I was wondering if some one could look at this simple bluegrass song and tell me the chord progressions. Its "If I could make a living loving pretty women" by the steep canyon rangers.

thanks!

alright here's what I got.
chorus

B
If I could make a livin loving pretty women
F#
I could do just what I please I could make a killin'
B F# E
I'd buy everybody all the things they need
B F# B
If I could make a livin lovin pretty women

verse.
B
I ain't much good at drivin nails
F#
or travelin dood to door
B F# E B
and I do what I got to do just like the day before


and so on and so forth, let me know if this works out for you.

oh p.s.
it was hard to hear the backround guitar track, but I'm pretty sure he's got the second frett capo'd. I figured it out with barre chords, but try out a couple capo positions and it should make it easier

dammit,

for some reason I can't get the chord's to go over the words I want them to, but all you really need to know in that respect is that the F# comes on the last word of the second line in both the verse and the chorus.
so hold B for two lines and come in on F# on the last word before going right back to B for the begining on the third line

definately use a capo...barre chords do not equate bluegrass....capo it off

thank you soo much!!

Spilly -

just use the "code" button up top above where you post, like this (not sure how the song goes, just giving you an example):
