Black Uncle Remus

Artist: Loudon Wainwright III Song: Black Uncle Remus Album: Album II This one was almost impossible until I realized it was a 12 string. The C# doesn’t quite right if you aren’t playing one but you can also hit the 6 and 8 fret on the high e string.      -Tupelo’s War Chorus   Chords   (part 2):C# (fingering on and off the G string. Alternatively you can on and off the rest of D major if you can manage that. I can’t do it half as fast as LW3) Black Uncle Remus sits in Central Square Sombody flipped the Rocker of his Rocking Chair When you got the whiskey habit You don’t talk about Bre’r Rabbit. [Chorus no words] Black Uncle Remus got the death letter blues The Hellhound says it time to pay your dues You really recall the Catfish catches When you’re living in the Briar Patches [Chorus no words] Bridge Uncle Remus he moans and he sings His tears have rusted his Banjo Strings You call for Jesus or your ma maybe When you’re life’s gummed up in the tar baby Chorus (finally with words) Watcha gonna do watcha gonna do Watcha gonna do when you’re Black and Blue? Watcha gonna do watcha gonna do        Watcha gonna do when you’re Black and Blue?                               ---I know that it isn’t really too much of a chorus but it’s not the verses and it repeating.
