ROCKYÂ RACOON-Â TheÂ Beatles

Am7Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â D7
NowÂ somewhereÂ inÂ theÂ blackÂ mountainÂ hillsÂ ofÂ Dakota
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â G7
ThereÂ livedÂ aÂ youngÂ boyÂ namedÂ RockyÂ Raccoon

AndÂ oneÂ dayÂ hisÂ womanÂ ranÂ offÂ withÂ anotherÂ guy
Â CÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â C/B
HitÂ youngÂ RockyÂ inÂ theÂ RockyÂ didn'tÂ likeÂ that
Â Am7Â Â Â 
HeÂ saidÂ "I'mÂ gonnaÂ getÂ thatÂ boy"
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â G7
SoÂ oneÂ dayÂ heÂ walkedÂ intoÂ town
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â CÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â C/B
BookedÂ himselfÂ aÂ roomÂ inÂ theÂ localÂ saloon

Â Am7Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â D7
RockyÂ RaccoonÂ checkedÂ intoÂ hisÂ room
OnlyÂ toÂ findÂ Gideon'sÂ bible
RockyÂ hadÂ comeÂ equippedÂ withÂ aÂ gun
ToÂ shootÂ offÂ theÂ legsÂ ofÂ hisÂ rival
HisÂ rivalÂ itÂ seemsÂ hadÂ brokenÂ hisÂ dreams
ByÂ stealingÂ theÂ girlÂ ofÂ hisÂ fancy
HerÂ nameÂ wasÂ MagilÂ andÂ sheÂ calledÂ herselfÂ Lil
ButÂ everyoneÂ knewÂ herÂ asÂ Nancy
NowÂ sheÂ andÂ herÂ manÂ whoÂ calledÂ himselfÂ Dan
WereÂ inÂ theÂ nextÂ roomÂ atÂ theÂ hoeÂ down
RockyÂ burstÂ inÂ andÂ grinningÂ aÂ grin
HeÂ saidÂ "DannyÂ boyÂ thisÂ isÂ aÂ showdown"
ButÂ DanielÂ wasÂ hot-Â heÂ drewÂ firstÂ andÂ shot
AndÂ RockyÂ collapsedÂ inÂ theÂ corner
Â Â 
NowÂ theÂ doctorÂ cameÂ inÂ stinkingÂ ofÂ gin
AndÂ proceededÂ toÂ lieÂ onÂ theÂ table
HeÂ saidÂ "RockyÂ youÂ metÂ yourÂ match"
AndÂ RockyÂ said,Â "DocÂ it'sÂ onlyÂ aÂ scratch
AndÂ I'llÂ beÂ better,Â I'llÂ beÂ betterÂ docÂ asÂ soonÂ asÂ IÂ amÂ able"
NowÂ RockyÂ RaccoonÂ heÂ fellÂ backÂ inÂ hisÂ roomÂ 
OnlyÂ toÂ findÂ Gideon'sÂ bible
GideonÂ checkedÂ outÂ andÂ heÂ leftÂ itÂ noÂ doubt
ToÂ helpÂ withÂ goodÂ Rocky'sÂ revival
