Charley Pride The Snakes crawl at night lyrics chords
Start Jamming...
Oh, the snakes crawl at night, that's what they say.
When the sun [B] goes down, then the snakes [E] will play.
I watched that car pull right up into my driveway.
Saw a shadow slip away from [B] my eye.
So I hurried straight and looked in her room.
And I found out that it was my loving [E] spouse.
Oh, the snakes crawl at night, that's what they say.
When the sun [B] goes down, then the snakes will [E] play.
So I waited in the shadows until morning.
And a gun I held was trembling in [B] my hand.
No, I did not plan to give them any warning.
For the devil on my shoulder had [E] command.
Oh, the snakes crawl at night, that's what they say.
When the sun [B] goes down, then the snakes [E] will play.
Oh, the trial in a little while.
And they sentenced me to die right [B] away.
But before I leave this courtroom, please, your honor.
There's nothing more that I would like [E] to say.
Oh, the snakes crawl at night, that's what they say.
When the sun [B] goes down, then the snakes will [E] play.
Oh, the snakes crawl at night, that's what they say.
[B]
