G                     C          G
  Dead badger in the back sheep field, I
G                            C          G
  Know it's coming when the rain don't feel right
Am                      Em
  Little sister, all I want is just to steer right
Am           C                 D        G
  Can we go collecting in the good night?


[Verse 1]
      G
As I live and breathe, you won't believe
                   C
Who I saw just the other week
Am              D                   G   D
  Stayed for a night and then kept moving
   G                                                        C
I fed her just as much as I could, fed her like a backseat man gone good
Am                         D               G
  She asked me if I could look after her accordion


[Chorus]
G                     C          G
  Dead badger in the back sheep field, I
G                            C          G
  Know it's coming when the rain don't feel right
Am                      Em
  Little sister, all I want is just to steer right
Am           C                 D        G
  Can we go collecting in the good night?


[Verse 2]
         G
She got picked up by a tour bus late one night
                                    C
She was sleeping by her dog in the neon light
Am                  D                        G       D
  In the middle of nowhere, she said "Let me off here"
      G
I'll bury that badger, but I won't bury him deep
                  C
Just in case he starts to breathe
Am                    D                      Em     D
  I'll wrap him in a dish towel to keep his body warm


[Chorus]
G                     C          G
  Dead badger in the back sheep field, I
G                            C          G
  Know it's coming when the rain don't feel right
Am                      Em
  Little sister, all I want is just to steer right
Am           C                 D       G
  Can we go collecting in the good night?

G                     C          G
  Dead badger in the back sheep field, I
G                            C          G
  Know it's coming when the rain don't feel right
Am                      Em
  Little sister, all I want is just to steer right
Am           C                 D       G
  Can we go collecting in the good night?

  And if it has to rain all day
         B                C
Maybe we all could slip away
                 Am
And go to where badgers breathe

And you find some company
