Rocky Raccoon: The Beatles
Capo on 1st fret
E7
Now somewhere in the Black Mountain Hills of Dakota
A7
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
D7 G
And one day his woman ran off with another guy
D7 E7
Hit young Rocky in the eye
Rocky didn't like that
A7
He said, "I'm gonna get that boy"
D7
So one day he walked into town
G D7
Booked himself a room in the local saloon
E7 A7
Rocky Raccoon checked into his room
D7 G
Only to find Gideon's bible
E7 A7
Rocky had come, equipped with a gun
D7 G
To shoot off the legs of his rival
E7 A7
His rival it seems, had broken his dreams
D7 G
By stealing the girl of his fancy
E7 A7
Her name was Magill, and she called herself Lil
D7 G
But everyone knew her as Nancy
E7 A7
Now she and her man, who called himself Dan
D7 G
Were in the next room at the hoe-down
E7 A7
Rocky burst in, and grinning a grin
D7 G
He said, "Danny boy, this is a showdown"
E7 A7
But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot
D7 G D7
And Rocky collapsed in the corner. Ah
E7 A7 D7 G D7
Da-d-da-d-da............
E7 A7
Now the doctor came in, stinking of gin
D7 G
And proceeded to lie on the table
E7
He said, "Rocky, you met your match"
A7
And Rocky said, "Doc, it's only a scratch
D7 G
And I'll be better, I'll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able"
E7 A7
Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room
D7 G
Only to find Gideon's bible
E7 A7
Gideon checked out, and he left it, no doubt
D7 G D7
To help with good Rocky's revival, Ah, yeah, yeah
E7 A7 D7 G D7
Da-d-da-d-da...............
