C/G
Hung by the old field
    F            C
The night in his eyes
        G           C/G
And the road by his side

C/G
He's trying to show me
         F         C
It was a lightning bolt
             G       C/G
That set his body on fire

[Chorus]
F    C
Scarecrow
G            C
Caught in my mind
F    C        G              C/G
Scarecrow not made for these times

[Verse]
C/G
Clear as a diamond
    F           C
The light reads plain
       G           C/G
In the back of his eyes

C/G
We'd never know he
      F           C
still dreams of a bird
     G          C/G
Of a terrifying size

[Chorus]
         F    C
But this Scarecrow
G            C
Caught in my mind
F    C
Scarecrow
    G              C/G
Not made for these times

[Bridge]
      Dm
Cruel Moon
                         C/G
Trying to weigh him down
   Dm
To soon
                                 C/G
I'm glad to have him with me now

[Verse]
C/G
Death coat pecked bare
F   C      G    C/G
Red collar bled white
C/G
No black heart there
F  C    G      C/G
No bark and no bite

[Chorus]
          F    C
Just this Scarecrow
G            C
Caught in my mind
F    C
Scarecrow
    G              C/G
Not made for these time
