This is the main part of the song:
G C D
Chorus: chev got stuck and the ford got stuck,got the chev unstuck then
G A
the dodge showed up,but the dodge got stuck in the tractor rut
D
which evetually pulled out the ford....with some difficulty
G C D more rain than
seen for a thousand years caused financial joys and
G C D
biblical fears, it caused some smiles it caused some tears but more
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/corb_lund_band/truck_got_stuck_tab_ver_2.html ]
to the point of our story,
G C D
For the first time in the collective memory that old brown prarie that had
G C D
been so dry for so long was very muddy, boggy and sticky,
G C D
We'd pull one truck out and get another stuck in, and motors would roar and
G C D
tires would spin, we'd sink right down,down to the diff, we'd all take
G C
turns and do it again, till no one could move we call one more friend,
D G,C,D
come on out here we need ya, bring yer truck,
Chorus
G C D
I got me stuck in the mud so as I couldn't rehearse, Chavez too has missed
G C D
his work, Richie he now fears the worst, stood up his ex-wife she called
G C D
him a jerk, of course Holdman didn't have nothin better to do, except wrench
Chorus
G C D
it was truck after truck we all got stuck cept the big old 4x hudderide
G C D
truck, we all thought boy are we in luck but he wouldn't come anywhere
G C D
near us......mighty neighbourly......mighty neighbourly,
G C D
So we used alot of our backs and a little of our brains, we jacked up
G C
the jacks and snugged up the the chains, we all did our very best to refrain
D G C
from shovellin, We put what timber we had underneath the wheels, and we was
D G C
all outta sand we managed to steal, two sacks of the best modern canolla
D
seed ya ever did see, that oughta give us some traction
Chorus
G C D
Epilouge...we spilled genetically modified canolla seed that was genetically
G C
modified for controlling the weeds, and for big old yields and margin oil,
D G C
raised hell all over that native prarie soil.....agriculture canada is
D G
definetly gonna be lookin for us.........ha ha ha
There it is. Any comments or suggetions are welcome but it's pretty hard to imrove on
As I said it is always a good idea to play along with the song to get exact timing and
patterns as well as just the general feel of the song.I hope that this tab helps
enjoy music somehow, someway, because after all, that's what it's all about.....spread the love.
