Intro:  Am7

      Am7                                           
Now somewhere in the black mining hills out Dakota 
                                         D7
There lives a young boy named Rocky Raccoon-a
G7                                   C          C/B                    Am
And one day his woman ran off with another guy, hit young Rocky in the eye... 

                                            D9  -    D7
Rocky didn't like that, he said, "I'm gonna get that boy." 
        G7                                                       C           C/B
So one day he walked into town and booked himself a room in the local saloon. 

  Am7                   D9  -    D7   G7                     C  C/B
A Rocky Racoon checked into his room, only to find Gideon's Bible 
 Am7             D9       -    D7       G7                        C     C/B
Rocky had come equipped with a gun, to shoot off the legs of his rival. 
     Am7                  D9    -     D7         G7                      C     C/B
His rival, it seems, had broken his dreams, by stealing the girl of his fancy 
    Am7                       D9     -       D7          G7                   C     C/B
Her name was McGill, and she called herself 'Lil' , but everyone knew her as Nancy.

    Am7                   D9     -       D7       G7                       C     C/B
Now she and her man, who called himself Dan, were in the next room at the hoedown 
 Am7                 D9      -  D7               G7                   C     C/B
Rocky burst in, and grinning a grin, he said, "Danny boy, this is a showdown." 
     Am7                D9      -      D7        G7       G             C     C/B
But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot, and Rocky collapsed in the corner. 
 
  Am7   D9-D7  G7  C C/B 
Da-n-da da da-n-da da da 

        Am7             D9    -    D7           G7                   C     C/B
Now the doctor came in stinking of gin, and proceeded to lie on the table. 
           Am7                                          D9          -       D7
He said, "Rocky, you met your match." but Rockey said, "Doc, it's only a scratch. 
               G7                                          C      C/B
  And I'll be better... I'll be better Doc as soon as I'm able." 

    Am7                     D9     -    D7   G7                     C   C/B
Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room, only to find Gideon's bible. 
 Am7                        D9     -   D7        G7                       C     C/B
Gideon checked out, and he left it no doubt, to help with good Rocky's revival. 
 
  Am7   D9-D7  G7  C C/B  3x
Da-n-da da da-n-da da da
