Rocky Racoon

Jack Johnson

Text File

This is the cover of the Beatles song 'Rocky Racoon' performed by Jack Johnson. I 
watched the youtube video where he plays at iHeartradio to figure out the chords. I'm not 
completely sure about the strumming so you have to figure that part out for your self.


Chords are:

    Fm       B       E       A        A*
e|--2--------2-------0-------5--------5--------------------------------------|
B|--2--------4-------0-------5--------5--------------------------------------|
G|--2--------4-------1-------6--------6--------------------------------------|
D|--4--------4-------2-------7--------7--------------------------------------|
A|--4--------2-------2-------7--------7--------------------------------------|
E|--2--------x-------0-------5--------4--------------------------------------|



Fm
Now somewhere in the black mining hills of Dakota

B
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon

E
And one day his woman ran off with another guy

A                           A*
Hit young Rocky in the eye

Fm
Rocky didn't like that

        B
He said I'm gonna get that boy

       E
So one day he walked into town

                             A                A*
Booked himself a room in the local saloon.




Fm            B
Rocky Raccoon checked into his room

E                             A     A*
Only to find Gideon's bible

Fm             B
Rocky had come equipped with a gun

E                                  A     A*
To shoot off the legs of his rival

Fm                 B
His rival it seems had broken his dreams


E                                 A      A*
By stealing the girl of his fancy.

Fm                 B
Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil

E                              A      A*
But everyone knew her as Nancy.

Fm                  B
Now she and her man who called himself Dan

E                                    A     A*
Were in the next room at the hoedown

Fm             B
Rocky burst in and grinning a grin

E                                    A     A*
He said Danny boy this is a showdown

Fm                 B
But Daniel was hot-he drew first and shot

E                                  A     A*
And Rocky collapsed in the corner.




Fm                 B
The doctor came in stinking of gin

E                                 A     A*
And proceeded to lie on the table

Fm
He said Rocky you met your match

B
And Rocky said, Doc it's only a scratch

E                                                A         A*
And I'll be better I'll be better doc as soon as I am able.




Fm                B
Now Rocky Raccoon he fell back in his room

E                           A    A*
Only to find Gideon's bible

Fm                 B
Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt

E                             A      A*
To help with good Rocky's revival.


Fm B E A A* x2
Dududududududu
