Halloween Blues

	  		Super easy song, really fun to play too. Consists of 2 chords, E's and A's. 
Although you can play E7 and A7 and it sounds good too, play whatever you like more. 
Personally I like to play E's and A for the verses, then play 
E7 and A7 for the "let 'em all shiver, let 'em all shake" parts 

In case you don't know how to play E A E7 or A7 chords, here ya go: 
   E|-0-|     E|-0-| 
   B|-0-|     B|-2-| 
E: G|-1-|  A: G|-2-|  
   D|-2-|     D|-2-| 
   A|-2-|     A|-0-| 
   E|-0-|     E|-0-| 

    E|-0-|      E|-0-| 
    B|-0-|      B|-2-| 
E7: G|-1-|  A7: G|-0-|  
    D|-0-|      D|-2-| 
    A|-2-|      A|-0-| 
    E|-0-|      E|-0-| 

Also it's in standard tuning, so EADGBe 
Now let's get to the song!

I'm gonna make you wish that you'd never been born 
                         A 
Now you wish you'd never met me 
             E 
I can be the joker that you couldn't shake off 

                       E 
And I'm gonna make you need me 
                 E 
I'm gonna be the drink that you couldn't put down 
                    A 
I swear it won't be easy 
                        E 
'Cause when you got the Halloween blues, there's never a let down

                  E 
I'm gonna buy you everything you ever did want 
                           A 
And it's bound to ruin ya, honey 
                  E 
But you shouldn't steal what you never could hoard 

                     E 
And I'm gonna be the fastest 
                E 
I'm gonna be so quick that you're never quite sure 
                          A 
If you're tough enough to last this 
                        E 
'Cause when you got the Halloween blues, there's a guaranteed cure 


A7 
Let 'em all, let 'em all, let 'em all, let 'em all 
E7 
Let 'em all shiver and let them all shake 
A7 
Get 'em all, get 'em all, get 'em all, get 'em 
E7 
Get them hysterical, keep them awake 


                    E 
Well I'm gonna be imperious 
                 E 
I'm gonna be the next Harry Belafonte 
                     A 
You might as well be serious 
                  E 
If you've got the answers, you might as well say 
                           E 
There'll be no one who can thrill me 
                   E 
There's not a soul alive's got a half of my brains 
                              A 
But they'll try their best to kill me 
                        E 
'Cause when you got the Halloween blues, it's best to complain 

A7 
Let 'em all, let 'em all, let 'em all, let 'em all 
E7 
Let 'em all shiver and let them all shake 
A7 
Get 'em all, get 'em all, get 'em all, get 'em 
E7 
Get them hysterical, keep them awake
