The Five Pound Bass Robert Earl Keen Jr
[E]Up this morning
Before the sun
Fixed me some coffee and a [Bm]honey bun
[E]Jumped in my pickup
[A]gave her the gas
[E]I'm goin' out to [Bm]catch a five pound [E]bass
Down by the lake side
Just off the ramp
All them people sleeping in their fising camp
Some out in the pup tents
Some out on the grass
They all be dreaming 'bout that five pound bass
Bridge:
[A]The early birdie always gets his worm
[E]Me I always get my wish
[A]When you're talking 'bout that five pound bass son
[E]The early wormy gets the [Bm]fish
Jumped in my john boat
I stow my gear
I fire her up and when I am in the clear
I sail across that water
As smooth as glass
Ready here I come you five pound bass
Guitar.....
I find a perfect spot
Some old dead trees
Back in a canyon where you cain't feel no breeze
I tie my lure
I make my cast
It's breakfast time you five pound bass
That old sun is rising
That water is clear
I watch my lure as it's flying through the air
I see a ripple......
I hear a splash.....
Lord have mercy, It's a five pound bass..
Spoken:
That's a five pound bass son...
Aw it's big as a god damned baby...

That should be a D and not a Dm... The progression is wrong in the chorus as well. Wish there was an edit option on this one so I could fix it.
