If you really want to get that clawhammer banjo feel, try alternating between the
bass string and the rest of the chord: e.g.
D G A
E---2-2 ---3-3 -------|
B---3-3 ---3-3 ---2-2-|
G---2-2 ---0-0 ---2-2-|
D-0---- ------ ---2-2-|
A------ ------ -0-----|
E------ -3---- -------|
DYou are a sight for theG sorest of eDyes
Dand these Ahave never Dbeheld
Dsuch beauty and grace iGn the look on Dyour face
Dis a secret yAou just cDan't tell
Blow out those candles and crawl into bed
Hold me close and don't let go
The storm clouds are gatherin' all overhead
and the wind is starting to blow
GI never felt better than Din your two arms
and the moon never shone so Abright
GAll my woes seem to Dfade away
DDarlin' you Asure are a Dsight
(the last two verses go back to the original pattern)
Tea in the morning and whiskey at night
is such a hard cycle to break
but your company is just fine by me
Lovin for lovins sake
You shoot me that look from them big doe eyes
like a slug from a forty-four
It's as easy as that for you to lay me out flat
that's one thing that's always for sure
