    C
The Boogie Man
The Boogie Man
Every mother used to say
    A
Was hiding in the closet at night, and even day
She'd say
Dm
You had to behave lest he'd come and take you away
   G
So be polite and don't muck up
                           C
Listen to what your elders say
Then where was he?
                     A
Every day I was naughty
I'd cry and run away
                                Dm
Defied them each night in every way
And when alone, I'd search in the closet
                      G
And under the bed and yet
I could never find him
                              E7
And despaired at each night's end
                      A
Where are you hiding, oh, Mr. Boogie Man?
  Fm                                G
I heard you're terrifying, ugly and shunned by them
E7                               A
Please come out and find me, oh, mr. Boogie Man
                     G
You sound just like me-

                       C
Please won't you be my friend?

    C
The years went by but I didn't give up, I was deter-mined
  A
I still felt lonely, unchanged, broken
Dm
I still would search, but this was getting tir-ing
G
I can't do this much longer. Are you even listening?
    C
But then I fo-und him!
He was caught in that
A
Bear trap I'd lay out that day
                                                                            
                                         Dm
He hit back, cursed, and struggled in every way
He was nothing like I was thought to believe
G
Scared and hurt, whimpering, he was nothing like me
E7                       A
Why are you running, oh, Mr. Boogie Man?
  Fm                      G           
I know I'm terrifying, ugly and shunned by them
E7                   A
You're a coward, oh, Mr. Bogie Man
                     G
You're nothing like me-
                   C
You'll never be my friend
        C
Oh, the Boogie Man
The Boogie Man
Every mother used to say
         A
Was hiding in the closet at night and even day
She'd say
Dm
You had to behave lest he'd come and take you away
    G
But little did they kno-ow
                                          C
His corpse is underneath my bed till this day
