Rocky Raccoon Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Am]
Now [Am]somewhere in the Black Mountain Hills
of Dakota
There lived a [D]young boy
named Rocky Raccoon
[G]And one day his woman ran off
with an[C]other guy
[G]Hit young Rocky in the [Am]eye
Rocky didn't like that
He said, "I'm [D]gonna get that boy"
So one [G]day he walked into town
Booked himself a room
in the [C]local [G]saloon

[Verse 1]
[Am]Rocky Raccoon checked [D]into his room
[G]Only to find Gideon's Bi[C]ble[G]
[Am]Rocky had come, e[D]quipped with a gun
To [G]shoot off the legs of his [C]ri [G]val

[Verse 2]
His [Am]rival it seems, had [D]broken his dreams
By [G]stealing the girl of his [C]fan[G]cy
Her [Am]name was Magill,
and she [D]called herself Lil
But [G]everyone knew her as Nan[C]cy[G]

[Verse 3]
Now [Am]she and her man,
who [D]called himself Dan
Were [G]in the next room at the hoe [C]down[G]
[Am]Rocky burst in, and [D]grinning a grin
He said, [G]"Danny boy, this is a show[C]down[G]
But [Am]Daniel was hot, he [D]drew first and shot
And [G]Rocky collapsed in the [C]corner[G]

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 4]
Now the [Am]doctor came in, [D]stinking of gin
And pro[G]ceeded to lie on the ta[C]ble[G]
He said, [Am]"Rocky, you met your match"
And Rocky [D]said, "Doc, it's only a scratch
And I'll be [G]better, I'll be better, Doc,
as soon as I [C]am [G]able"

[Verse 5]
Now [Am]Rocky Raccoon, he fell [D]back in his room
[G]Only to find Gideon's Bi[C]ble[G]
[Am]Gideon checked out, and he [D]left it, no doubt
To [G]help with good Rocky's reviv[C]al[G]
