*Evil Laughter*
[Verse 1]
Fm
Now gather round while I elucidate
On what happens outside, when it gets late
Along about midnight, the ghosts and banshees
Get together for their nightly jamborees
Bbm
There's ghosts with horns and saucer-eyes
And some with fangs about this size
Some short and fat, some tall and thin
And some don't even bother to wear their skin
Fm
When I'm telling you brother, it's a frightful sight;
To see what goes on, in the night
Fm
Fm
When the ghosts have a midnight jamboree
Bbm
They break it up with a fiendish glee
F Ab
Spooks are bad but thе one that's cursed
C Fm
Is the Hеadless Horseman, he's the worst
Fm
When he goes a joggin' across the land
Bbm
A holdin' his noggin in his hand
Ab
The demons take one look and groan
C
And hit the road for parts unknown
[Chorus]
Ab Eb
There's no wraith like a spook that's spurned
Bb Eb
They don't like him and he's really burned
Ab
Swear through the longest day he's dead
Yeah he'll show them that he can, get ahead
[Post-Chorus]
Fm
The Headless Horseman needs a head
Fm
The Headless Horseman needs a head
[Verse 2]
Fm
Well close all the windows, lock the doors
Bbm
Unless you're careful he'll get yours
Ab
But don't think he'll hesitate a bit
C Fm
'Cause he'll tip your top if it'll fit
Fm
And he likes them little, likes them big
Bbm
Part in the middle, or a wig;
Ab
Black or white, or even red
C PM N.C.
The Headless Horseman needs a head
Fm
The Headless Horseman needs a head
Fm
The Headless Horseman needs a head
It's after midnight so, listen good
Bbm
Better stay at home, like you should
Fm
'Cause right outside and waiting there
C Am
Is the Headless horseman. Beware
With a hip-hip and a clippety clop
Eb
He's out looking for a head to chop
Ab Fm*
So don't stop to figure out a plan
N.C.
You cannot reason with a headless man
