CHICKENMAN (Amy Ray)
 --------------------
 [Tuning: DADGBD]
 [Each chord is one measure.]
 [I mostly got these chords from the songbook, but I'm not sure they're
  right.  The songbook had some blatant errors, so I can't really trust it.]
 
 D5: 000230    D7sus: 000210, or maybe 005530?    Csus9: 030030    G: 020000
 D(4): 000030?    D: 000234    Dsus: 000235
 
 [Play the D5 (and possibly the D7sus, if you use the 000210 fingering)
  with hammer-ons from 0 to 2 on the G string every now and then.]
 
 
 D5                D7sus            D5
 I am an only child     born of the wild
 D7sus      D5              D7sus      D5
 Riddled to spend my time defending my land
 
 D5                  D7sus
 You are the only one     born in the sun
 D5         D7sus             D7sus      D5
 Riddled to spend your time defending my plan
 
 D5   D5   D5   D5   D5   D5   D5   D5
 [instrumental]
 
 D5                  D7sus    D5                       D7sus
 Dead dog on the highway,     median cats are growling at me
   D5                      D5      D7sus                 D5        D5
 I turn my lights on brighter, I'm counting through the night ride
 
          Csus9    G            D5     D5
 And it's one more life for the taker, Chickenman
 Csus9    G            D5     D5
 One more song for the maker, Chickenman
 
 D5                  D5   D5                       D7sus
 On the road to Athens, I saw a dead deer on the highway
   D5               D5     D7sus                  D5     D5
 I slipped into a desert, five prairie dogs and a rabbit
 
 I was running down on Queen Street,  I saw a woman on the sidewalk
 She was beaten by a stranger,    danger danger danger
 
          Csus9    G            D5     D5
 And it's one more life for the taker, Chickenman, hold my hand
 Csus9    G             D5                  D5
 One more song for the maker (Hold my hand, Chickenman)
 
 D(4)    D5    D(4)    D5    D(4)   D5    D(4)    D5
 [Instrumental]
 D5     D5     D - Dsus    D - Dsus    D - Dsus    D - Dsus
 [instrumental]
 
 I was on the road to Austin,  I met a man on the highway
 He sold me junk and conversation, he was wise and dirty from the weather
 
 I said, "darkness into darkness,  all the carnage of my journeys
 Makes it harder to be living;" he said, "it's a long road to be forgiven"
 
          Csus9    G            D5     D5
 And it's one more life for the taker, Chickenman, hold my hand
 Csus9    G             D5                D5                      D5 [stop]
 One more song for the maker (Chickenman, Chickenman, hold my hand)
 
 I am an only child born of the wild
 Riddled to spend my time defending my land
 You are the only one born in the sun
 Riddled to spend your time defending my plan
 
 n.c.   n.c.   D5   D5
 [instrumental]
 D5                        D5
 I went looking for a car, found myself beneath the stars
 D5                         D5
 I went looking for a girl, found a man and his world
 D5    -     D5/E        D5/F#   -    D5/C
 Chickenman, chickenman, chickenman, hold my hand
 D5    -     D5/E        D5/F#   -    D5/C
 Chickenman, chickenman, chickenman, hold my hand  [repeat until ending]
