Band: Woodbox Gang Album: Born With A Tail Born With A Tail VERSE 1 Em Darlin' I was born with a tail that's my only pick up line Am B7 Em I can show you my first scars where they cut it off my spine Em Doctor's called it a miracle but my mother wasn't so enthused Am B7 Em She never said a word to nobody and she kept it out of the news CHORUS 1 G Em I've been searching all my life for the reason why G Em I walk a crooked path and I blaze an ugly trail C G Nobody will tell me why in the hell Am B7 Em I was born with a tail ( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/woodbox_gang/born_with_a_tail_crd.html ) VERSE 2 My mother is only a few years older than her only son When I asked about my father she said don't worry about him none I didn't worry 'til I got to be her age when I was born That's when my face broke out with acne and my scalp broke out with horns CHORUS 2 I've been searching all my life for the reason why I've got the skin of a snake and the cold heart of a snail Nobody will tell me why in the hell I was born with a tail VERSE 3 She didn't buy my first shoes at Walmart clearance sales No, she bought them down at the stable and they put them on with nails All the kids at the grade school stared at me like I was more than a little weird 'cause I showed up every morning with a freshly shaven beard CHORUS 3 I've been searching all my life for the reason why My blood's as black as the back wash in the holy grail Nobody will tell me why in the hell I was born with a tail VERSE 4 So I've been playing my guitar thinking of the dad that I've never known Some old black man told me I might find him down at the crossroads So I spend my lonely days sitting in this lonely bar Thinking of my long lost father and showing off these scars CHORUS 4 I've been searching all my life for the reason why So far in my search I have failed Nobody will tell me why in the hell I was born with a tail
