One night Farmer Brown was taking the air, locked up the barnyard with the greatest of
care.
[A] Down in the hen house [Ab] something stirred when he shouted, who's there?
This is [G] what
he heard, [C] there ain't nobody [Am] here but us chickens, there ain't nobody here at all.
[F] So calm yourself
[Fm] and stop that fuss, [Am] there ain't nobody here but us, we chickens [Dm] trying to sleep [F] and you
[E] butt in and hobble, [Ebm] hobble, hobble, [D] hobble [G] with your chin, [Am] there ain't nobody here but
us chickens, there ain't nobody here at all.
[F] You're stomping around, [Fm] shaking the ground,
[Am] you're kicking up an awful dust, we [D] chickens trying to sleep [G] and [Ab] you [B] butt in [E] and [Ebm] hobble,
