Intro - A - D - E - A - D - A



(verse 1)
A             D           E
Suntan toes tickling the sand,
A                     D         E
Cold drink chillin in my right hand,
A                         D      E               
Watchin you sleep in the evenin light,
A                D          A
Restin up for a long long night, cause



(chorus)
A                     D            E
When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin,
          A              E7
When the sun goes down, feelin alright,
         A             D           E
When the sun sinks down, over the water,
A                                D        A     A - D - E - A - D - A
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down, yea



(verse 2)
A                   D       E
All day long just takin it easy,
A                                D         E
Layin in the hammick where it's nice and breezy,
A                D      E
Sleepin off the night before,
                                       D        A
Cause when the sun goes down we'll be back for more,

When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin,

When the sun goes down, feelin alright,
         A             D           E
When the sun sinks down, over the water,
A                                D        A     
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down,

(verse 3)
A                       D     E  
This old guitar and my dark sunglasses,
A                          D          E
This sweet concoction is smooth as molasses,
A                 D          E
Nothin to do but breathe all day,
A                                 D       A
Till the big moon rises and it's time to play,



(chorus)
A                     D            E
When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin,
          A              E7
When the sun goes down, feelin alright,
         A             D           E
When the sun sinks down, over the water,
A                                D        A     
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down, 



(chorus)
A                     D            E
When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin,

When the sun goes down, feelin alright,
         A             D           E
When the sun sinks down, over the water,
A                                D        A     
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down,

Uncle Kracker ;).... I have to know this,
because my neices and nephews call me Uncle Kracker lol...
just thought I'd let ya know... pretty good tab
-TK_Singer | 2/2/2004
That is hilarious. I see why you posted it. Good tab.
-CowboyBri | 2/12/2004
Uncle Cracker has as much business
in country music, as a straight man
in a gay bar. Good tab, though.
-WildCard76 | 2/13/2004
wetdog--
May I ask that you do not use sexual orientations in derogatory
comments. Thankyou.
-msss | 2/14/2004
Uncle Kracker is more welcome than Kid rock, thats for sure...
-Perryd120 | 2/16/2004
their both making more money than me...
-mystikal1116 | 2/19/2004
Who care who sings it its a good song
great tab
-MattMoore | 2/19/2004
yes this is a great song, the video that's
now out is hilarious.....

and for msss.... look who leaves a comment
that you dont like, and contact them
privately, do not call out the WRONG person
like you did here, thanks.....
-TK_Singer | 2/19/2004
anyone who is talented enough to sing or create music has the right
to sing in any genre he or she wants to. todays country music is
almost the same kind of music that uncle kracker sings and plays.
just about the only difference is that in country music everyone has
a steel guitar. so uncle kraker has all the right in the world to
sing any music he wants even opra if he wants. i would listen to
anyone who can sing no matter what genre it was

Matt-age 14 hahahahahaha


-ReBeLPrIdE25 | 2/20/2004
i think its great more people are showing there talents in country,
its a road of music that has no end. I welcome anyone with a good
song to play it. good tab
-gibbster44 | 2/21/2004
could someone try to tab out the solo??please:)
-ReBeLPrIdE25 | 2/21/2004
WOW GET A GRIP CAN YOU SAY TOO MUCH TIME ON HANDS!!!
THANK YOU FOR THE TAB GREAT SONG!!!
-svalen2123 | 2/23/2004
Great tab - like it a lot. I also think Uncle Kracker's voice is
great - a unique sound - I almost feel motivated to hear more of his
stuff.
-roddyreilly | 2/25/2004
I agree that anyone with the talent to sing should be able to do so in any genre
they wish. Now if Uncle Kracker had the talent, that would be nice!
-heyitskane | 2/28/2004
Anyone up to tabbing out the lead?
-quickfsih | 3/3/2004
All i have to say is kid rock, kenny chesney and uncle kracker rock.
And if kid rock can hang out with Hank Jr he is welcomed into country
more so than the dixie chicks

-W7Edd | 3/3/2004
Music is music. artist are artist. enjoy it or not. its your choice
-sanman22 | 3/13/2004
I love this simple little song. Jimmy Buffett
is such a huge influence on Kenny's music,
and I think this song just adds to the proof.
As for Uncle Kracker (its spelled with a K), I
think he has a great voice for this type
music. It's a pretty simple tab, but glad to
see it on here nonetheless.
-sixstringspecia | 3/20/2004
Like it or not, The songs a big hit. I love it.
Thank you for such good work. And I don't here
anyone complaining about Shania, or Garth doing
rock....'nuff said.
-a26emt | 3/21/2004
I will post the solo in a few days, I know
it but haven't had time to tab it out.

-jmuelss | 3/22/2004
uncle kracker is a very good entertainer and is just as country as
the rest of the "pop/rock country" stars are. he might be a little
harder to listen to on some of his stuff but he makes a lot of peaple
smile.

-hankster | 3/28/2004
it's B.-F'inS. to call this country.
-pettyja1 | 3/31/2004
Its all good music get over the whole genre thing. Good Music is just Good Music
-green_label69 | 4/5/2004
The Tab isn't bad, The chords match but you may notice that guitar
isnt the whole way through. The solo is great in this song. Overall
the Tab is good. KEEP TABBIN KENNY CHESNEY!!

-Oceancitysurf77 | 4/13/2004
uncle kracker don't belong-Kid Rock niether WAH WAH WAH! I'm pretty
sure they belong in country music more than you fruitcake! By the
way, didn't pictures tear up the country charts jackhole!?

