Genre: folk, indie, singer-songwriter

Capo VI

This song follows seamlessly on from Anais' song Wilderland,

and they work amazingly played together.

The chords Anais plays in the verse part are:

Em (022000), C (332010), and the same as the C chord but two frets up (554020).

For the chorus bit the best I can make out for the chords are: A, (002220),

unknown chord one (x3434x), unknown chord two (x4545x), and Am (002210).
Intro: Em, C, (554020)
Em
My mother gave a mighty shout
C
Opened her legs and let me out

(554020)

Hungry as a prairie dog

Young man in America

Young man in America
Em C
Hungry, hungry, running every which way

(554020)

Young man in Americ-kay
Em
I come out like a cannonball
C
Come of age of alcohol

(554020)

Raven in a field of rye

With a black and roving eye

Black and roving eye
Em C
Ravenous, ravenous, what you've got is not enough

(554020)

Young man in America
A (x3434x)
Oh shelter

(x4545x)

Mother shelter
A
Mother shelter us
