Verse 1
(E major) (A minor) (E major) Man,
that's pure spooky, yeah
Now, gather 'round while I
elucidate
On what happens out (A minor) side
when (E major) it gets late
'Long about (D minor) mid night,
the ghosts (E major) and banshees
Get together for their nightly
jamborees
There's (D minor) ghosts with horns
(E major) and saucer eyes
And some with fangs (D minor) about (E major) this size
Some short and fat, some tall and thin
And there's some don't
even bother to (D minor) wear their skin
(E major) Oh, I'm (A minor) tellin' you,
(E major) brother, frightful sight
See what goes on in the night (A minor)
(E major) (A minor) (E major) (A minor) (E major)
Verse 2
When the spooks (A minor) have a
(E major) midnight (A minor) jamboree
They break (E major) it up with fiendish glee
(D minor) Ghosts are bad, but the (A minor) one that's cursed
(E major) That's the Headless Horseman,
he's the wor (A minor) st
(E major) When (A minor) he goes a- joggin'
'cross the land
Holdin' a noggin (E major) in his hand
(D minor) Demons take one (A minor) look and groan
And (E major) hit the road for parts unknown
(A minor) 'Cause (G major) there's (A minor) no (C major) spook
(A minor) like a spook (D minor) that's spurned
(C major) They don't (A minor) like him, and
he's really burned
(G major) He swears (A minor) to the longest
day he's dead
He'll show them that he can get (G major) a head

Verse 3
Mm, (B flat major) this is the (A minor) Tex Beneke isn't it? (E major)
So close (A minor) all the (E major) windows, lock the doors
Unless (A minor) you're careful,
(E major) he'll get yours
(D minor) Don't think (A minor) he'll hesitate a bit
(E major) 'Cause he'll clip your top if it'll fit (A minor)
He likes 'em little, likes 'em big
Part in the middle, or a (E major) Westmore wig
Black (D minor) or white or (A minor) even red
The (E major) Headless Horseman needs a head
Verse 4
(A minor) With a hip- hip and (D minor) a clippity- clop
(A minor) He's out lookin' for (D minor) a top to (G major) chop

So after dark now,

Better stay at home,

Be (E major) ware
(A minor) Man, I'm gettin'