-j4son74 | 4/13/2004
This tab sucks!
-swollenlips | 4/15/2004
By your nick we can see who really sucks.....LOL
-palamin0 | 4/16/2004
Lord - This thread should be on the boards as correspondence!
Great tab Pal.
-eric_steinmetz | 4/18/2004
Hey I don't care what genre you want to put someone in, if to artists
want to get together and create a great song like this I say let
them. This song just makes you feel happy when you listen to it so
stop whining and enjoy the music! :)

Whiteboy

-Whiteboy_2004 | 4/22/2004
Hey Pal, thanks for all your work on this..You help tons of us out
there play the songs we love. Even if people chew you out cuz they
such so much at the guitar that have to blame the tabbers cuz they
can't even figger out what a major chord is(swollenlips, for
example), much less even tell you what a harmonic is. Anyways,
thanks, and keep it up.


-motocowboy | 4/23/2004
I dont know why Kenny would pick up Uncle Kracker for
a song like this or start singing about the beach in
every song that he comes out with now. Even though i
dislike both of these things i cant take anything away
from the song it's still good. Uncle Kracker should
not be mentioned when talkin about country music
though, or Kid Rock in that matter Hank Williams Jr.
threw him a bone but i dont think its gonna last very
long. ??Kid Country?? i dont think so
-shutoutn99 | 4/28/2004
How long have you and Kenny known each other? just wanted to know!!!
-strait52cullen | 5/3/2004
Thank you that is why do this:)

-palamin0 | 5/4/2004
Great tab!

Uncle Kracker has a unique voice. First Drift Away, now this.

I am definately buying some of his music.

Thanks again.

CJ
-cjcocn | 5/6/2004
the great solo on here is played on a steel drum first... I can put
that on in a few days but I'm not a good enough guitar player to put
the second part (the guitar part) on... I'll get you started htough
for anyone that is good enough to tackle the guitar part.

-Deabo67 | 5/8/2004
i think the song is great!concerning "Uncle Cracker" and Kenny Chesney,most of my 53 years has been spent on the beach and to me Uncle and Kenny would both fit right in with our "Wild Bunch" They looked natural!
-mudbug | 5/29/2004
Kenny actually recorded this song by himself.. he played it
for a group of artists (I forget who Kenny said was all there,
but Kracker was one of them) and Uncle Kracker told Kenny that he
wished he could sing that song with him because it fits him
perfectly... Kenny thought about it for
3 weeks and called Uncle Kracker back
and asked him if he was serious, Kracker was,
and they recorded the song together.
-m_white16 | 6/2/2004
hey guyz i just started playing the guitar and i have all the chords down but i can't figure out a strumming pattern. how do you do it?

-lucki_7 | 6/17/2004
no one makes a comment avout GARTH IN A CRUDE WAY! he is the best and will remain the bes till hw comes back and dominates agin! abd byt he way this is a doog tab its really fun to play for the girls!
-andreal | 7/10/2004
does no one but me hear some relative minors alternating with the 4 chord? I think it alternates between the D and Bm some??>?
-georgeb1954 | 8/19/2004
I LOVE COUNTRY!!! anyone can love it!!! how can you not??? This song prooves it!!!
-ninethirty | 9/4/2004
this tab is ok but has some flaws listen for instance on the quick d,e,a move very fast through the whole song believe me i play in an acoustic band from tenn every night
-jrmcountry | 9/6/2004
this is amazing how much attention one song can get just from a guest singer. Uncle Kracker is amazing. You all are right hes so good he can sing any genre he wants. But one musican that beats any one is John Mayer. Hes the most outragest guitar player in the world other then some oldeies!!

-sumtingwong | 9/19/2004
Uncle Cracker is aloud to be in country, he has just as much right to play country as george strait or anoyone other country singer. By the way good tab
-vollmes | 11/17/2004
Wow, lookit all the comments.Amazing how a geust singer can spark all this argueing aint it? A lot of its pretty deep to. I think i only saw a couple of comments that had anything to do with the chords to this song. And for one, I think Uncle Kracker has a great voice for this song and am happy he did it.
-dumdawg | 1/6/2005
should there be capo?
-cruzan_rum | 3/6/2005
not unless you guitar isn't in standard tuning...
-palamin0 | 3/8/2005
the tab sounds ok, but seems like the song should be played with ska chords. please yell at me and tell me I know nothing if I'm wrong, but it doesn't sound right with regular chords.
-boazma | 3/8/2005
uncle kracker is a cracker .. sure he can sing .. congrats.. so can i .. but with a name like KRACKER and his voice sounding the EXACT same in every stupid song i dont like him.. i didnt say i can sing any better but that is why i dont have a record out ..i really like kenny just annoyed to see kracker with him .. good tab tho thanks..
-Vedish | 6/4/2005
I cant belive all the dumb ass comments comming from you meatheads that think you know something about music. I bet your momma and daddy funds your musical habit. Without your electronic gadgets and voice machines you couldnt entertain a coach roach with a scrap of bread. Grow up and forget all about the mocho s**t and learn to play a guitar and sing. If you don't have your own song on air please shut up!
-prudoo1 | 6/26/2005
by the way thanks for the tab most of these guys just add a few lines of bs and call it a tab. Keep up the good work!
-prudoo1 | 6/26/2005
Kenny C is pretty sexy :D
