Stuff That Works ~ Guy Clark cover

Stuff That Works by Guy ClarkI got an [C] ol’ blue shirt and it [F] suits me just [C]fine.I like the way it feels so I [G] wear it all the [C] time.I got an old guitar, won’t [F] ever stay in [C]tune.I like the way it sounds in a [G] dark and empty [C] roomI got an ol’ pair of boots and they [F] fit just [C] right.I can work all day and [G] I can dance all [C] night.I got an ol’ used car and it [F] runs just like a [C] top.I get the feelin’ it ain’t [G] ever gonna [C] stop.Chorus[C] Stuff that [F] works, stuff that [C]holds up.The kind of stuff you [G] don’t hang on the [C] wall.Stuff that’s [F] real, stuff you [C] feel.The kind of stuff you [G] reach for when you [C] fall.I got a pretty good friend who’s [F] seen me at my [C] worst.He can’t tell if I’m a [F] blessing or a [C] curse.But he always shows up when the [F] chips are [C] down.That’s the kind of stuff I [G] like to have [C] around .I got a woman I love she [F] knows me as well as [C] God.Got a playground sense of [G] justice, she won’t take [C] odds.I got a tattoo with her [F] name right through my [C] soul .I think everything she [G] touches turns to [C] gold .

Thanks, Kiwi. I thought I would be introducing a Guy song to folks around the world. Wow, was I wrong. Aussies, Brits and Scandinavians- (and likely many more) --love a good song.

Thanks Diggly. Agreed, Simple to fix stuff is good too and getting more rare.
