[Verse]
G D
Sticks and stones will break my bones,
G D
But I always will be true,
G D D/C# Bm
When your mama is dead and gone,
Em A7sus4 - A7
I'll sing this lullaby just for you,
G D
So what becomes of little boys,
G D
Who never say their prayers,
G D Bm
Well they're sleepin' like a baby,
Em7 A7 D
On the Nickel over there.
[Verse]
G D
And if you chew tobacco,
G D
And wish upon the star,
G D D/C# Bm
Well you'll find out where the scarecrows sit,
Em A7sus4 A7
Man they look like punchlines between the cars,
G D
And I know a place where a royal flush,
G D
Can never beat a pair,
G D Bm
And even Thomas Jefferson,
Em A7 D
Is on the nickel over There.
[Verse]
G D
So ring around the rosie,
G D
You're sleepin in the rain,
G D Bm
And you're always late for supper,
Em A7
And man you let me down again,
G D
I thought I heard a mocking bird,
G D
Roosevelt knows where,
G D Bm
They're whisteling past the grave yard
Em A D
And they're on the nickel over there.
[Verse]
G D
So what becomes of little boys,
G D
That run away from home,
G D Bm
Well the world keeps gettin' bigger,
Em A7sus4 A7
Once you get out on your own,
G D
So climb up thru that buttonhole,
G D
And fall right up the stairs,
G D Bm
I'll show you where the short dogs go,
Em A7sus4 A7 D
On the nickel...over there.
