INTRO: 3 progressions of D Bm G D

<D Bm G D x4>
She was once an attraction at the county fair
and now she sleeps in a box at the top of the stairs
and she loves it here make no mistake
cause she can earn her keep by chasin snakes

<D Bm G D x2>
And if I wake up late at night i know that everything will 
be alright, cause crawling round on my room is the woman 
who was also a mongoose
          
<D Bm G D x2> A

(D Bm G D)x4
She was born in May ninety years ago
In a little town outside Buffalo
but the town folk feared her and they chased her away
and now she's happy with a place to stay

<D Bm G D x2>
And if I wake up late at night i know that everything will 
be alright, cause crawling round on my room is the woman 
who was also a mongoose

(D Bm G D)x4
She trapped a rattler out behind the barn
and she let it go without any harm
then she came inside for a cup of tea
and she spoke for a while with my brother and me

<D Bm G D x2>
chasing after feild mice running through the high grass 
thats what she loves to do
and if she's happy as a mongoose, shouldn't bother me or you

<D Bm G D x2>
And if I wake up late at night i know that everything will 
be alright, cause crawling round on my room is the woman 
who was also a mongoose

(D Bm G D) x2   A   D
