Intro: G  D/F#  G    E7  Am  D/F#  G 
  
verse 1: 
Say you wanna see my garden 
And you wanna make it shine 
Say you wanna see my blue jeans 
                           G7 
Hanging on your old clothesline 

C                        D/F# 
Standing in the backdoor crying 
G                   C 
Now you wanna be my friend 
E7                           A   Am 
That's the way the cornbread crumbles 
D/F#                          G 
That's the way the whole thing ends 

verse 2: 
Now what's a little baby doing 
Dressing up in banker's clothes? 
What's a little sweetheart like you 
                   G7 
Doing with a bloody nose? 

C                          D/F# 
Standing in your bare feet crying 
G                C 
Now you're gonna need a friend 
E7                           A   Am 
That's the way the cornbread crumbles 
D/F#                          G 
That's the way the whole thing ends 

verse 3: 
Now once you had a hook and ladder 
Up into the headless night 
And once you had a motorcycle 
                         G7 
But you couldn't ride it right 

C                       D/F# 
Standing in the doorway crying 
G                       C 
Now you're gonna need a friend 
E7                           A   Am 
That's the way the cornbread crumbles 
D/F#                          G 
That's the way the whole thing ends 

verse 4: 
Someone said something one time 
But Daddy didn't talk too loud 
People oughta stick together 
                         G7 
That's the way to make a crowd 

C                           D/F# 
But here you come alone and crying 
G                    C 
Now you wanna be my friend 
E7                           A   Am 
That's the way the cornbread crumbles 
D/F#                          G 
That's the way the whole thing ends
