There were seven little Indians

Verse 1
G 
D 
A 
Living in a brick house on
G 
D 
Central Avenue
Gathered 'round their daddy
Am 
G 
Tellin' stories in the living room
D 
A 
G 
From a slightly unrealistic point of view
D 
G 
Momma was off yonder in
the kitchen somewhere
D 
A 
G 
Boiling up some hot water for them to
D 
all get up to their necks in
A 
G 
The seven little Indians new
If the rest of the tribe ever scrutinized
D 
their household
G 
Am 
G 
Somehow it would not
D 
G 
D 
pass inspection
A 
G 
D 
G 
The big chief railed on
And spun his tales of brave conquest
D 
A 
About the moving of his little band
G 
Up to Alaska
Where the caribou run free
D 
See he had been there putting
F 
G 
in telephone lines
D 
For the army during World War II
G 
Even brought back a picture
of a frozen mastodon
For the little Indians to see
D 
G 
And some mukluks and some
sealskin gloves
D 
And a coat with beads around the collar
G 
His wife kept them
in the mothballs
Underneath the Hudson Bays
D 
And every once and a while
G 
he'd get all wound up
With one of his stories,
he'd put them all on
D 
A 
G 
And dance around in that blue TV light
Like it was some campfire
D 
A 
G 
D 
G 
A 
G 
blazing away
D 
G 
Well he stamped and he hollered
But he could not stay warm
D 
in that living room
A 
And even the seven little
G 
Indians could feel the chill
D 
G 
And although everything always worked
Out for the better in all of his stories
D 
In that old brick house it
G 
always felt like
Something was movin' in for the kill
D 
A 
Blazing like a  trail
G 
Shot through the eyes of the seven
D 
A 
G 
D 
little In dians
A 
G 
Blazing like the sheets  of light
dancing up in the sky
D 
Up above Anchorage
A 
G 
Blazing like a star shot
down to the ground

Now it finally got so quiet you
G 
could hear a pin drop
D 
They started dropping like flies
