40,000 Headmen

Unknown


 EmAm
  Forty thousand headmen couldn't  make me change my mind
 BmAm
If I  had to take the choice between the  deaf man and the blind
 BmAm
 know just where my feet should go and  that's enough for me
 Bm
 turned around and knocked them down
 AmGEm
And  walked across the  sea.

same chord pattern as 1st verse

Hadn't travelled very far when suddenly I saw
Three small ships a sailin' towards a distant shore
So lighting up a cigarette I followed in pursuit
And found a secret cave where they obviously stashed their loot

 E7A7
  Filling up my pockets even stuffed it up my nose
 E7A7
 must have weighed a hundred tons between my head and toes
 E7A7E7AGEm
ventured forth before the dawn had  time to change it's mind    
 E7AGEm
And  soaring high above the clouds I  found a  golden  shrine.

Laying down my treasure before the iron gate
Quickly rang the bell, hoped I hadn't come too late
But someone came along and told me not to waste my time
And when I asked him who he was he said "Just look behind"

So I turned around and 40,000 headmen bit the dirt
Firing twenty shotguns each and man it really hurt
But luckily for me they had to stop and then reload
And by the time they'd done I was heading down the road.

inst. break on Em

Em
Heading down the road,
Forty thousand headmen on my trail

end on C D Em
