Tarbelly And Featherfoot Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Tarbelly stood in the [G]door,
eyes bulging [D]out
Body like [G]a statue
Hands high on his hips and [D]his mouth
While his mouth drooling [G]like a leaky spout

[Verse 2]
[D]Looking for something
[C]from another day
[D]A day when she could [A]ask him,
and he would want to [D]play, hey
[G]Hey, [D]hey[G]
Born to [D]play
Hey- hey- hey
[G]

[Verse 3]
[D]Thump, thump, down the stairs he came
[C]She heard him coming,
she [G]stood there just the same

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D]

[Verse 4]
Featherfoot walked [D]right past
Tarbelly into the kit[C]chen
[D]Made and ate three sandwiches
Drank a pot of coffee
[C]and a bottle of Absolut Vodka
[D]Heard his toes and his
hair and his clothes
Made three [C]phone calls and answered six,
all on her charge card

[Verse 5]
And all [D]the while Tarbelly stood in [G]the door
His eyes were bulging [D]out
Hands high on his hips,
body like [G]a statue
Mouth drooling like a leaky [D]spout
Eyes bulging out, body [G]like a statue
Drooling like a leaky [D]spout

[Verse 6]
[D]Now Featherfoot got to thinking
he'd like to go [C]out
But Tarbelly stood there in the [D]way
And he [C]thought,
and he thought of a game he used [D]to play
In his youth,
called "Swinging [C]the Statue"

[Verse 7]
And [C]he [D]took Tarbelly by the wrists
And he car[C]ried her out into the yard
And [A]round, and round,
and round he swung
And round, and round,
and round he swung
And round, and round he swung
And then he let her [D]fly

[Verse 8]
[D]Fly, fly, way up [G]high
Over the hills she [D]flew
And where she stopped, no one can [G]say
You can't chase a shadow across a [D]day
You can't chase a shadow across a [G]day
You can't chase a shadow across a [D]day
You can't get love without
giving [G]it away

[Outro 1]
Giving it away
[D][D][D]
