Hop In The Vat

Bm                      Gbm      
Meet me on the log jam on 
    Bm
Kerosene Creek
Bm                                 
Where the forest lies waiting in a 
Db
heap
Bm                             
The logs rub together and it 
Gbm     Bm
burns for weeks
Bm                    Gbm        
And the black clouds choke you 
         Bm
while you sleep
D                   Gbm          
On the God-forsaken plains in the
               Bm
 middle of the west
                      Db
There's a town called Yodel-ay-hee 
Hole
Bm                            Gbm
You get there by hopping from 
      Bm
crest to crest
             Gbm           Bm
Of the amber waves as they roll


[Chorus]
Bm                      Gbm      
How can a man ride the back of a 
Bm
horse
When he can't suck the breath from a
 Db
 cat?
Bm             Gbm       Bm     
The answer is found as a matter 
     D
of course
Bm                  Gbm          
Once you drop your drawers and 
         Bm
hop in the vat

[Verse 2]
Bm                      Gbm      
A gladiator raider went hunting 
    Bm
in the swamp
Bm                      Db
Brandishing a lariat and maul
Bm                             
He bumped into a gator and the 
Gbm        Bm
gator went "chomp"
Bm                    Gbm        
And swallowed him, chariot and 
         Bm
all
D                   Gbm      
In a tavern by a canyon down in 
                   Bm
Guillotine Gulch
                      Db
A miner 49er drinks a shot
Bm                            Gbm
The night before he shoveled up a
      Bm
 talking skull
             Gbm           Bm
That brainless bone said "I don't 
think, therefore I'm not"


[Verse 3]
Bm                      Gbm  
If your dander is up and you're 
        Bm
feeling quite bold
Bm                              
Then do a chorus line kick in the 
   Db
sleet
Bm                            
But if dancing on ice seems too 
   Gbm        Bm
frightfully cold
Bm                    Gbm        
Then wear a nice pair of wigs on 
         Bm
your feet
D                   Gbm          
I'm like an ox in your china shop
               Bm
 shack
                      Db
Knocking plates on the floor when I 
curtsy
Bm                            Gbm
My tutu is tight and it rides up 
      Bm
my back
             Gbm           Bm
And it tangles my teacups and hurts 
me

[Chorus]
Bm                      Gbm      
How can a man ride the back of a 
Bm
horse
When he can't suck the breath from a
 Db
 cat?
Bm             Gbm       Bm     
The answer is found as a matter 
     D
of course
Bm                  Gbm          
Once you drop your drawers and 
         Bm
hop in the vat

Bm             Gbm       Bm     
Yes, the answer is found as a 
     D
matter of course
