A    E         F#m7            B7
Introducing my friend from the fields
    Dj7             E7         A           D-5
You don't have much money, you know how it feels
F#m7        Dj7   C#m6 C#m7    F#m  F#m7 B7 Fm7
Down at the heels, chasing the blackbirds away

  F  G       C       F G
  Uh huh, uh huh, forever
     C       F G   A
  Uh huh, forever now

Hi'falutin' I've got my turnips and peels
Don't have no shovel, you know how it feels
Down at the heels, chasing the blackbirds away

    G        Gsus G       F6/9
    Old scarecrow getting nearer and near
            G7                   C
    Well he could be a schizo or maybe a queer
             D#j7
    We won't know 'till we get it

  Together, uh huh, forever
  Uh huh, forever now

Hi'falutin'...

  Uh huh...
