for her (as usual) great tab.   I thought this would be a little
easier, and I also think that this is what the acoustic player is playing.  I also added
some additonal lyrics.


CAPO II

           B                                     D    E   RIFF

Well you can see the neighbor's buttcrack nailin' on his shingles
          B                                        D-E      RIFF
And his woman's smokin' Pall Malls watchin' Laura Ingalls
    B                                         D-E   RIFF
And granny's gettin' lit she's headin' out to bingo

 B                                                 D-E
And they like to show off in their fancy foreign cars
    B                                           D-E
But out here in the boondocks we buy beer at Amaco
     B
And crank our Kraco speakers with that country radio

NC       B  D/  E
We let it rip     when we got the money
        B   D/  E
Let it roll     if we got the gas
         B   D/  E                              A    D-E
It gets wild     yeah but that's the way we get down   oh oh

           B   D/  E                             A     D
It's buck wild    yeah but that's the way we get down    in a hicktown

          B                                           D   E
