            (3/4)

[Intro]
| D | D | D | G | G |

[Verse 1]
     G
I'll tell you a story of a love and his flame
D                                   G
You've read about him, he's Ichabot Crane

[Verse 2]
G
He went a-courtin' one night on his horse
D                                   G
And Sleepy Hollow, they both had to cross

[Verse 3]
G
While ridin' and thinkin', bout the girl he would wed
       D                                G
It was there that old Ichabot, lost his head

[Chorus]
G
Across, Sleepy Hollow, a horseman did follow
    C          D                    G
And follow and follow, poor Ichabot Crane

[Verse 4]
G
Don't want to end up, like Ichabot Crane
    D                                G
Who lost his head and went up in the flame

[Verse 5]
G
Sleepy Hollow, I'm gonna evade
     D                                  G
That was the mistake, that poor Ichabot made

[Verse 6]
G
I'm a losin' my head and startin' to burn
      D                                 G
Ain't any too smart, but I'm willin' to learn

[Verse 7]
G
You can't talk me in, to a staying out late
     D                              G
That was poor Ichabot's, biggest mistake

[Chorus]
G
Across, Sleepy Hollow, a horseman did follow
    C          D                    G
And follow and follow, poor Ichabot Crane

[Break]

[Verse 8]
       G
In the legend of Sleepy Hollow tis said
    D                             G
The horseman had a pumpkin, for a head

[Verse 9]
G
My head may be sore and I may not be bright
     D                                         G
Just one more little kiss and that's all for tonight

[Verse 10]
G
I'm afraid that your kisses will drive me insane
    D                         G
And I'll end up, like Ichabot Crane

[Verse 11]
G
I'm a headin' right home and a jumpin' in bed
           D                                 G
That's the best way I know, to hang on to my head

[Outro]
G
Across, Sleepy Hollow, your mem'ry will follow
    C          D                    G
And follow and follow, this Ichabot Crane..
