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! :)

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:)
ken / palamin0 -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.

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 -coaxiebaby14 | 9/15/2008 |
