STINKER Year : 1974 Album : Caribou Writers : Elton John & Bernie Taupin Intro: /G... /F-/G... /F-/E-/D /G... G C/G - G G7 - C/G Say what you will - but I'm a stinker. G G7 C/G G G7 I come crawling up out of my hole. C7 F/C - C7 G/B C A7/C# Dirt in my toes, dirt up my nose - I'm a perfect curse to pest control. D7 - G C/G - G G7 C/G - G Seeds and weeds and muddy meals - G G7 C/G G G7 crawling around the earth. C7 F/C C7 G/B C A7/C# Down in the ground where the sun don't pound. Oh I hibernate in English turf. CHORUS: D7 Em /D /B - C Em Better believe it, I'm a stinker. Burning vermin stink. G7/B C G7 /B C Watch me get as high as a heat wave honey. A7 /B /C /C# D C Tell me what your hound dogs think. Set in my styles with a beady eye. I got connections with the underground. Call me a common rodent boy sitting here safe and sound. {Repeat Chorus} Some mole hill mother sauntered by acting like the ace of spades. Don't give that cutey no reason to shoot me - when I'm living on the eggs she laid. {Repeat Chorus} Chorded by David Bisese
