If you really want to get that clawhammer banjo feel, try alternating between the
bass string and the rest of the chord: e.g.
C F G
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---- -------|
CYou are a sight for theF sorest of eCyes
Cand these Ghave never Cbeheld
Csuch beauty and grace iFn the look on Cyour face
Cis a secret yGou just cCan'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
FI never felt better than Cin your two arms
and the moon never shone so Gbright
FAll my woes seem to Cfade away
CDarlin' you Gsure are a Csight
(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
