Chords for Chet Atkins, Mark Knopfler "Yakety Axe"

[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
[B] _ _ [G] _ _ [A] Already stricken, but still I'm a-stickin' to the things I know to be facts
One red feather in the next day chicken [E] while I'm picking my yackety axe
[A] Everybody says that I never will get [D] far keepin' out of work by pickin' this [A] guitar
Livin' on a shoestring, puttin' off things like a shave and a [G] haircut
_ [A] Money don't matter as long as I scatter a little bit of happiness around
If people keep a-grinnin' I figure I'm a [E]-winnin' with my good old yackety sound
[A] City folks go around turnin' up their [D] noses, yowlin' their greenbacks and smellin' their [A] roses
But I wouldn't trade my yackety axe even for a T-bone
_ [D] I'm confessin' I never took a lesson, all my notes are a matter of guessin'
Hopin' they'll come out in some kind of [A] manner that'll make a yackety sound
[D] So if you're in the mood and your feet start [G] tappin' and you feel laid back and your hands start [D] clappin'
Then I'll have done what I wanted to from way back here diggin' my yackety [E] axe
[A] Now I'm happy _ _
