Canajoharie They Might Be Giants
[E]In the ove[B]rgrowth of the under[A]brush
Shown a fossil t[Am/C]ooth which I must have dropped
[E/B]very long ago[B] which reminded me[A] how we wound up where we are no[F]w[B]
[E]Right through those t[B]rees, I'm not ins[A]ane
That's where we c[Am/C]ame into this place
[E/B]and if you squ[B]int, if you squint your brain
[A]I'll take my paints and t[F]ry to pa[B]int
Canajoh[E]ar[B/D#]ie
Canajoh[A/C#]arie[E/B]
Where a front f[F#m]lipper first evolved on the d[A]ay
When a daring mud[F#m]skipper dragged itself aw[B]ay
Out of Canajoh[E]ar[B/D#]ie
Canajoh[A/C#]arie [E/B]
Call me sentim[F#m]ental but I want to go b[A]ack
And commemorate the pla[F#m]ce with a historical p[B]laque
[E]It's as if a fi[B]n, reaching from the sw[A]amp
Grabbed me by my a[Am/C]rm, tried to pull me in
[E/B]But my arm was stro[B]ng
And the fin was an in[A]accurately reconstructed f[F]ake [B]
[E]It was right through those tre[B]es, I'm not ins[A]ane
That's where the f[Am/C]in tried to drag me in
[E/B]Don't look at me, lo[B]ok at where I'm pointing
[A]Close your eyes, see what [F]I see [B]
Canajoh[E]ar[B/D#]ie
Canajoh[A/C#]arie [E/B]
I get the creeping f[F#m]eeling all my old friends are g[A]one
And that this baby t[F#m]ooth no longer fits in my sk[B]ull
bridge:
[G] [Am] [C] [Am] [C] [Am] [D] [B/D#] [B]
[E]If you can dr[B]aw it in the a[A]ir
Or write it dow[Am/C]n, then you weren't there
[E/B]What's gone is mute
[B]Someone changed the truth
[A]They smoked the proof
And there's no[F]thing left o[B]f
Canajoh[E]ar[B/D#]ie
Canajoh[A/C#]arie [E/B]
Where a front f[F#m]lipper first evolved on the [A]day
When a daring m[F#m]udskipper dragged itself a[B]way
Where a rocket [F#m]ship experiment went aw[B]ry
When the protot[F#m]ype exploded on the launching s[B]ite
Back in Canajoh[E]ar[B/D#]ie
Canajoh[A/C#]arie [E/B]
Call me sentim[F#m]ental but I want to go b[A]ack
And commemorate the pl[F#m]ace with a historical pl[B]aque
