A7 Em7 A7 D G/B D Em7 A7 D G D
Ole buttermilk sky, I'm keeping my eye peeled on you
A4 A7 D Em7 D
What's the good word tonight
A4 A7 D G D
Are you you gonna be mellow to night
Em7 A7 A7 D G/B D Em7 A7 D G D
Ole buttermilk sky, can't you see my little donkey and me
A4 A7 A4 Em7 G/B A7
We're as happy as a Christmas tree
A7 A4 A7 D G D
Heading for the one I love
[Bridge]
D7M D7 G A7 D7
I'm gonna pop 'er the question, that question
G G/F# Em7 G/B D D7M D7
"Do you, Darlin', do you do?"
D7/F# G Em7 D B7
It'll be easy, so easy
E7 Bm A7
If I can only bank on you
[Chorus]
A7 Em7 A7 D G/B D Em7 A7 D G D
Ole buttermilk sky, I'm telling you why, now you know
A4 A7 D Em7 D
Keep it in mind tonight
A4 A7 D G D
Keep a-brushing those clouds from sight
Em7 A7 A7 D G/B D Em7 A7 D G D
Ole buttermilk sky, don't you fail me when I'm needin' you the most
A4 A7 A4 Em7 G/B A7
Hang a moon above her hitching post
G G/B Em7 A7 D
Hitch me to the one I love
Em7 A7 A7 D G/B D G Em7 D G D
You can, if you try, don't tell me no lie
G A7 G G/F# Em7 G/B A7 G A7 D
Will you be mellow and bright to - night, buttermilk sky
