This is actually an older version -- EC changed around a bunch of the lyrics and the structure a little bit, and I think I actually prefer the original. His take is also half a step off of this (though I can't remember if his is higher or lower). Share and enjoy, as always. - Brian AIN'T NOBODY'S BUSINESS IF I DO by Porter Grainger and Everett Robbins [Bb] There ain't nothin' [D7] I can do, [Gm] nor nothin' I can [D7] say, [G7] That folks don't [Dm7] cri[G7]ti[Cm]cize [G7] me. [Cm] But I'm gonna [G7] do just as I [Cm] want to any[C]way, [C7] I don't care if they all des[F#7]pise [F7] me. [Bb] If I should [D7] take a notion [Gm] To jump in[Eb]to the ocean, [Bb] It ain't nobody's [F7] business if I [Bb] do. [G7] [C7] [F7] [Bb] Rather than [D7] persecute me, [Gm] I choose that [Eb] you would shoot me, [Bb] It ain't nobody's [F7] business if I [Bb] do. [G7] [C7] [F7] [Bb] If I should [D7] get the feelin' [Gm] To dance up[Eb]on the ceiling', [Bb] It ain't nobody's [F7] business if I [Bb] do. [G7] [C7] [F7] [Bb] If I let my [D7] best companion [Gm] Drive me right in[Eb]to the canyon, [Bb] It ain't nobody's [F7] business if I [Bb] do. [G7] [C7] [F7] [Bb] After all the [D7] way to do [Gm] is do just as you [D7] please, [G7] Regardless [Dm7] of [G7] their [Cm] talk[G7]in' [Cm] Often times the [G7] ones that talk will get [Cm] down on their [C] knees, [C7] And beg your pardon for their [F#7] squak[F7]in'. (sp?) [Bb] If I dis[D7]like my lover [Gm] And leave (him/her) [Eb] for another, [Bb] It ain't nobody's [F7] business if I [Bb] do. [G7] [C7] [F7] [Bb] If I go to [D7] church on Sunday, [Gm] Then caba[Eb]ret on Monday, [Bb] It ain't nobody's [F7] business if I [Bb] do. [G7] [C7] [F7] [Bb] If my friend ain't [D7] got no money [Gm] And I say, "Take [Eb] all mine honey," [Bb] It ain't nobody's [F7] business if I [Bb] do. [G7] [C7] [F7] [Bb] If I lend (him/her) [D7] my last nickel [Gm] And it leaves me [Eb] in a pickle, [Bb] It ain't nobody's [F7] business if I [Bb] do. *************************************************************************** * Brian Davies (davies@ils.nwu.edu) * There are three kinds of lies: * * Ph: (708)-467-1969 / (708)-733-9544 * Lies, damned lies, and release * * Institute For The Learning Sciences * dates. * * 1890 Maple Ave, Evanston, IL, 60201 * - guess who * ***************************************************************************
