    Yonder Mountain String Band

E                    A
Well, I went on the mountain
       E                      B7
And gave my horn a blow
      E                A
Thought I heard some pretty gal say
      B7                   E
"Yonder come my beau"

E         A                  E              A
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
E          A               B7
Crow black chicken and fly away
E         A              E               A
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
          B7        E
Honey I like chicken pie

             E                   A
Well, the hardest work that ever I done
    E                   B7
Is plowin' a field of rye
       E                A
The easiest work that ever I done
        B7             E
Was eatin' chicken pie

E                  A
Chicken crow for midnight
       E                         B7
And chicken crow for a day
E                A
Along come an owl, Lord, have mercy
      B7                   E    
And stole my chicken away

E
Me and my baby sugar mama built an a-frame
A
House ten stories high
           E                       A
And in every single story and in every single room
      B7                 E
We was eating chicken pie

E         A                  E              A
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
E          A               B7
Crow black chicken and fly away
E         A              E               A
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
          B7        E
Honey I like chicken pie
