Corb Lund Band - Grizzly Bear Blues Chords

[Verse 1]
E
Should I run or should I stand? It's an old debate
E
'Cause sometimes it's a bluff charge, and sometimes it ain't.
E
Can they run down hill? Can they climb a tree?
E
Maybe that's just black bears, I can't remember, hmm, let's see!
E
Should I shut up or should I shout And maybe try and scare him off?
E
Or will pretty much most anything I do just p**s him off?
E
In the end it doesn't matter What you choose to do of course
E
When 800 pounds of Grizzly Bear Outruns a Quarter Horse
 
[Chorus]
G
Well them old grizzly blues
F
Got me kinda confused
G
As to just what to do
           F
About them bears.
G
Yeah them old Grizzly blues
F
Got some conflicting views
D#                    C#
And not too much good news
           B      E
About them bears.
 
[Verse 2]
E
Well I think I read it someplace, 'They kill only what they eat'
E
So I fumbled through that guidebook Just how often do they eat meat?
E
Somebody find some matches, Let's do a study of some kind.
E
We'll make it scientific, And let's see what we can find.
E
Cause he looks almost friendly, With that Easy Amblin' Gait.
E
But when he decides he's hungry it makes me wanna hibernate!
