Am        E           F          C

But call me blackjack hooligan

Am            E           F       C
I came all the way from Aberdeen

C       C       E       E       F      F       Am
To live among the go-betweens

Let me tell ya ‘bout Catfish Kate

Am              E                F     C
In the time before when she’s just Kate

Am              E         F      C
Here in the mountains, all alone

C    C    E    E    F    F    Am
Before the time we called this home


Chorus:

C              Am
Where is my angel fallen

F               G
Down at the river bottom

                 C      Am    F
And will she get away?

C               Am
Where is my Blackfoot blossom

F                G
Is she just playing possum

                  C      Am    F
Who lives another day?


Verse 2:

Am        E           F       C
In the valley that we all know

Am         E          F          C
A river bend that’s deep and slow

Am             E           F          C
Where every creature drinks their fill

C    C    E    E    F    F    Am
And other creatures take their kill

Am        E           F       C
Now Kate went to catch a fish

Am          E           F      C
To put inside her favorite dish

Am        E           F          C
A creature grabbed her by the head

C    C    E    E    F    F    Am
And took her to his house instead


Chorus:

C             Am
Where is my angel fallen

F              G
Down at the river bottom

                C      Am    F
And will she get away?

C               Am
Where is my Blackfoot blossom

F               G
Is she just playing possum

                 C      Am    F
Who lives another day?


Verse 3:

Am            E          F          C
They wrestled all the day and night

Am            E           F          C
The morning showed the bloody sight

Am            E           F          C
Kate all dressed in catfish clothes

C            E            F          Am
His whiskers for her catfish robe

Whiskers for her robe
