Greatest Show On Earth Chords & Lyrics - Radney Foster

[Here we go]

[INTRO]

[C] [Am] [C] [Am]

[VERSE 1]

[C]Pot luck supper and barbecue
A [Am]cooler full of beer one for sodas too
Us [F]kids chasing fireflies with no shoes
[G]Saturday sundown
[C]Momma hollerin' y'all wash up
[Am]Clean that plate with your cornbread crust
[F]Don't drink from daddy's dixie cup
Oh the [G]guitars are comin' out

[CHORUS]

[F]When those cedar planks rattled and moaned

Rocked and rolled to a country song
On a [C]couple of Sunburst Flattops
And a [Em]hand-me-down mandolin
[F]Sometimes they had the chords half wrong

We laughed and cried, sang along
[C]Family friends harmony
And [Em]goosebumps on my skin
[F]You can't put a [G]price on [C]what those [C/B]nights were [Am]worth
It was the [F]greatest, the [G]greatest show on [C]Earth[C/B] [Am]

[VERSE 2]

[C]Some sang low some high and lonesome
W[Am]ill that circle be unbroken
[F]Grab a part if you know one
Or [G]clap along instead
[C]Son if you want to touch a guitar, ask
Sister [Am]sleepin' in Aunt Kate's lap
I'd [F]shake it like Elvis just to make 'em laugh
[G]Before I went to bed

[CHORUS]

[F]When those cedar planks rattled and moaned

Rocked and rolled to a country song
On a [C]couple of Sunburst Flattops
And a [Em]hand-me-down mandolin
[F]Sometimes they had the chords half wrong

We laughed and cried, sang along
[C]Family friends harmony
And [Em]goosebumps on my skin
[F]You can't put a [G]price on [C]what those [C/B]nights were [Am]worth
It was the [F]greatest, the [G]greatest show on [C]Earth[C/B] [Am]

[BRIDGE]

[F]Take a little break
[G]Talk a little fishin'
L[C]et the crickets sing the [Am]intermission
[F]I'd drift off to dreamland
[F]And they'd [G]fire it up again

[CHORUS]

[F]When those cedar planks rattled and moaned

Rocked and rolled to a country song
On a [C]couple of Sunburst Flattops
And a [Em]hand-me-down mandolin
[F]Sometimes they had the chords half wrong

We laughed and cried, sang along
[C]Family friends harmony
And [Em]goosebumps on my skin
[F]You can't put a [G]price on [C]what those [C/B]nights were [Am]worth
It was the [F]greatest, the [G]greatest show on [C]Earth[C/B] [Am]
It was the [F]greatest, the [G]greatest show on [C]Earth[C/B] [Am]
It was the [F]greatest, the [G]greatest show on [C]Earth
