LYRICS and Chords

by Rusty Cage

 

Capo on 5th fret

 

Verse 1

There is an old tradition, a game we all can play

           C                                                                   G

you start by getting liquored up and sharpening your blade

        G                                                                                       C

You take a shot of whiskey, you grab your knife and pray

         C                                                                                     F

And Spread apart your fingers, and this is what you say

          F                              C                     G                          C

 

Chorus

Oh,  I have all my fingers, the knife goes chop chop chop

        C                                                                                     G

If I miss the spaces in between, my fingers will come off

      G                                                                                        C

And If I hit my fingers, the blood will soon come out

         C                                                                              G

But all the same I play this game cause thats what its all about

       G                                                                                               C

 

Verse 2

o you can't use a pencil, you can not use a pen

the only way is with a knife when danger is your friend

And some may call it stupid, some may call it dumb

but all the same we play this game because it's so damn fun

 

Chorus

Oh, I have all my fingers, the knife goes chop chop chop

if I miss the spaces in between, my fingers will come off

and if I hit my fingers, the blood will soon come out

but all the same I play this game cause that's what its all about

Oh, chop chop chop chop chop chop chop

I'm picking up the speed

and if I hit my fingers then my hand will start to bleed
