Abby Webster | “Tall Boy” | Western AF

[@DL-yc4pm]

This is right on. Simple story song with heart and soul. Reminds me of John Prine.

[@TrailerParkDiaries22]

don't compare her to a man she'll put you in a song!

[@whattheheckwelch]

John Prine would never say "fuck me from behind" in a song. He was cleaner and funnier. Get your Shit Straight

You mean, Iris Dement.

[@DL-yc4pm]

@@davidd7397 no, reminds me of John's writing style.

[@warrenrexroad1172]

I didn't realize it until I read your comment, but yeah, this absolutely has a John Prine feel.

I enjoy this version much more than the Spotify one. Pure

Very disappointed to find out they sound so different.

You know how there are songs sometimes that have something magic to them and you can't really tell why? This is one of those for me. Listened one time and was instantly hooked. Lovely! Chords and lyrics below and on Ultimate Guitar as always folks. Have a lovely day! Standard tuning, no Capo. If you want to play along to the studio version, put Capo on 3 Intro C F G C Chorus C F / G C / C F / G C Verses C F / G C / C F / G C Interludes C F G C (x2 in 2nd Interlude) [Intro] [Chorus] I ain't got no boy but I got my tall boy I don't need no small man when I got my tall can You may think I'm living a low life with my High Life But I tell you boy, I'm doin alright [Verse 1] My daddy didn't teach me much before we lost him to Captain Crunch He drowned after 17 or 20 beers That wasn't clear, I mean in the milk, he passed out at 9 AM And every man I've met sinced then is even dumber than him [Chorus] I ain't got no boy but I got my tall boy I don't need no small man when I got my tall can You may think I'm living a low life with my High Life But I tell you boy, I'm doin just fine [Interlude] [Verse 2] Fella found me by myself at the bar in my favourite seat Said he wants to fuck me from behind while I'm asleep Not the best opening line, I guess he thinks he's being flirty I ain't got time to talk dirty, it's beer thirty [Chorus] I ain't got no boy but I got my tall boy I don't need no small man when I got my tall can You may think I'm living a low life with my High Life But I tell you boy, I'm doin alright [Interlude] [Chorus] I ain't got no boy but I got my tall boy I don't need no small man when I got my tall can You may think I'm living a low life with my High Life But I tell you boy, I'm doin alright Cause I ain't got no boy but I got my tall boy I don't need no small man when I got my tall can You may think I'm living a low life with my High Life But I tell you boy, I'm doin alright I tell you boy, I'm doin alright

I have had this on repeat for the last 24 hours working around the ranch. Awesome song.

Like the resentment toward all the men she attracts?

[@wisconsinbred1573]

Western AF, maybe I'm just out of the loop; but, I can't help but wonder when a tour comprised of some-to all of the amazing artists you've brought to us will emerge.......

[@sethk1698]

That would be a great progression, maybe a gemsohvhs and westeraf Collab tour.

This is incredible. Sublime. Beautiful. And as a musician ill tell you this: watch the guitarist to her right, his face. Hes blown away just like we are. Thats a helluva thing. Godspeed

Will, you’re right! This is the best version and if you see this, just know you’re my favorite 😘

This the first song I have transposed by ear on my ukulele. Going to sing this one at the camp fire on my next mountain hike in the Sierra Nevada range. Absolute magic. Listened to it 30-40 times in the last few days. Thank you Abby!

[@MrShazaamm]

I can't stand modern country from mid 90's till now, it's just twangy pop music. You guys really nail it down with the gritty outlaw modern/ original country blues.

[@deadharvest29]

Exactly. None of the good stuff is on the radio these days. Gotta dig.

[@MrShazaamm]

@@deadharvest29 exactly!

[@JustDvoh]

I agree. A bunch of garbage from mid 90s and up for a few exceptions. Glad to see young talent bringing back real country. I few i like are ( ben Todd, sierra ferrell, colter wall) all sound great on friday with a tall can.

[@bravowhiskey4684]

This is so much better as a country song, rather than her earlier hipster/indie sound. She had a very Regina Spektor type sound, but this song was so out of place in that culture. I hope she sticks with this vibe, she’s really talented & funny… I think it works pretty well in country / folk music.
