[Verse 1]
[Emaj7]Muskrat, muskrat, candlelight,
[Emaj7]Doing the town, and doing it right,
In the e[F#m11]vening, it's pretty p[Emaj7]leasing,
[Emaj7]Muskrat Susie, Muskrat Sam,
[Emaj7] Do the jitterbug out in muskrat land,
And they [F#m11]shimmy, and Sammy's so s[Emaj7]kinny!
[Chorus]
Aadd9 Emaj7 F#m11
And they whirled, and they twirled, and they tangoed,
Aadd9 Emaj7 F#m11
Singing and jingling their jango,
Aadd9 Emaj7 F#m11
Floating like the heavens a - bove,
[Dmaj7] [Dmaj7] [Emaj7]
^ ^
[Verse 2]
[Emaj7]Nibbling on bacon, chewing on cheese,
[Emaj7]Sammy says to Susie, 'Honey, hey,...
...[Emaj7]Would you please ...be my [F#m11]missus?'
And she says, yes, with her k[Emaj7]isses,
And now he's [Emaj7]tickling her fancy, rubbing her toes,
[Emaj7]Muzzle to muzzle, now anything goes,
(Rubbing her toes-----!)
As they [F#m11]wriggle, and Sue starts to [Emaj7]giggle!
[Chorus]
Aadd9 Emaj7 F#m11
And they whirled, and they twirled, and they tangoed,
Aadd9 Emaj7 F#m11
Singing and jingling their jango,
Aadd9 Emaj7 F#m11
Floating like the heavens a - bove,
