INTRO: D G (4x)
                            D
There were flowers from the boy pigs

         G                 D
Who were drinking in their barn digs

   Bm                A
In suits of powdered blue

           Em                 A
With those ruffled shirts on, too

                        D    G  D  G
All ordered through the mail

                     D
It was prom night in pig town

          G            D
There was ham bones in long gowns

     Bm              A
With painted cloven hooves

      Em              A
There was no need for shoes

                        D    G  D  G
Or the curlers in their tails

                           D
Couples had their pictures taken

              G                     D
Beneath those clothes, the heat was bakin'

     Bm              A
They pretended to be cool

              Em             A
'Cause they'd soon be out of school

                    D    G  D  G
And the night a memory

                                 D
They ate with noise, food by the plates-full

           G                         D
But on the dance floor, they were so graceful

       Bm              A
They'd glide without a care

      Em                   A
Their snouts tucked in the air

                  D    G  D  G
It was a sight to see
BRIDGE:
         F#                     Bm
After desserts, they bobbed for apples

            F#                  Bm
All knowing soon, they could be scrapple

        Em                  D
Another packaged, processed food

     Em          D
They bore no attitude

                      A
Or grudge against the world

    G                      D
The prom queen was dancing real slow

         G                  D
With her silk purse and her proud beau

Bm              A
Oinking low and soft

     Em              A
They quietly slipped off

                       D    G  D  G
With her new string of pearls

                      D
They all left in even numbers

       G                        D
Some to find love, some to find slumber

    Bm                 A
And some stayed up all night

   Em               A
To meet the morning light

                 D    G  D  G
Some went to the shore
BRIDGE:
          F#                    Bm
And after that, the class would scatter

         F#            Bm
From Delaware, to deli platters

Em               D
All would lose a friend

          Em             D
They were noble 'til the end

                A        F
Never asked for more 

                         D
One little piggy went to market

F                        D
One little piggy went to Rome

F                    D
One little piggy had roast beef

Gm                   D
One little piggy had none

Gm                   D
One little piggy had none

       G             D
It was prom night in pig town
