_ _ [Em] _ _ _ [D] _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ I [G] dreamed I was an _ _ _ Eskimo. _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ [D] _ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ [Em] _
_ _ [D] Frozen _ _ [G] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [D] _
wind began to blow. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _
_ [D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
Under my boots and [Gbm] around my toe.
_ [D] _
_ [Em] _ _ The _ _ frost had [Dm] been around [G] below. _ _
_ It _ _ [D] was a hundred [Em] degrees, low zero.
[D] _ _ [C] _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ [D] _ _ [Ab] And my mama cried, she [D] said,
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [G] Woooooo.
_ And [D] my mama cried, she said, _ _ _
Woooooo. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ _
Nanook, Nanook, [D] _ _ Nanook. _
_ _ Don't be a naughty [G] Eskimo.
[Bm] Oow, oow, oow.
_ [G] _ _ _
[D] Oow, oow, [G] oow, daddy. _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ Save your money, [Bm] don't go to the show.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ [B] Well, I [D] turned [Em] around and I said,
[D] _ _ [Ebm] Oh, _ [E] _ [D] oh.
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [D] Well, I turned around _ and I said,
[Em] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[E] Oh, _ oh.
[D] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] Watch [D] _ _ [C] _ _ [A] _ _
[Gb] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [Db] _ [D] _
_ _ out where the huskies go,
and don't you eat that yellow snow.
Watch out where the huskies go,
and don't you eat that yellow snow.
[F] _ [Eb] _ _ Well, right about that time, people,
_ [B] _ _ _ [Ebm]
a fur trapper,
_ _ _ [B] who was strictly from commercial,
_ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [Db] _ _ [B] _ [Gbm] _ _
_ [Ebm] strictly commercial,
_ had the unmitigated [Gbm] audacity
to jump up from behind my igloo,
[Dbm] _ [Dm] _ [Ebm] _ _ [F] and he said, Peek-a-boo,
[G] [Gbm] Peek-a-boo.
_ [B] _ [Abm] And then he [Db] started into whippin' on my favorite [C] baby's seam,
_ [Eb] _
_ _ _ with a lead-filled snowshoe.
_ _ [A] _ [Gbm] Snowshoe.
I said,
[Ebm] _
_ [Bb] with a [Ab] lead- [Eb] lead- _ [Ebm] lead-filled _ lead-filled
with a lead-filled [Eb] _ snowshoe.
Snowshoe.
[Gb] He said, Peek-a-boo,
Peek-a-boo.
With a [Ab] lead [Ebm]- _ lead- lead- _ lead-filled [Db] lead-filled [Gbm] snowshoe.
He said, Peek-a [Gb]-boo,
Peek-a-boo.
[Bb] He went right outside the head of [Gb] my favorite baby's seam
with a lead-filled snowshoe.
_ And he hit him on the [Ebm] nose.
Push.
And he hit him on the pin.
[Gbm] Push.
_ And he hit him and he [Ebm] hurt him, and you know,
_ [Abm] that got me just about as evil as [Gbm] an Eskimo boy can be.
[Ebm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
[Ebm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] Whereupon I proceeded to
_ take [Gbm] my patented nanook of the north,
whale-glover mitten,
and I bent down and I reached down,
and I scooped down and I gathered up a generous mitten
full of the deadly
[Ebm] _ _ _ _ [B] yellow [A] _ _ _ _ [B] snow.
[Ab] _ _ [Ebm] _
_ Deadly yellow [Bb] snow from [Gbm] right there where the huskies go.
_ _ _ [Eb] _ And then I proceeded [Dbm] to rub it all [Gbm] into his beady little eyes
with a vigorous circular motion
[Ebm] hitherto unknown to the citizens of Philadelphia,
but destined to take the [Gbm] place of the mud shark in your mythology.
Here he goes, the [Ebm] vigorous circular motion.
Rub it.
_ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Yes, I gave it to [B] him.
I certainly did.
_ _ And then I [Eb] pounced. _ _
Pounced.
[B] And I pounced again.
Pounced. _
[Ebm] Jumped up and down the chest of arms.
_ _ [B]
Ripped.
_ Ripped.
_ [Eb] _ _
I did [Em] take the bird trapper.
_ [B] _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ Yes, _ I sure [Abm] did.
[Gbm] And he got up [N] off the ground and he looked around,
[Eb] _ and these were the [Bb] _ words [A] that he spoke.
He said,
[B] _ I [Abm] can't see.
_ _ [Ebm] You're [B] moving. _ _
_ [Ebm] _ _ _ You're moving.
_ _ _ [Abm] _ _ [Gb] _ _
Oh, [Eb] I [Ebm] can't see. You're moving. _
_ _ _ _ Oh, I [Eb] can't see.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
[Abm] It took a dog to a [Eb] snow [Cm] cone and [B] sniffed it and shrank.
_ [Bm] _
[Ebm] It took a dog to a snow [Bm] cone and smuggled it in my other eye.
_ [Ebm] And the husky wee wee, I mean the doggy wee [B] wee, is [A] blinded me. _ _
[B] _ And I [Eb] can't see. _ _ _
_ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] Temporary.
It [E] was at this moment that the bird trapper [B] remembered an ancient Eskimo legend.
_ [Db] _ [Ebm] _ _ [B]
Wherein it [Eb] is written,
_ on whatever [Ab] it is that they write in the legend,
that if anything bad ever happens to your eyes,
the result is [G] uncertainty.
Think of anyone's name?
Nanook. _
[B] And you want to get it fixed up.
The only way you can do it is you got to go,
drudging across the [Bm] plunger.
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _
Drudging.
_ _ [B] Half a mile. _
[G] Drudging _ across the [Ab] plunger. _
[A] All the while,
making your [F] way down to the parish of St.
[Eb] Delfonso.
St.
Delfonso, [B] what's the difference [A] between the perspective [Ebm] of the person you're touching _ _
_ [B] _ and _ [Gbm] the very [Eb] influential religious figure, I might [Abm] add. _
[A] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ In the next episode, Big Ruth,
[Gbm] _ will be a hot [Em] lick.
It will take [Dbm] us directly, well, to be revealed.
