Whistling Past The GraveyardCifra de Teclado

verse 1 
Bm                                    Bm 
    Well I come in on a night train       With an arm full of box cars 
Bm                                    Bm 
    On the wings of a magpie              Cross a hooligan night 
Bm                                    Bm 
    And I busted up a chifforobe          Way out by the cocomo 
Bm                                    Bm 
   Cooked up a mess a mulligan            And got into a fight 

 
G7                               F#7 
Whistlin' past the graveyard    Steppin on a crack 
      G7                             F#7 
I'm a mean motherhubbard        Papa one-eyed jack 


verse 2 
Bm                                    Bm 
    You've probably seen me sleepin     Out by the railroad tracks 
Bm                                        Bm 
    Go on and ask the prince of darkness    What about all that smoke come from the stack 
Bm                                    Bm 
    Sometimes I kill myself a jacket    suck out all the blood 
Bm                                    Bm 
    Steal myself a station wagon        Drive it through the mud 

 
G7                               F#7 
Whistlin' past the graveyard    Steppin on a crack 
      G7                             F#7 
I'm a mean motherhubbard        Papa one-eyed jack 


verse 3 
Bm                                    Bm 
    I know you seen my headlights       And the honkin' of my horn 
Bm                                    Bm 
    I'm callin' out my bloodhounds      Chase the devil through the corn 
Bm                                       Bm 
    Last night I chugged the Mississippi    Now that sucker's dry as a bone 
Bm                             Bm 
    Born in a taxi cab     I'm never comin' home 

 
G7                               F#7 
Whistlin' past the graveyard    Steppin on a crack 
      G7                             F#7 
I'm a mean motherhubbard        Papa one-eyed jack 


verse 4 
Bm                                    Bm 
    My eyes have seen the glory         Of the draining of the ditch 
Bm                                    Bm 
    I only come to baton rouge          To find myself a witch 
Bm                                            Bm 
    I'm-ona snatch me up a couple of 'em         every time it rains 
Bm                                    Bm 
    You see a locomotive prob'ly      thinkin' it's a train

Verse 5 
Bm                                    Bm 
    What you think is the sunshine      Is just a twinkle in my eye 
Bm                                             Bm 
    That ring around my fingers   it's just the 4th of July 
Bm                                            Bm 
    When I get a little bit lonesome    And a tear falls from my cheek 
Bm                                    Bm 
    There's gonna be an ocean in the mid - dle of the week 


G7                               F#7 
Whistlin' past the graveyard    Steppin on a crack

    I rode into town on a night train   with an arm full of box cars 
Bm                                    Bm 
    On the wings of a magpie            cross a hooligan night 
Bm                                    Bm 
    I'ma tear me off a rainbow  and wear it for a tie 
Bm                                       Bm
