Chords for Aint Nobody Here But Us Chickens - Louis Jordan & his Tympany Five (Live video 1974)

[Em] Here's a tune that I recorded [F] about 35 years [G] ago.
I kind of like chickens.
I recorded a lot of tunes about chickens,
[Ab] and I'm sure that you know I love chicken.
That leg, I just lay on that.
The name of this tune is

_ _ [F] _ [C] night Palmer Brown was taking a nap
He locked up the barnyard with the greatest [F] of care
[A] Down in the henhouse something [G] stirred
When he shouted, Who's there?
This is what [C] he heard,
Ain't nobody here but us chickens
Nobody [G] here at all
[A] So calm yourself, stop that [Gm] fuss
[C] Ain't nobody here but [G] us
We chickens trying to sleep
And you [Dbm] bust in

With [C] your chin
Ain't nobody here but us chickens
Nobody here at all
