Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers - Chainsaw earl

He was ^Amskinny as a rake, like a ^Ctwo by four, ^GUgly as sin, born ^Empremature; ^AmMother had ^Emtrouble ^Ctrying to ^Gtake To a ^Amkid that ^Glooked like a ^Amgarden rake. Ah ^Csons are sons, and ^GDad wasn't proud, Didn't ^Ammake him feel like ^Gone of the ^Emcrowd; The ^Amwood-cuttin' ^Emboys from ^Cup in the ^Gsticks ^AmLaughed at the ^Gsight of ^AmEarle. (Wimp!)

He was ^Amtreated like scum and he ^Cfelt like dirt, ^GCouldn't lift a chainsaw,^Emmake it work; ^AmFather often ^Emsaid that he ^Cdidn't have a ^Gclue, And ^AmMother didn't ^Gfeed him, and he ^Amhardly grew.(Hungry!..I'm hungry!)

So ^CEarle disappeared for ^Gfifteen years, ^AmFather didn't miss him and his ^GMother didn't ^Emcare; ^AmAfter a ^Emwhile they for^Cgot about ^GEarle, ^AmAnd his girlfriend ^Gsaid, "^Am;Who cares?"

^AmStunned, stunned, stunned, stunned ^EmEarle, ^AmStunned, stunned, stunned, stunned ^EmEarle, ^AmStunned, stunned, stunned, stunned ^EmEarle.

^AmIn this little town, life ^Cwent on the same, Till one ^Ghot July,and ^Emno rain came; ^AmGreat big ^Emfires set the ^Ccountry ^Gablaze, And ^Ameveryone ^Gcuttin' ^Amfire breaks.

Ah, ^Cthey sawed and they sawed but they ^Gcouldn't outrun, The ^Amsmoky fumes and the ^Gfiery ^Emtongues; They were ^Amlosin' ^Emfast, it was ^Clookin' ^Gbad, ^AmWho would ^Gsave their ^Amtown? (Save me! Save Me!)

^AmAnd nobody knew, neither ^Cfoe nor friend, ^GThat Earle had grown to ^Emseven foot ten; ^CArms like culverts, ^Glegs like trees, ^AmFists like ^Ghammers and ^Amhairy knees. (Shave me! Shave me!)

^CFar off in the woods above the ^Gdin and the roar, Came a ^Amsound nobody had ^Gheard ^Embefore; ^AmTrees were ^Emfallin' like a ^Ctidal ^Gwave, To a ^Ammonster ^EmJohnson, red ^Amchainsaw. NEEERRROOWWWWW

^AmChain, chain, chainsaw ^EmEarle, ^AmChain, chain, chainsaw ^EmEarle, ^AmChain, chain, chainsaw ^EmEarle.

^AmHis cutter bar was ^Cten foot two, ^GTurned the air all ^Empurple and blue; ^AmTasmanian ^Emdevil in ^Ctwenty minutes ^Gflat Made the l^Amandscape ^Emlook just ^Amlike Iraq.

^CWith the trees all limbed and the ^Gfire break made, The ^Amtownsfolk saved from a ^Gcharcoal ^Emgrave; ^AmPeople ^Emgathered, ^Cshouted and ^Gcheered.... (Hooray!) For this ^Amforest ^Emdisposal ^Amunit.

^AmLightin' up a smoke, he let the ^Cchainsaw down, ^GSaid, "I'm the guy^Em who saved your town!" Then ^AmEarle ^Emknocked over a ^Cdrum of ^Ggas, ^AmJust as he ^Emthrew away his ^Ammatch. ^CAll the gas exploded and the ^Gtown burned flat, And ^AmEarle ran off just like a ^Gscalded ^Emcat; It's been ^Amfifteen ^Emyears his ^CFather ^Gsaid,...

^AmStunned, stunned, stunned as me ^Emarse, ^AmStunned, stunned, stunned as me ^Emarse, ^AmStunned, stunned, stunned as me ^Emarse .... ^Emwas ^AEarle.
