Don't Cuss The Fiddle
Kris Kristofferson
>From the LP.. Who's To Bless & Who's To Blame


  D
I scandalized my brother while admittin' that he
                   G
Sang some pretty songs and he does
       A7
And I heard that he'd been scandalizing me
                               D 
And Lord I knew that that was wrong and it was

Now I'm lookin' a little somethin' cool
                           G
And feelin' fool enough to see
     A7
What I had called my brother wrong
                                  D
And he had every right to call on me


      
Cho..	Don't ever cuss that fiddle boy
                                          G
	Unless you want that fiddle out of tune
            A7
	That pickers are in trouble boy
                                         D 
	Ain't nothin' but another side of you

	If we ever get to heaven boys
                                              G 
	It ain't because we ain't done nothin' wrong
            A7                                                              D
	We're in this gig together so let's settle down & steal each other's song


Key Change to Key of    E


I found a wounded brother drinkin' bitterly away the afternoon
And soon enough he turned on me like he'd known every face in that saloon
Well we cussed him to the ground & said he couldn't even steal a decent song
But soon as they were spoken we were sad enough to wish that we were wrong


Cho....

  B7                                                                E
I know it may sound silly but I think that I just stole somebody's song.
