The Old Black Hen

D D Old Black Hen, is that you again? Bm Singing the Bad Luck Lullaby D Come right on in, it's midnight again Bm Time for the Bad Luck Lullaby Em C You know the one, it's the same one you sung Em G D A When you worked on the Revelation Bm D A 2x D Now sing it over the cradle of the child who's born next Bm Bad Luck Lullaby D Leave all the truth in so they know what comes next Bm With the Bad Luck Lullaby Em C Leave in the true love they never find Em G D A Show how they're looking for it all of their lives Bm D A 2x D When I saw the banner hanging over my door Bm And heard the Bad Luck Lullaby D I already knew who the party was for Bm Bad Luck Lullaby Em C All of my pain found a partner in that room Em G D A And the devil's tail swayed with the tune Bm D A 2x Instr Verse D Bm D Bm Em C Em G D A D Make that Black Record roll the tapes all night long Bm Bad Luck Lullaby D Make that Black Record and we'll all sing along Bm To the Bad Luck Lullaby Em Look down the long street C And see who's that crying Em G Tell them that every day I lived D A Bm D A I was trying to sing the blues the way I find 'em Bm D A 2x Bm
