Creepy Jackalope Eye chords by Steve Earle

Dm         C    Dm  Am
An elaborate tale
      Dm        C    Dm  Am
So convincingly real
           Dm       C
Things can seem so amazing
         Dm     C
'Til you get up close
                Dm     C
And see they're no big deal
         Dm           C   Dm  Am
Like the stars in the sky
       Dm         C      Dm  Am
Or the one on the stage
       Dm          C
Just a big ball of gas
      Dm      C
And a regular guy
             Dm      C  Dm  Am
Fresh out of minimum wage

Chorus:
F             G#
In a jackalope space
C              F
On a jackalope high
F               G#
I'm staring you down
                 C
Creepy jackalope eye


Many things in this life
Are not what they appear
Yeah I look like a hare
But if you stop and you stare
I'm related to a deer

Chorus 2:
I got a jackalope face
I'm a jackalope guy
And I'm staring you down
Creepy jackalope eye

Is it so hard to imagine
Is it so hard to believe
Something so outrageous
Something so far fetched
Well how 'bout Adam and Eve?

I know you gotta have faith
I know the need to hope
But the truth is always in place
It's right in front of my face
The mighty jackalope
(Yeah)


In a jackalope space
On a jackalope high
I'm staring you down
Creepy jackalope
And I'm staring down
Creepy jackalope
And I'm staring you down
Creepy jackalope eye
Freaky jackalope eye
Creepy jackalope eye
