CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] C
[VERSE 1:]
I'd like to be in Biscuit City
F F#m7-5
With my banjo in my hand
I don't C/Gneed no long vaAm7cation
In some Em7foreign land G
'Cause the Amsound of my own Fbreathing
Has been C/Eturning to a Amsigh
I Fwish that I could Cmake the time
To Gbe in Biscuit FCity by and Cby
[VERSE 2:]
Oh, the water is of emerald
F F#m7-5
And the beach is white as snow
And C/Geveryone's got Am7money
And no Em7place to go G
In a Amland of milk and Fhoney
It can C/Ereally make you Amsmile
And Fif I had a Cticket
I Gwould stay in Biscuit FCity for aCwhile
[VERSE 3:]
All the girls are in bikinis
F F#m7-5
All the boys are in the buff
With the C/Gbaby in beAm7tween
And that makes Em7three of us G
And the Amstreets are all so Fquiet
And the C/Ewalls are squeaky Amclean
I Fthink you ain't been Cnowhere
'Til the Gtown of Biscuit FCity you have Cseen
[INSTRUMENTAL:] C F F#m7-5 C/G Am7 Em7 G
Am F C/E Am F C G F C
[VERSE 4:]
I'd rather be in Biscuit City
F F#m7-5
With my banjo in my hand
Than C/Gtake a big vaAm7cation
In some Em7foreign land G
'Cause the Amsound of my own Fbreathing
Has been C/Eturning to a Amsigh
If it Fwere not for misCfortune
I would Gbe in Biscuit FCity by and Cby
If it Fwere not for misCfortune
I would Gstay in Biscuit FCity 'til I Cdie
