[Verse]
D A D A
Carolina time, grab the fishing line
D A D A
Gonna get old Jim with the yellow-backed fly
G D G D
Bought it in a store, paid a little more
G D G A
Gonna catch that fish with the yellow-backed fly
D A D A
Tried it last June with a lit firefly
D A D A
Layed it on the water with a perfect bullseye
G D G D
Jim made a splash, gone in a flash
G D G A
Beneath the water I heard him laugh
[Chorus 1]
D G D
I go at six am, quiet as a hymn
A
Gonna catch old Jim with the Yellow-Backed Fly
D G D
Gonna catch him right, gonna catch him quick
C D
Take him by surprise at the bottom of the crick
[Bridge]
D A D A
He lives beneath a rock, underneath the shade
D A D A
I will have him made with the yellow-backed fly
G D G D
Here I am at last, lying in the grass
G D G A
A quiet little cast with the yellow-backed fly
[Chorus 2]
D G D
Felt a little tug, well Jim had bit the bug
A
Then I let him run with the yellow-backed fly
D G D
Jumped up on the land, spit it in my hand
C D
He said "Nice try with the yellow-backed fly"
[Bridge]
D A D A
Then he swam away, I gave him a farewell
D A D A
Now I'm going home with a story to tell
G D G D
I put the truck in gear, I'll be back next year
G D G A
Gonna make a fly with a hypnotizing eye
[Chorus] (2X)
D G D
I go at six am, quiet as a hymn
A
Gonna catch old Jim with the yellow-backed fly
D G D
Twenty inches long, measured with a stick
C D
He's old Jim but to me he's Moby Dick
D G D
I go at six am, quiet as a hymn
A
Gonna catch old Jim with the yellow-backed fly
D G D
Twenty inches long, measured with a stick
C D
He's old Jim but to me he's Moby Dick
