Mister Wrong
Johnny Hickman/Cracker
G C
Well meet me by the river that goes nowhere,
G D
Let me lay my sorry trip on you
G C
Oh won't you meet me by the river little darlin'
G D G
I might just let you see my bare tattoo.
G C
I was gonna bring you flowers but I didn't.
G
D
It's the thought that counts and I think I'm a bit too broke,
G C
But there's some change in my ashtray,
G
Maybe just enough to pay
C D
G
For a half pint of something probably make us choke.
Chorus:
G F# E (walk down bass notes)
D G
Well no I'd rather not go and meet your family
G, F#, E,
D G
They'd probably send me back where I belong,
C G
Don't wanna hear about your mister right,
D G C
He's out of town tonight,
G D G
Baby come and spend some time with mister wrong.
G C
I drive a one-eyed Malibu without a muffler
G
D
And a tape deck that works if you kick it hard enough
G C G
C
And baby if you like to read, I've got some great pornography
G D G
And a ten pound flashlight floating in the trunk.
Repeat chorus
C G
And do you have a girlfriend and does she look as good as you
C
And would she like to meet my brother?
D7
He'll be out of jail in a month or two.
Instrumental break on verse chords
Repeat first verse, chorus, end on this last line:
C D G
Yeah where I come from they call me mister wrong.
All errors, misprints and mispellings are mine and mine alone.
