Big Bay Shuffle Chords & Lyrics - Jeff Daniels

[D]I wanna tell you a story about a trip I took a little while[G] ago
[D]Across that Mackinaw Bridge right past the S[A7]ault (Soo)
[D]There’s nothing ‘round but logging trucks and p[G]asty shops
[E7] [A7]
17,000 tourists takin’ snapshots of the view from Route 2
[D]Oh my Lord, I was getting’ kind of thi[G]rsty
[D]And they say in Marquett the Sunset beer tastes f[A7]ine
[D]So I shut her down outside the Lumberjack Ta[G]vern
[E7]Walked in through the screen door
[A7]Nearly blew my down state mind
Oh my L[D]ord, she was over by the j[G]ukebox
[D]Shuckin’ and a-chuckin’ and a-jivin’ to beat the b[A7]and
[D]Well, I put two beers on the table close enough to [G]touch her
[E7]She’d plate another quarter and pick four more tunes
[A7]Then walked right over and took my hand
And said, [D]Hey, Let’s do the Big Bay [G]Shuffle
[D]Get your feet and fingers movin’ r[A7]ight
Said, [D]Hey, let’s do the Big Bay S[G]huffle
[A7]We’ll be Big Bay Shufflin’ all [D]night
[D]She shuffled to the left, shuffled to the right
Then she shook her[G] hands
Said, B[D]oy, now I’ll show you what that jukebox ca[A7]n do
[D]So I moved to my left, moved to my right
Then I [G]waved my hands
[E7]Inside a minute I was so damn good
I could [A7]shuffle all the way to Kalamazoo
Said, [D]Hey, let’s do the Big Bay S[G]huffle
[D]Get your feet and fingers movin’ r[A7]ight
Said, [D]Hey, let’s do the Big Bay [G]Shuffle
[A7] [D]
You’ll be Big Bay Shufflin’ all night

[INSTRUMENTAL]

After fif[D]teen minutes that bar was filled with re[G]sidents
[D]‘Bout 4am, no one was tired y[A7]et
[D]Big Bay was alive, a-kickin’ and a-[G]grinnin’
[E7]Just in there boogeyin’ to Engelbert Humperdinck and
[A7]Conway Twitty and Tammy Wynett
Said, [D]Hey, let’s do the Big Bay [G]Shuffle
[D]Get your feet and fingers movin’ r[A7]ight
Said, He[D]y, let’s do the Big Bay [G]Shuffle
[A7]You’ll be Big Bay Shufflin’ all[D] night
