[Intro 1]
[D][G]
[D][G][D][G]
[D][G][Asus4][G][D][G]
[D]
There were sev[A]en little Indians

[Verse 1]
[G]
[D]
Living in a [A]brick house on
Cent[G]ral [D]Avenue
Gathered 'round their daddy
[Am]Tellin' stor[G]ies in the living room
[D]From a slightly unr[A]ealistic poi[G]nt of view
[D]Momma was off[G] yonder in
the kitchen somewhere
[D]Boiling up some hot[A] water for[G] them to
all get up to their [D]necks in
The seven [A]little Indians [G]new
If the rest of the tribe ever scrutinized
[D]their household
[G]Some[Am]how it would n[G]ot
pass [D]inspection[G][D]
[A]The [G]big[D] chief railed on[G]
And spun his tales of brave conquest
[D]About the moving of his lit[A]tle band
[G]Up to Alaska
Where the caribou run free
[D]See he had been there putting
[F]in telephone [G]lines
For the army during World [D]War II
Even brought back a [G]picture
of a frozen mastodon
For the little Indians to see
[D]And som[G]e mukluks and some
sealskin gloves
And a coat with beads around the col[D]lar
His wife [G]kept them
in the mothballs
Underneath the Hudson Bays
[D]And every once and a while
he'd get all [G]wound up
With one of his stories,
he'd put them all on
[D]And dance around in that [A]blue TV [G]light
Like it was some campfire
[D]blazing awa[A]y[G][D][G][A][G]
[D]Well he stamped and he hol[G]lered
But he could not stay warm
in that living [D]room
And even the sev[A]en little
[G]Indians could feel the chill
[D]And although eve[G]rything always worked
Out for the better in all of his stories
In that old brick [D]house it
always [G]felt like
Something was movin' in for the kill
[D]Blazing like a t[A]rail
Shot [G]through the eyes of the seven
[D]little [A]In [G]dia[D]ns
[A]Blazing like the sheet[G]s of light
dancing up in the sky
[D]Up above Anchorage
[A]Blaz[G]ing like a star shot
down to the ground
Back [D]home again in [A]Indiana[G][D][G]
[Asus4][G][D][G][D]
[Asus4][G][D]
Now it fi[A]nally got so [Am]quiet you
could [G]hear a pin drop
They started dropping like [D]flies
The old[G]est little Indi[A]an got [G]sick [D]and[A][G][D]
[A][G][D][A][G]
[D]v[G]

[Outro 1]
[D][A][G][D][G]
