D Am Mary steers clear of the men from space D Am Back alley kid with the American face C She wants the wine, he brings a case, G To carry them on through D Am I said you know what I know about the bedroom boys D Am Undercover Russians in a pink Rolls Royce, C They bang the drum, she sets the beat, G They carry Miss America out into the street, F Am D She sings, scarecrow, snowman, John Doe, buffalo! Chorus: D Am Oh! I wish you wouldn't go, Em Am I got the arms to reach you C G I am the scarecrow (Do Do Do Do Do) (Do Do Do Do Do) D Am Oh! I guess you oughta kmow, Em Am I got the hands to teach you, C I am the scarecrow (Do Do Do Do Do) G Snowman sideshow (Do Do Do Do Do) I fell out of love in the snowbound days Riding the subway in a Valium haze I need the whites She gets the blues It carries us on through All these American boys at the Park ‘n’ Shop Selling their memories for a dollar a pop Ivan the ancient spaceman race fan Corners the market on American tastes And says “Spaceman! Scarecrow! Peepshow! Freakshow!” Chorus: I wish you wouldn’t go But I got the arms to reach you I am a scarecrow I guess you ought to know That I got the hands to teach you I am the scarecrow Punk rock video Dm Am All the sudden light inside you dies A# Maybe you're going on alone F Maybe you're going all alone C She dreams of sunlight Sings of smaller things G White sugar bowls and wedding rings A# You're going on from me alone F You're going on, you're on your own She was married alive in a Moscow surgery Hoping to die in a cold war nursery All of the kids back home believe in much more than we do It’s a memory play where the memory fades Into pictures you took Into records we played Spy vs Spy Scarecrow and I Out across the darkness where the bomberjets fly Singing “Spaceman! Smokeshow! Scarecrow! Geronimo!” Chorus: I wish you wouldn’t go I got the arms to reach you I am a scarecrow I guess you ought to know I got the hands to teach you I am the scarecrow Snowman Freakshow I wish you wouldn’t go But I got the arms to reach you I am the scarecrow I guess you ought to know That I got the hands to teach you I am the scarecrow Listen on the midnight radio | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsAm  A#  C  D  Dm  Em  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
