Bishop Danced Acoustic Live chords by Bruce Springsteen

Verse 1:

G
Bishop danced with a thumbscrew woman

                                 C               G
Did a double-quick back flip and slid across the floor

    C                       G
The Catholic traffic flowed freely 'cross the river

                              F             C    G
And fiddlestick fiddled quick out the front door

Verse 2:

G
Oh baby dumpling, mama's in the back tree

                  C          G
If the bow breaks mama might fall

G                    C
Little sad and only, baby don't be lonely

G                            C             G
Mama knows 'rithmatic, knows how to take a fall

G                            F             C    G
Mama knows 'rithmatic, knows how to take a fall

Chorus:

G                        C                       G
And the kids are crying "Flapjacks, make'em fat, early in the mornin'

C                           G
Little Jack, grab your hat, hear the breakfast call

C                   G
Muskrat, bat a cat, kick him in the fireplace

        G
There's someone in the kitchen blowing "Dinah" on their horn

        G                               F                   C    G
There's someone in the kitchen blowing "Dinah" like they're born

     G
Well maverick daddy got one-eyed bridge

                              Em             C
She glides like a monkey-mule kicking on the back slide

C                     G
Over hill, over hill, daddy don't you spill now

G                             C              G
Papa got a switch stick, he's pumping little Bill

Papa got a switch stick, he's pumping little Bill

    G                   C                   G
And Billy, he's crying "Tomahawk, tomahawk, daddy better duck now"

    C                                   G
The Mohawks, the Mohawks, they're still out there in the woods

C                G
Monatuk, Ocanuk, runnin' through my dreams now

     G
With fire on their fingertips and indian screams

     G                            F                C         G
With fire on their fingertips and feathers made of moonbeams

Well early in the morning the cannoneer cried

"I seen the sailor's warning in the western sky"

Well mountain man, if you can, cut me down a fir tree

C                                 F        G   C   G
Branches full of candlesticks for baby and me

Scatterbrains, scatterbrains, watch out where you fall

C                                         G
Champagne, champagne, a round for all the old choir boys

        G
They're busting off the altar chasing Dinah through the hall
