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

Verse 3:

   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

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

Verse 4:

  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

Instrumental:
G  C  G x2

Verse 5:

   G
Well early in the morning the cannoneer cried

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

   C             G
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

Verse 6:

G                C
And my darling cried, she said "Honey, the weathervane

         C/G
Lately it's been pointing the way to heaven

C                         G
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

    G               F         C  G
They're bustin' off the altar chasing Dinah through the hall

Chorus:

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