Steve Earle – Creepy Jackalope Eye (Guitar)

  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
