Alterkicks - The Cannibal Hiking Disaster
Am Dm
I took a trip with Jed my pal, went to France the mountain snow
G Am
There was sky the sun was low, I could feel the dark below
Am Dm
Pitched the tent we took the rope, attached it to a friendly slope
G Am
There's no water there I hope, there's no water there I hope
Am Dm
Jed he fell he called my name, I just stand I don't again
G Am
See his face in my dream now, see his face as I looked down
Am Dm
Oh where you are oh why'd' you call? My oh my I have to fall
G Am
Down the face to help with Jed, he was there no pulse he's dead
Am Dm
Oh what I do? I'm cold I'm wet I'm in the tent, I'm in the tent
G Am
How d'you stop from losing it, It was just an accident
Am Dm
Tried to hike and get some help ankles hurt like nothing else
G Am
Waiting for some help to come hoping that I'll see the sun
Am Dm
I start to think I'm surely doomed got no water got no food
G Am
This for me must be the end maybe I should eat my friend
Am Dm
I took a strip off of his thigh a muscley bit I start to fry
G Dm
In my Trangia from my pack suddenly I heard a gasp
Am Dm
Jed was up and on his feet I couldn't move I couldn't speak
G Am
He knows of what I tried to eat he was not dead he was asleep
Am Dm
How do you explain to your best pal that you've become a cannibal?
G Am
We made it out all safe and sound three weeks later we were found
Am Dm
I took a trip with Jed my pal went to France the mountain snow
G Am
There was sky the sun was low I could feel the dark below
