Scarecrow - Counting Crows
[Intro]
D Am
[Verse 1]
D Am
Mary steers clear of the men from space
D Am
Back alley kid with the American face
C
She wants the wine, he brings a case,
G
To carry them on through
[Verse 2]
D Am
I said you know what I know about the bedroom boys
D Am
Undercover Russians in a pink Rolls Royce,
C
They bang the drum, she sets the beat,
G
They carry Miss America out into the street,
F Am
She sings, scarecrow, snowman, John Doe, buffalo!
[Chorus 1]
D Am
Oh! I wish you wouldn't go,
Em Am
I got the arms to reach you
C G
I am the scarecrow (Do Do Do Do Do) (Do Do Do Do Do)
D Am
Oh! I guess you oughta kmow,
Em Am
I got the hands to teach you,
C
I am the scarecrow (Do Do Do Do Do)
G
Snowman sideshow (Do Do Do Do Do)
[Verse 3]
D Am
I fell out of love in the snow bound days
D Am
Riding the subway in a valium haze
C
I need the whites, she gets the blues
G
It carries us on through
[Verse 4]
D Am
All these American boys in the park n' shop
D Am
Selling their memories for a dollar a pop
C
Ivan the ancient spaceman race fan
G
Corners the market on American tastes
F Am
And says, spaceman, scarecrow, peepshow, freakshow!
[Chorus 2]
D Am
Oh! I wish you wouldn't go,
Em Am
I got the arms to reach you
C G
I am the scarecrow (Do Do Do Do Do) (Do Do Do Do Do)
D Am
Oh! I guess you oughta kmow,
Em Am
I got the hands to teach you,
C
I am the scarecrow (Do Do Do Do Do)

Punk rock video (Do Do Do Do Do)
[Bridge]
Am G
Dm Am
All the sudden light inside you dies
Bb
Maybe you're going on alone
F
Maybe you're going all alone
C
She dreams of sunlight
Sings of smaller things
G
White sugar bowls and wedding rings
Bb
You're going on from me alone
F
You're going on, you're on your own
[Verse 5]
D Am
She was married alive in a Moscow surgery,
D Am
Hoping to die in a cold war nursery
C
All of the kids back home believe
G
In much more than we do
[Verse 6]
D Am
It's a memory play where the memory fades
D Am
Into pictures we took into records we played
C
Spy versus spy, scarecrow and I
G
Out across the darkness where the bomber jets fly
F Am
Singing spaceman, smokeshow, scarecrow, geronimo!
[Chorus 3]
D Am
Oh! I wish you wouldn't go,
Em Am
I got the arms to reach you
