Halloween In July

                Em
Well, there's a lot of trees in the 
woods
                           C7
Maybe among them there's a pair of 
wild wide eyes
          Em
You never cross my path like you 
should
                       C7
I must miss you almost every time I 
go outside


           Em
I hear you sharpen your knife
            C7
You keep me up at night
             Em
You watch me turn off my lights
       B                B7
What a fright, what a delight
                  Em
On Halloween in July

          C7
What a surprise
            Em
Knock on my window
                  B
Did it cross your mind
                       B7
That I might let you inside
                  Em
On Halloween in July?

    Em
The sheriff is coming, the sheriff 
is here
              C7
He drives his car up and down my 
street
                    Em
The neighbors don't call on 
authority for much 'round here
C7
Certainly not the rustling leaves

        G
But she made an exception
           B7
'Cause she had a suspicion
     Em                         
That something in the forest was 
 C
wrong
      G
So he checked on up on us
B7
Checked on the chickens
            Em                     
He got back in the car and he drove
  C7
 along
               Em
Halloween in July

     Em
It's hit on the highway with my 
windows down
        C7
Blaring music while I floor it and 
swerve
              Em
And you could get me right then if 
you wanted an end
        C7
But you don't seem to have the nerve
           G                   
Maybe it's not about nerve it's 
       B7
about how it gets done
          C                        
I catch a glimpse of you but when I
      C7
 look back you're gone
             Em
You catch my eye
                     B7
And then you run and hide
   C7           Em
On Halloween in July


              Em
And there's a lot of trees in the 
woods
                               C7
But I can still feel your eyes on me
 from way out there
           Em
I face the window to change but then
        C7
I face away from you to put up my 
hair
              G
You strain to hear my breath
         B7
Over the sound of death
         C                    C7
Over the bats that live in my walls 
(Oh, I'm so small)


                   C    B7
Footsteps down the hall
                 Em
Halloween in July
         C7
What a delight
       Em
Ask me nicely
                  C7
Did it cross your mind
                     B7
That I might let you inside
                  Em
On Halloween in July?
