Doc Watson - Intoxicated Rat Chords

(D)Well the other night when I came in
just as drunk as I could(G) be
Got(D) tangled up in the (G)old door latch
Fell(D) flat on the (A)floor as I could(D) be

I had a little ol'' bottle of rum
And I did not have any(G)more
The(D) cap came off when I(G) fell down
And I(D) spilt it(A) in the (D)floor

Well a rat came out from his hiding place and
He got that whiskey(G) scent
He(D) ran right up and got (G)him a little shot
And(D) back to his(A) hole he (D)went

And back to his hole he went
And back to his hole he(G) went
He (D)ran right up and got a (G)little shot
And(D) back to his(A) hole he (D)went

Well he came out from his hole again
Trotted up to the rum on the(G) floor
With(D) a little bitty shine he (G)wink one eye
And(D) he got him(A) a little drink(D) more

Well he didn''t go back to his hole that time
He stayed by the pool of(G) gin
He(D) said Doggone, my pop(G)eyed soul,
I''m(D) a gonna (A)get drunk (D)again.

Well he didn''t go back to his hole
He said Doggone, my(G) soul,
I''m(D) only a rat but a (G)doggone cat
Can''t(D) chase me(A) back to my(D) hole.

He washed his face with his front paws
And on his hind legs (G) sat,
And(D) he''s a getting'' pretty high when he(G)winked one eye
He (D)says, Where''s(A) that old (D)tom cat?

Now where''s that old tom cat?
I said, where''s that old (G)tom cat?
He''s(D) a getting'' high when he winked(G) one eye
He(D) says where''s(A) that old tom (D)cat.

The old tom cat come a slippin'' in
Dashed over to the middle of the(G) floor
The(D) cat jumped over and the rat(G) got sober
And(D) he never(A) got drunk no(D) more.

He didn''t get drunk no more
No he never got drunk no(G) more
The(D) cat jumped over and the (G)rat got sober
And(D) he never (A)got drunk no(D) more.
