Scent Of A Mule Chords & Lyrics Artist: Phish

VERSE 1
G
Kitty Malone sat on a mule
 
Was riding in style
          C
When suddenly, like the sound of a
 
buzzard's breaking
            A7                   D7
Kitty felt laser beams being fired at
 
her head
G
She said, "I hate laser beams
 
And you never done see me Askin’
C                A7              D7
For a UFO, for a UFO, for a UFO
N.C.
In Tomahawk County"
 
 
PRE CHORUS
D
Well she kicked the mule
D/C
And it walked the path
D/B                           D/A
And the aliens fired from behind
D
Till she stopped the mule
D/C
And she kicked the rump
D/B                          D/A
And the big old mule took a big old dump
 
 
CHORUS
F          C                G
Scent of a mule, you better watch out
 
where you go
F        C               D
Take your laser beams away
F          C                G
Scent of a mule, you better watch out
 
where you go
F         C               A7     D7
You better stop that laser game
                       G
Or you'll smell my mule
 
 
VERSE
G
She felt the fire against her neck
 
And it saddened her to feel it burn
C
When suddenly, like the sound of a
 
breeding Holstein
             A7
Kitty said, "Stop, we ain't looking for
D7
fightin'
N.C.
In Tomahawk County."
 
D                     D/C
A little guy from the UFO
D/B                      D/A
Came on out and said his name was Joe
          D                      D/C
She said, "Come on over for some lemonade
    D/B                          D/A
Just follow me now with the whole brigade"
 
 
CHORUS

Scent of a mule, you better watch out

F        C               D
Take your laser beams away
F          C                G
Scent of a mule, you better watch out
 
where you go
F         C               A7     D7
You better stop that laser game
                       G
Or you'll smell my mule
 
 
VERSE
G
They walked into her cabin shack
 
They had never seen a southern home
C
And they liked it, better than their UFO
A7                         D7
They liked it, they really liked it
