[A7]/#5 [D6] [B7] [Em7] [A7]
Gone fishin' -- there's a sign upon your door,
[A7]/#5 [D6] [B7] [Em7] [A7]
?Gone fishin'? -- you ain't workin' anymore.
[D] [D7] [G] [Gm7]
There's your hoe out in the sun, where you left a row half done;
[E7] [F]° (III) [A] [Em7] [C]° [A7]
You claim that hoein' ain't no fun -- you ain't got no am - bi - tion.
[A7]/#5 [D6] [B7] [G] [B7] [A7]
Gone fishin' by a shady, wady pool;
[A7]/#5 [D6] [B7] [G] [G/F#] [Em] [A7]
I'm wishin' I could be that kind of fool.
[D] [D7] [G] [Gm7]
I'd say no more work for mine, on my door I'd hang a sign
[E]° [D] [B7] [Em7] [A7] [D]
?Gone fishin' instead of just a-wishin'.?
[A7]/#5 [D6] [B7] [Em7] [A7]
Gone fishin' -- there's a sign upon your door,
[A7]/#5 [D6] [B7] [Em7] [A7]
?Gone fishin'? --you ain't workin' anymore.
[D] [D7] [G] [Gm7]
Cows need milkin' in the barn, but you just don't give a darn,
[E7] [F]° (III) [A] [Em7] [C]° [A7]
You just never seem to learn -- you ain't got no am - bi - tion.
[A7]/#5 [D6] [B7] [G] [B7] [A7]
Gone fishin', got your hound dog by your side
[A7]/#5 [D6] [B7] [G] [G/F#] [Em] [A7]
Gone fishin', fleas are bitin' at his hide
[D] [D7] [G] [Gm7]
Got my hat and got my pole, headed for the fishin' hole,
[E]° [D] [B7] [Em7] [A7] [D6]
Gone fishin' instead of just a-wishin'.
