Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I am an only child
Born of the wild
Riddled to spend my time
Defending my land
You are the only one
Born in the sun
Riddled to spend your time

[Interlude 1]
Defending my plan
[D]

[Verse 2]
[D]Dead dog on the highway
Median cats are growling at me
I turn my lights on brighter
I'm counting through the night ride

[Verse 3]
And it's [C]one more [G]life
[D](For the taker)
[C]Chickenman, chickenman
One more [G]song
[D](For the maker)
Chickenman, chickenman

[Verse 4]
On the road to [D]Athens
I saw a dead deer on the highway
I slipped into a desert

[Verse 5]
Five prairie dogs and a rabbit
[D]
I was running down on Queen Street
I saw a woman on the sidewalk
(Danger danger)
She was beaten by a stranger
(Danger danger danger
danger)
Danger danger danger

[Verse 6]
And it's [D]one more [G]life[D]
(For the taker)
Chickenman, chickenman
Chickenman hold my hand
[C]One [D]more [G]song
[D](For the maker)
Hold my [C]hand[D]
[G][D]
Chickenman

[Verse 7]
I was [D]on the road to Austin
Met a man on the highway
He sold me junk and conversation
He was [Dsus4]wise and dirty
from [D]the weather

[Verse 8]
I said, [D]"Darkness into darkness
All the carnage of my journeys
Makes it harder to be living"
He said, "It's a long road
to be forgiven"

[Verse 9]
It's [C]one [D]more [G]life
[D](For the taker)
Chickenman, chickenman
Chickenman hold my had
[C]One [D]more [G]song[D]
(For the maker)
Chickenman, chickenman
Chickenman hold my hand

[Verse 10]
I [D]am an only child
Born of [Dsus4]the wild
[D]Riddled to spend my time
Defending my land
You are the only one
Born in the sun
Riddled to spend your time

[Interlude 2]
Defending my plan
[D]

[Verse 11]
[D]I went looking f[D]or a car
Found myself beneath the stars
I went looking for a girl
Found a man and his world
Chickenman, chickenman
(I went looking for a car)
Chickenman hold [C]my hand
(Found my[D]self beneath the
stars)
Chickenman, chickenman
(I went looking for a girl)
Chickenman hold my [C]hand
(Found a man and [D]his world)

[Verse 12]
I am an only child
(Chickenman, chickenman)
(Chickenman hold my hand)
Hold my hand
(Chickenman, chickenman)
(Chickenman hold my hand)
I am an only child
(Chickenman, chickenman)
(Chickenman hold my hand)
[C]Hold [D]my hand
(Chickenman, chickenman)
(Chickenman hold my hand)
Chickenman chickenman
Chickenman hold my hand
Chickenman chickenman
Chicken[C]man hold my hand
[D]
Chickenman chickenman
Chicken[C]man hold my hand
[D]
Chickenman chickenman
Chickenman hold my hand
