A Chicken With Its Head Cut Off keyboard

A Chicken With Its Head Cut Off

• G

G         D
Eligible, not too stupid, 
  F              C
intelligible and cute as Cupid, 
G                  D
knowledgeable, but not always right, 
F               C
salvageable and free for the night. 


        G 
Well my heart's running round 
                                  C 
like a chicken with its head cut off, 
     D 
all around the barnyard 
        C             G 
falling in and out of love. 
    C    D       G 
The poor thing's blind as a bat 
                                  C 
getting up, falling down, getting up. 
      D                   C 
Who'd fall in love with a chicken 
                   G 
with its head cut off? 

             
(Whoa, Nellie) 

G               D
My wife doesn't understand me. 
F           C
Many dozens hope to land me.
G                      D
I'm for free love, and I'm in free fall.
F                     C
This could be love or nothing at all. 


        G 
Well my heart's running round 
                                  C 
like a chicken with its head cut off, 
     D 
all around the barnyard 
        C             G 
falling in and out of love. 
    C    D       G 
The poor thing's blind as a bat 
                                  C 
getting up, falling down, getting up. 
      D                   C 
Who'd fall in love with a chicken 
                   G 
with its head cut off? 


                    C 
We don't have to be stars 

         D 
exploding in the night 

    G                      Em
or electric eels under the covers. 

         C 
We don't have to be 

D                   G 
anything quite so unreal 

              Em 
Let's just be lovers. 

        G 
Well my heart's running round 
                                  C 
like a chicken with its head cut off, 
     D 
all around the barnyard 
        C             G 
falling in and out of love. 
    C    D       G 
The poor thing's blind as a bat 
                                  C 
getting up, falling down, getting up. 
      D                   C 
Who'd fall in love with a chicken 
                   G 
with its head cut off?  

                 C D G 
(It ain't pretty)
