Horn Of The Unicorn

Words and Music by Raccoon

As recorded on White Horse Ranch Sessions

 

The chord progression to this song is:

·        G, A, C, D

 

G              A

On a boat out in the sea

C                                          D

I saw a laughing unicorn with gossamer wings

G                              A

On the shore about a mile or two away

C                                                   D

The white knight rode his maverick stallion away

 

G                                  A

Bearing no gifts for the lady in red

C                                              D

The white knight took his silver sword to his head

G                                            A

I don’t like the games that the kings in the castles play

C                                    D

And when I work a day I want my day’s pay

 

G                                           A

And out on the highway I ain’t got too many cares

C                                                 D

When I feel like movin' I stick my thumb in the air

 

G                               A

With the horn of the unicorn

C                                      D

You hold your fate in your hands

G                           A

So the horn of the unicorn

C                                                  D

It was meant for God and not for man

 

G                  A    C                                  D

Oh rain, rain, rain, for the pleasure or the pain

G                  A   C

Oh rain, rain, rain - Am I ever gonna feel this way again?

D

Am I ever gonna feel this way again?

 

G                               A

I’m just a melancholy man

C                                   D

Livin' with a guitar in my hand

G                                           A

It really doesn’t matter how I feel

C

I’ll probably never taste another home-cooked meal

D                                                                  G

I’ll probably never taste another home-cooked meal

 

G                     A

Oh, ain’t that a shame?

C                                                         D

I never really learned how to play that game

G                     A

Oh, ain’t that a shame?

C                                                      D

I bet that you wish you could say the same

                                                               G

I bet that you wish that you could say the same

 

G                   A    C                                  D

Oh rain, rain, rain - And the tempest winds wail

G              A    C                                           D

Rain, rain, rain - You make it hard to find the trail

D                                                 G

You make it kinda hard to find the trail

 

G              A

On a boat out in the sea

C                                           D

Stood a laughing unicorn with gossamer wings

G                                    A

And on the shore about a mile or two away

C                                       D

A sad man hung his head as he began to pray

 

G                             A

With the horn of the unicorn

C                                      D

You hold your fate in your hands

G                           A

So the horn of the unicorn

C                                                  D

It was meant for God and not for man

D                                                 G

It was meant for God and not for man
