[Verse 1]
 Am7          C       Dsus4
Just for the record, let's get the story straight
       Am7             C       Dsus4                  G
Me and Uncle Tom were fishin', it was gettin' pretty late
Am7       C       Dsus4
Out on a cypress limb above the wishin' well
            Am7    C      Dsus4                   G
Where they say it got no bottom, say it take you down to hell
Em   G             A                    G5    A5
Over in the bushes and off to the right
       Em     G        A                      D
Come two   men talkin' in the pale moonlight
  Em        G      A                G5    A5
Sheriff John Brady and Deputy Hedge
          Em    G        A                        D
Haulin' two limp bodies down to the water's edge
 
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9      G                    D                Em    G    Am
 I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin, oh, yeah
Cadd9      G             D          A
 I know a secret that I just can't tell
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em      G         A                       G5    A5
 They didn't see me and Tom in the tree
 Em          G          A                       D
Neither one believin' what the other could see
 Em         G          A                    G5    A5
Tossed in the bodies, let 'em sink on down
        Em         G        A                           D
To the bottom of the well where they'd never be found
 
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9      G                    D                Em    G    A
 I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin, oh, yeah
Cadd9      G             D          A
 I know a secret that I just can't tell
Cadd9      G                    D
 I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin
Cadd9      G             Em         D
 I know a secret that I just can't tell
Cadd9      G                    D
 I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin
  A                             Em
Know who put the bodies in the wishin' well

[Verse 3]
 Am7          C          Dsus4
Soon as they were gone, me and Tom got down
  Am7         C     Dsus4           G
Prayin' real hard that we wouldn't make a sound
 Am7              C        Dsus4
Runnin' through the woods back to Uncle Tom's shack
           Am7        C       Dsus4         G
Where the full moon shines through the rooftop cracks
Em     G          A                     G5    A5
Oh my God, Tom, who are we gonna tell?
      Em           G    A                 D
The Sheriff, he belongs in a prison cell
 Em            G        A                         G5    A5
Keep your mouth shut, that's what we're gonna do
            D                            A
Unless you wanna wind up in the wishing well too
 
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9      G                    D
 I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin
Cadd9      G             Em         D
 I know a secret that I just can't tell
Cadd9      G                    D                 G      Cadd9    D
 I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin, ooh, yeah, yeah
Cadd9      G             Em         D    G    Cadd9    D
 I know a secret that I just can't tell
   Cadd9      G                    D
Oh, I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin
  A
Know who put the bodies, know who put the bodies
                Em
In the wishin' well, oh, yeah
