I was never a huge fan of this band until I heard this song. It's really
weird and beautiful, as is the rest of the album. I've been messing around
and playing this tune for years, and was surprised to find that no one had
submitted this. It's accurate, but I'll offer this suggestion: if you
really want to get the sound of the organ for the verses, only play the
fifth and octave for the B major and A major chords, and play the root and
fifth for the Emajor. The best way to do this is to play the B barre chord
up at the seventh fret, then move down two frets for A, and then move back
up to the seventh fret for E. When playing like this, *only play the two
notes on the A and D strings for each chord.*
VERSE
GWho put the doggy in the doghouse?
FYou did, baby - Cyou did
GWho put your granny in the grannyhouse?
FYou did, baby - Cyou did, baby
GWho put the mad in the madhouse?
FYou did, baby - Cyou did
GWho put that junk in the junkhouse?
FYou did, baby - Fyou did, baby
CHORUS: (for the chorus, rather than just playing the two notes for each chord,
play each full chord).
C#minKeep your eye on things while I'mC gone
GKeep a lid on things
C#minDon't you try everything while I'Fm gone
GKeep a lid on things
That's it. Repeat until the end.
