OK – this one was a tough one to figure out. You have to know this song to be
able to play the rhythm correctly and this is as close as I have been able to
get it.
Chord progression throughout most of the song is:
C Dm Am Dm over and over. Make sure capo is on 4 if you are tryin to play along with CD.
Capo 4
Dm C Dm Am
An elaborate tale
Dm C Dm Am
So convincingly real
Dm C
Things can seem so amazing
Dm C
'Til you get up close
Dm C
And see they're no big deal
Dm C Dm Am
Like the stars in the sky
Dm C Dm Am
Or the one on the stage
Dm C
Just a big ball of gas
Dm C
And a regular guy
Dm C Dm Am
Fresh out of minimum wage
Chorus:
F G#
In a jackalope space
C F
On a jackalope high
F G#
I'm staring you down
C
Creepy jackalope eye
Many things in this life
Are not what they appear
Yeah I look like a hare
But if you stop and you stare
I'm related to a deer
Chorus 2:
I got a jackalope face
I'm a jackalope guy
And I'm staring you down
Creepy jackalope eye
Is it so hard to imagine
Is it so hard to believe
Something so outrageous
Something so far fetched
Well how 'bout Adam and Eve?
I know you gotta have faith
I know the need to hope
But the truth is always in place
It's right in front of my face
The mighty jackalope
(Yeah)
In a jackalope space
On a jackalope high
I'm staring you down
Creepy jackalope
And I'm staring down
Creepy jackalope
And I'm staring you down
Creepy jackalope eye
Freaky jackalope eye
Creepy jackalope eye
Creepy jackalope eye
