The Rabbit, the Bat, and the Reindeer
Capo 1st fret
A D(open) E
Well, I don't want a thing to do with your kind
A D C#m7 (x46454)
And I ain't got no time to kill on your dime
F#m Riff 1
Strung up, hanging 'round
Bm Riff 2
Looking like you're upside down
Well, I ain't wanting to shed no blood, that's your crime
And I ain't wanting to sling no mud, I clean it up
You ain't what I'd call a friend Riff 1
I wouldn't even if I could pretend Riff 2
A A/G# A/F# A/E D E A
Man, you ain't like any body e - l---se
A
As night becomes the sun to rise
D
As dirt becomes the butterflies
A A/G# D E
As sure as though it always seems to stay the same
A
And I'll be waiting anxiously
D
And I'll be falling fast asleep
A A/G# D E
And I'll be dreaming of the day the dream died
A
Uh huh
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/d/dr-dog/113826.html ]
No sticks, no stones could break my bones like you can
If I knew hate, I'd call it love for you, man
High up on the hill, cheaper than a dollar bill
Man, you ain't like any body else
A D
Should we pretend that it's the end?
A D
Are you my curse or are you my friend?
A D
And if we got hitched to the end of the road
A D
Will you be there to carry my load?
A
I'm getting it back with that terrible feeling
D
My vision is cracked, but it looks like it's healing
A
I'm getting it back like it's four in the morning
D
When the sun only shines like you've been giving no warning
A
I'm getting it back with the rest of the leap year
Bm
I'm keeping the rabbit, the bat, and the reindeer
C#m
I'm getting it out, whatever I've gotta keep in
D
I'm telling the truth, and it don't when we pretend
Should we pretend? A D
Should we pretend? A D
Should we pretend? A D
