Chords for Cooler 'n Hell - Ray Wylie Hubbard

[Em] _ _ I wrote with a kid named Cody Cannon.
[E] That's the car.
_ _ He and his band called Cross Canadian Rag, they broke up man, but it happens.

It's something about cool fun as you know.
I had the opportunity about five years ago here in Austin, Texas to do a show with the coolest person that there ever was.
Now [F#] you can say Ray, that's a pretty strong [E] statement, but there's a bunch of cool people walking around.
How can you convince me that you did a show with the coolest person that there ever was?
I believe I [D] can.
[E] And this is how I'm going to [A] convince you.
_ [D] _ [E] They [N] got this thing called Twitter.
_ _ See a little social network thing on your [E] phone, 140 character tweet things.
This guy gets on Twitter three years ago. _
_ _ And in that three years he does one tweet.
One tweet in three years [Em] and that one tweet [Fm] is, I make [E] rock and roll records.
I joined Twitter about two and a half years ago and I [F#] would go to his site every week [Em] to see if he would ever [E] do another tweet.
He never did.
One tweet three years, I make rock and roll records.
To me that's just cool.
But what's cooler than that?
[A] _ _ _ [F#] He didn't follow [Em] anybody.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Oh crazy mama, _ [E] where you been so long? _ _ _ _ _ _
Oh crazy mama, _ where you been so long?
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ A [E] lot happened, I just can't [D] see.
[E]
Oh crazy mama, come back to [Em] me.
_ [E]
Oh crazy mama, where you been so long?
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _

_ _ [E] _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ [E] It's an old tradition, when a blues man dies, you sing him up to heaven.
I don't know if you were able to do that, but this fella passed on, so I'd like you to help me do it tonight.
I'd like you to help me sing this song right now.
Make you feel alright.
Oh hell. _
[A] _ [E] Oh crazy mama, where you [A] been so [E] long?
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [E] Oh crazy mama, where you been so long?
_ _ _ _ _ [D]
[E] A lot happened, I just can't see.
Oh crazy mama, come back to me.
Oh crazy mama, where you been so long?

I never [Em] met [A] nobody cooler than J.J. [E] Kell.
Maybe [D] Levi [E] him, maybe Charlie Monroe.
_ _ _ [A] _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _ _
Thank you [F] guys very much.
I did have the good fortune here in Austin about 5 or 6 years ago to do a show with J [D#].J. Kell during the open forum.

[Dm] I [N] couldn't. _
