Chorus:
G            F
I'm a skeleton
 C              G
I'm a skeleton man
                F
Hold my skeleton
D#        A#      F
Hold my skeleton hand

          G                          F
I met a child in the hills from the people of
        C
the corn
           G                     F          D# A# F
It's been 800 years since this child was born
G           F                  C
And in his ribs I found a pearl
G       F                  D# A# F
An offering from the corn world

Chorus

A# C     D#    F                 G
Hold my hand, we'll walk in the hot sun
A# C     D#   F       G
Hold my hand, in the hot sand

Chorus:
I'm a skeleton
I'm a skeleton man
Hold my skeleton
(Yeeeeaahh)

Down in the valley where there used to be the farms
Doctor Digger found a room full of arms

And now there's just a dog that barks
(Woof, woof, woof, woof!)
Chained to a one-man trailer park

Thought I heard him say

Chorus:
Hold my hand
We'll walk in the hot sun
Hold my hand
In the hot sand

(I'm a skeleton)
(I'm a skeleton man)
Hold my skeleton
Hold my skeleton hand

I'm a skeleton
I'm a skeleton man
Hold my skeleton
Hold my skeleton hand

I'm a skeleton
I'm a skeleton man
Hold my skeleton
Hold my skeleton hand
I'm a skeleton man
