Am 

Am                                               G 
Buzzing like a locust, vibrating right out of my skin 
Am              F                   C             Em7    Am 
Pounding on the butcher's wall, somebody come and let me in 
                                                G 
There's a black haired woman carrying a rolling pin 
         Am          F          C         Em7      Am         C         Em7      Am 
But your man's got a secret but she knows where he been yeah, she knows where he been 

               F    G              C   Am    F              G      Am 
And it'll be a long time 'fore the sun shines on Shank Hill Street again 

         Am                                                G 
You see, early in the morning, before the warm wind of the dawn 
        Am             F                 C    Em7       Am 
She saw thin man and a shadow make their way across the lawn 
            Am                                       G 
There was a rustle, was a razor and the whisper of a prayer 
         Am            F             C         Em7    Am 
Then the rhythm of the mallet like a heartbeat in the air 

               F    G              C   Am    F              G      Am 
And it'll be a long time 'fore the sun shines on Shank Hill Street again 

Am G Am 
C Am G Am 

       Am                                    G 
With a handshake like a hammer and a suicide grin 
     Am                  F            C           Em7    Am           C       Em7    Am 
That wooden door creaked open and the butcher-man let me in, yes like that he let me in 
      Am                                            G 
But I wasted not a minute, I was on him like a whip 
    Am       F                     C   Em7 Am 
For one last minute he'd feel that hot red drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip 

               F    G              C   Am    F              G      Am 
And it'll be a long time 'fore the sun shines on Shank Hill Street again
