The Beatles - Rocky Racoon
Am7 D7
Now somewhere in the Black Mountain hills of Dakota
G7
there lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
And one day his woman ran off with another guy
C
Hit young Rocky in the eye
C/B
Rocky didn`t like that,
Am7 D7
he said I`m gonna get that boy
G7
So one day he walked into town
C C/B
and booked himself a room in a local saloon
Am7 D7
Rocky Raccoon, checked into his room,
G7 C C/B
only to find Gideon`s Bible.
Am7 D7
Rocky had come, equipped with a gun,
G7 C C/B
to shoot off the legs of his rival
Am7 D7
His rival it seems, had broken his dreams,
G7 C C/B
by stealing the girl of his fancy
Am7 D7
Her name was McGill, And she called herself Lil,
G7 C C/B
but everyone knew her as Nancy
Now she and her man, who called himself Dan,
were in the next room at the hoedown
Rocky burst in and grinning a grin,
he said "Danny boy, this is a showdown."
But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot,
and Rocky collapsed in the corner.

Now the doctor came in, stinking of gin,
and proceeded to lie on the table
He said, "Rocky, you met your match,"
but Rocky said, "Doc, it`s only a scratch
and I`ll be better, I`ll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able."
Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room
only to find Gideons Bible
Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt
to help with good Rocky`s revival.
