Tonart: Eb major
Verse 1
Gm
There is a line in that song
D
G
that says the porcupine talks to himself
Gm
an d that actually came out of a
that I took about five or six years
ago
Am
now up into the southwestern
Am
part of Montana.
I was camping with my wife
on a place called the To
C#m
F#m
bacco Root Mountains
Am
G
in southwestern Montana.
We were up about 9 ,500 feet
for about a week and a half
and we hadn't seen another
Am
D
living soul up there.
G
Now you have to realize
Gm
F
that when it gets dark in Montana up
G
there are no kinds of cities around
to give you any kind of reflective lighting at all,
and the moon didn't happen to be out
at that time of month.
Gm
So when it got dark, it got dark.
D
G
So one morning my wife says to me,
Gm
G
did you hear a very strange noise
in the camp last night?
F#m
F
And I said, no.
F#m
there was a presence in this camp
G
F
making some strange noises last night.
G
F#m
G
And I thought, fine.
Em
G
Let's go home,
Gm
because I am no Daniel
G
Am
Boone in the woods.
G
it's just as black as can be.
D
I can't even see your hand
A
I am lying awake, staring at
Am
G
the roof of the tent,
Eb
G
Em
D
G
listening to the wind in the passes.
Am
Gm
I hear this.
G
D
G
And
I'm staring at the roof of the tent,
F#m
and thinking, it's just the wind,
D
G
but it's getting closer and
closer and closer
D
Gm
D
Am
and this thing brushed right by my head
A
right along the wall of the tent
G
D
Gm
Bb
Gm
an d
F
Gm
G
I thought
D
Gm
G
Gm
to myself oh man they've landed
I figured we were all going to wake up
on Pluto.
C#m
D
See the blue light start to flash
Gm
and that was going to be
G
the end of the whole thing.
Gm
G
So I gathered all my courage together,
took my flashlight,
C#m
F#m
zipped down the opening of the tent
about half an inch.
C#m
Making as little sound as possible,
I turned on the flashlight,
shined my light out,
got this big old porcupine
G
messing around in the fire,
G
got him right between the eyes
with my flashlight being, he's just,
scared the daylights out of him
and then he's kind of a crotchety old fella,
got caught right there in my campfire.
D
Anyhow, that's where that line comes from.
