Song: Good Copenhagen
Band: Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans
Album: Hair in my Eyes Like a Highland Steer
Label: Stony Plain Records
I dedicate this tab to all those hard working Canadians out there
paying for overpriced dip, chew, etc., or those Canadians who get
it from the States just to save a few bucks.
I challenge anyone out there to tab out that awesome solo.
Anyways, pretty simple song, only 3 chords from what I can hear,
and an awesome one to sing along too. Enjoy.
To add a bit something to the song, hammer on the G string
when playing your Dsus2 every once in a while,
I think it's what Corb does but I'm not sure.
I also don't know how to explain it, but if you listen
to the song it might make a bit of sense.

Verse:
Dsus2
well i partied with some crazy calgary cowgirls
we ripped and snorted, kicked our heels and then
G
two told me they got olde tyme religion
Dsus2
one says she'll never barrel race again
A G Dsus2
good copenhagen is better than bad cocaine
Dsus2
i spent some time with texas dave mcdaniel
dippin snuff at nine and drinkin beer by noon
G
he'd tell me about the bulls he'd rode in waco
Dsus2
by nitefall he'd be howlin at the moon
A G Dsus2
howlin good copenhagen is better than bad cocaine
Chorus:
G
look out for them wranglers out in longview
Dsus2
with the holes worn in the pockets of their jeans
G
they can get you high up in the rockies
Dsus2
so you ain’t never comin’ down again
A G Dsus2
good copenhagen is better than bad cocaine
Guitar Chords For Steel Solo:

Verse:
Dsus2
i knowed about an old alberta oilman
chewed a tin a day till he was ninety two
G
he passed away a true western original
Dsus2
near the end he liked it sprinkled on his food
A G Dsus2
he knew that good copenhagen is better than bad cocaine
Chorus:
G
look out for them wranglers out in longview
Dsus2
with the left, back pocket worn out of their jeans
G
they can get you high up in the rockies
Dsus2
so you ain’t never comin’ down again
A G Dsus2
good copenhagen is better than bad cocaine
A G Dsus2
good copenhagen is better than bad cocaine
A G Dsus2
Good Copenhagen is better (BETTERRRRRRR) better than bad cocaine
End the song playing Dsus2
