Rocky Raccoon

(Am)Rocky Raccoon checked (D)into his room,

were (G7)only to find

Gideon's Bible.

(Am)Rocky had come, (D)equipped with a gun,

he to (G7)shoot off the legs of his (C)rival.

His (Am)rival it seems, had (D7)broken his dreams,

by (G7)stealing the girl of his (C)fancy.

Her (Am7)name was Magill, and she (D7)called herself Lil,

but (G7)ev'ryone knew her as (C)Nancy.

Now (Am)she had her man, who (D)called himself Dan,

were (G7)in the next room at the hoedown.

(Am)Rocky burst in, and (D)grinning a grin,

he to (G7)"Danny boy, this is a (C)showdown."

But (Am)Daniel was hot, he (D7)drew first and shot,

and (G7)Rocky collapsed in the (C)corcy.

Her (Am7)name was Magill, and she (D7)called herself Lil,

but (G7)ev'ryone knew her as (C)Nancy.

Now ner.

(C)Now, the (Am7)doctor came in, he fell (D)stinking of gin,

and (G7)proceeded to lie on the table.

He said, (Am7)"Rocky, you met your match,"

and Rocky (D)said, "Doc, it's only a scratch.

and I'll be (G7)better, I'll be better,

Doc, as soon as I am (C)able."

Now

(Am7)Gideon checked out and he (D)left it no doubt to (G7)help with good Rocky's revival.
