Em  G  C  D  - 2x -

 Em         C
fly like a bird
 G           D         Em        C  G  D
black feet that never get shocked
  C        Em
fried fish
           D
pluck the hen
          C
skin the rabbit
 Em        D
mount the head

Em  G  C  D  - 2x -

Em          C                  G         D
all of the rabbits that don't get your scent
 Em      C  G  D
get shot
    Em          C            G      D
or hide like a beast in the forest down
Em          C  G  D
underground
C     Em           D
in a world that's safe
  C          Em       D
there's the gift you gave

Em
         G           C    D   Em
to my beloved martha
         G          C  D    Em
a shiny gold plaque
         G          C   D
with a small brass tack
           Em  C       G    D
holds the wire on the back

Em
         G           C    D   Em
to my beloved martha
         G          C  D    Em
a shiny gold plaque
         G          C   D
with a small brass tack
           Em  C       G    D
holds the wire on the back
