[Verse 1]
              C
At first I suspected something
    A                       G
She acted so calm and absentminded

And one day I heard the back door 
shut
     A                        C   
As I entered the front, and I saw 
            A
him slink
Continues after the ad
                      C          A
Back of the smokehouse into the lot
                   C        G    
And run across the field
A    C    G



[Verse 1]

And I meant to kill him on sight
         A                 C      
But that day, walking near Fourth 
         G
Bridge
                              C
Without a stick or a stone at hand
A                 G       C     
All of a sudden I saw him 
     A
standing
          G      C           A
Scared to death, holding his rabbits
                          C     
And all I could say was, "Don't, 
 G              C
Don't, Don't"
As he aimed and fired at my heart
A    G      A
