Daniel Johnston – Scuttle Butt (Guitar)

      C      F     C       G        C
She's always ready for the worst of news

          C         F   C  G
And she's hopin' it may be you

    C             F       C    G             C
She knows all the scuttle butt about the whatnot

     C           F    C  G    G7
That she doesn't want forgot

C         F    C    G        C
Rumor's a wind that blows so smart

   C            F        C   G
It doesn't even know who you are

      C              F       C      G          C
She's standing there waiting at the top of the stairs

         C             F   C    G     G7
With her eyes fixed on you like glue

 C             F     C    G              C
"Where are you going now, where have you been?"

 C            F  C   G
"What is your latest sin?"

               F
She's into the big time

                         C       C7
She reads the National Enquirer

    F
She stretches the truth with such imagination

                              C     C7
She's more of a writer than a liar

      C      F     C       G        C
She's always ready for the worst of news

          C         F   C  G
And she's hopin' it may be you

    C             F       C    G             C
She knows all the scuttle butt about the whatnot

     C           F    C  G    G7
That she doesn't want forgot

C         F    C    G        C
Rumor's a wind that blows so smart

   C            F        C   G
It doesn't even know who you are
