In the Pines

Five fricken notes. That's all you need. Also known as Where Did You Sleep Last Night? or My Girl.

Lyrics as sung by Spencer and Raines
[intro] E                   A      G My girl, my girl, don't lie to me         B7            B7         E Tell me where did you sleep last night In the pines, in the pines A                 G Where the sun don't ever shine B7              B7          E I would shiver the whole night through You caused me to weep You caused me to moan You caused me to leave my home In the pines, in the pines Where the sun don't ever shine I would shiver the whole night through My girl, my girl, where will you go I'm going where the cold winds blow In the pines, in the pines Where the sun don't ever shine I would shiver the whole night through My husband, was a hard working man He was killed about a mile from here His head was found in the driver's wheel But his body has never been found In the pines, in the pines Where the sun don't ever shine I would shiver the whole night through [break] My girl, my girl, don't lie to me Tell me where did you sleep last night In the pines, in the pines Where the sun don't ever shine I would shiver the whole night through
