I took ^C two ^D shots, got ^C no ^G ducks and ^D7 cold, cold
^G hands
^G Last night while ^D7 Mike and I were out ^C drinking
^Am Trying to ^D7 have a good ^G time ^G7
The ^C lady with whom I was ^G speaking ^Em
A7 Thought I was feeding her some old ^D7 line
When I ^G spoke of a ^D7 cold winter^?s ^C morning
A ^Am duckblind and a ^D7 river of ^G gray ^G7
The ^C sound of the ^Am snow softly ^G falling ^Em
When I ^A7 thought I heard somebody ^D7 say
I took ^C two ^D shots, got ^C no ^G ducks
And ^D7 cold, cold ^G hands
I could ^G tell by the ^D7 gaze of my ^C comrades
That ^Am I was the ^D7 one who had ^G spoke ^G7
Their ^C eyes held a message of ^G patience ^Em
The ^A7 thrill of the hunt and of ^D7 hope
But when ^G I spoke ^D7 again how they ^C listened
For the ^Am wisdom of ^D7 what I might ^G say ^G7
If the ^C good Lord had ^Am meant us to ^G shoot one ^Em
He^?d ^A7 surely send more ducks our ^D7 way
I took ^C two ^D shots, got ^C no ^G ducks
And ^D7 cold, cold ^G hands
(spoken)
Well the ^G lady with ^D7 whom I was ^C speaking
She laughed ^Am lightly and she ^D7 wandered ^G away ^G7
My ^C heart like the snow in my ^G story ^Em
Fell ^A7 silent I^?d hoped she would ^D7 stay
(sing)
It^?s so ^G nice to ^D7 talk to some ^C body
To find ^Am someone who^?s ^D7 willing to ^G share ^G7
I ^C know that this ^Am life is worth ^G living ^Em
But ^A7 sometimes it just isn^?t ^D7 fair
I took ^C two ^D shots, got ^C no ^G ducks
And ^D7 cold, cold ^G hands
I took ^C two ^D shots, got ^C no ^G ducks
And ^D7 cold, cold ^C hands
^G - ^Am7 - ^G
I hope you all enjoyed that goody, I know I do.
