    Am7                                          D7 
Rec:Now somewhere in the Black Mountain hills of Dakota
                                           G7 
    there lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
    And one day his woman ran off with another guy
    C 
    Hit young Rocky in the eye
    Em 
    Rocky didn't like that,
    Am7                           D7 
    he said I'm gonna get that boy
            G7 
    So one day he walked into town
                          C               Em 
    and booked himself a room in a local saloon
    Am7                     D7 
    Rocky Raccoon, checked into his room,
     G7                     C   Em 
    only to find Gideon's Bible.
    Am7              D7 
    Rocky had come, equipped with a gun,
        G7                         C  Em 
    to shoot off the legs of his rival
          Am7                D7 
    His rival it seems, had broken his dreams,
        G7                         C  Em 
    by stealing the girl of his fancy 
         Am7                      D7 
    Her name was McGill, And she called herself Lil,
         G7                   C   Em 
    but everyone knew her as Nancy
    Now she and her man, who called himself Dan,
    were in the next room at the hoedown
    Rocky burst in and grinning a grin,
    he said "Danny boy, this is a showdown."
    But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot,
    and Rocky collapsed in the corner.
    Am7  D7  G7  C  Em 
                    
    Now the doctor came in, stinking of gin, and proceeded to lie on the table
    He said, "Rocky, you met your match,"
    but Rocky said, "Doc, it's only a scratch
    and I'll be better, I'll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able."
    Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room only to find Gideons Bible
    Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt
    to help with good Rocky's revival.
