Intro: Ab G Cm Fm
Ab
When I was nine years old
Eb Cm
Way back in Ohio
Fm
The hired man was digging up a well on my father's land
Fm Eb
He found a fossil there
Ab
It was a massive bone
Eb Cm
And since then I've known
Fm
That a race of giants lived in the northern hemisphere
Eb
Ten thousand years ago they lived right here
Ab
It seems incredible
Eb Cm
But yet it's the truth
Fm
That a fossilized and petrified
Eb
Calcified primeval brute
Ab
Was turned to stone
Eb Cm
But he was not alone
Fm
There were hundreds of them walking on the sands of the river
Eb Db
Even giants think they'll always live forever
Db
Ah ha
Fm

Ab

G Cm Fm
mm-hmm mm-hm mm-hm
Ab
Where a stream once flowed
Eb
Into the Ohio
Fm Eb
Everything was turned to sto-oa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohne
Ab
The bible speaks of this
Eb
There were giants in our midst
Fm
But they slaughtered one another in a meaningless war
Eb
Thank your lucky stars that we don't do that anymore
Db
That gravel-encrusted skull
Cm
That was found on the river shore

Double rows of very sharp teeth
The massive jaw measured twenty-five feet
Db Cm
Well it's turned to stone

There were hundreds of them walking on the sands of the river
