Smokey Put the Sweet on Me
by; Kris Krisofferson

Verse 1:
      E
 	 I've known some women in every state
              A
 	 From New-York city to the Golden gate
              E                                       B
 	 I've lived with some and buddy i've loved 'em all,yes i did
               E 
 	 But no one woman had a claim on me
               A
 	 'Cause i still had a lotta world to see
               E                     B              E
 	 And i sometimes stagger,but Sugar,i seldom fall


Chorus:
      E              A 
 	 Then like a hungry man i went to Louisiana
                   E 
 	 Where the lovin' and the livin' was good
                   A                                             E
 	 Without a care to hide and just as satisfied as i could be
                 A                      
 	 A lotta women and wine and not a tie to bind me
             E              
 	 And behaving just as cool as i could
                F#                                     
 	 Till a long-legged,sweet walkin',raven-haired and Cajun lookin'
         B                       
 	 Devil put the sweat on me
                        A
 	 They call her Smokey,she's a little bit of evil
          E
 	 Smokey,right as wrong can be
          A 
 	 Smokey,she could shake the very devil
          E              B       E 
 	 Smokey put the sweat on me
         A   E              B       E
 	 Oh,Smokey put the sweat on me


Verse 2:
      E
 	 Oh,my pulse is a-beatin' to the clickety-clack
                A                                    
 	 Of this one-way ride that's gonna take me back
                E                                                 B
 	 And my body's just a breathin' in the Mississippi river smell
                 E
 	 Well my feet wasn't ready yet for settling down
                A
 	 But my soul kept tellin' me to turn around
                 E                 B                  E     
 	 And the longer i tried to fight the harder i fell


Chorus bis:
      E             A
 	 And like a hungry man i' going to Louisiana
                   E 
 	 Where the lovin' and the livin' is good
                     A                                           E
 	 I'll get a brand new bride and be as satisfied as i can be
                    A
 	 And i won't even mind the world i'm leavin' behind
                   E 
 	 Because i never really thought that i could
                   F#  
 	 Till that long-legged,sweet walkin',raven-haired and Cajun lookin'
         B                       
 	 Devil put the sweat on me
                        A
 	 They call her Smokey,she's a little bit of evil
          E 
 	 Smokey,right as wrong can be
          A
 	 Smokey,she could shake the very devil
          E              B       E
 	 Smokey put the sweat on me
          A    E              B       E
 	 Yeah,Smokey put the sweat on me
         A   E              B       E 
 	 Oh,Smokey put the sweat on me
