    E             F#m           C#m      G#m
The chicken wakes up like she does every morning
E         F#m          C#m         G#m
To the sounds of her husband's screams
E          F#m            C#m        G#m
Sat in the dark on the eggs she is warming
E     F#m       C#m        G#m
She closes her eyes and dreams of
A                     B
Walking to Memphis, becoming a dentist
C#m B    G#  A
Anything but this
        A                       B
I mean, she likes her life as a mother and wife
    C#m  B      G#  A
But is that all she is?
    A              Am
She stares out the window

    E         F#m            C#m     G#m
The very next morning, the chicken decides to
E          F#m          C#m     G#m
Makе her escape, gеt a taste of freedom
    E            F#m             C#m          G#m
She runs out the coop that her life’s been confined to
E        F#m                  C#m  G#m
Suddenly sees the thing she's only dreamed of
A                      B
Just up ahead, gophers run through a meadow
C#m B       G# A
Deer graze, birds sing
    A                        B
Her future is waiting, right there for the taking
C#m B        G#  A
There's just one thing
    A            Am              E
The chicken must first cross the road
   G#7
The road

C#m        B                 A
A sea of trees and green and moss
                       E         G#7
Waiting just across the road, the road
C#m B                A     Aadd9          Am
A life of brighter days, a width of road away
    E         F#m           C#m      G#m
The road is gigantic, the chicken is little
E          F#m               C#m       G#m
She moves ahead left-right-left, right-left-right
E        F#m           C#m        G#m
All of a sudden, she stops in the middle
E         F#m           C#m  G#m
Frozen in place by a pair of headlights
     A                   B
It’s anyone's guess what then happened next
   C#m B       G#  A
But most think she died
    A                     B
But I think we ought to believe that she got to
C#m B G#  A
The other side
   A              Am
So that's why she did it
