Cocaine Habit — Old Crow Medicine Show
Chords and lyrics for Cocaine Habit by Old Crow Medicine Show (key of A).
Verse 1
Didn’t see this tab anywhere and it’s a really fun song, good to play for
friends and at
and stuff, always gets a laugh. It’s a traditional song, written when you
could still
cocaine at the local pharmacy. The Memphis Jug Band first popularized it,
then Grateful
and then Old Crow Medicine Show. As its traditional they are all played and
sung a
different, but that’s the beauty of traditional music. This is from the Big
Iron World
there is also a version on the self titled I believe. Anyways have fun, and
if you get a
try it out on the banjo and the slide guitar; both work really well on the
song and sound great. Cheers.
