[Verse 1]

C     G       Am      F       G       Am

C            G     Am            F     G   Am
The cauldron was a bubbling, the flesh was lean
        C     G      Am          F        G    Am
And the women moved forward like piranhas in a stream
     C            G       Am        F        G  Am
They spread themselves before me an offering so sweet
         C            G    Am       F       G       Am
And they beckoned and they beckoned come on darling eat


[Chorus]

 F       G      Am        C   G   Am
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
    F       G       Am        C   G   Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat


[Verse 3]

     C       G      Am   F     G    Am
They circled around me natives in a ring
      C         G       Am             F      G  Am
And I saw their souls a-withering like snakes in chains
         C        G         Am         F    G Am
And they wrapped themselves around me, what a treat
         C             G     Am       F       G    Am
And they rattled their tales hissing’ come on let’s eat


[Chorus]

F       G       Am        C   G   Am
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
    F       G       Am        C   G   Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat


[Instrumental]

 F  G  Am  C  G  Am    x 4


[Verse 4]

   C     G            Am         F       G      Am
I felt a rising in my throat the girls a-saying grace
        C        G       Am   F       G         Am
And the air, the viscous air pressed against my face
       C       G        Am          F        G        Am
And it all got too damn much for me just got too damn rough
      C       G      Am             F         G   Am
And I pushed away my plate and said boys I've had enough
      C     G       Am        F   G        Am
And I laid upon the table another piece of meat
      C      G     Am                     F    G  Am
And I opened up my veins to them and said come on eat


[Chorus]

F       G       Am        C   G   Am
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
    F       G       Am        C   G   Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
    F       G      Am         C   G   Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
    F       G       Am        C   G   Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat


[Outro]

       F     G       Am      C       G      Am
‘Cause I was down in Georgia nothing was as real
       F      G       Am      C      G        Am
As the street beneath my feet descending into hell
   F   G   Am
So eat eat eat
    F   G   Am
You eat eat eat
    F   G   Am
You eat eat eat
F   G   Am
Eat eat eat
