Porcupine Pie Acoustic

Porcupine Pie-Neil Diamond  (Acoustic)
Studio album: Moods, 1972
Live album: Hot August Night, 1972

This is a silly, er, simple song. One could just
play a D throughout, but I'm almost certain I hear a sort 
of cadence (a bit trillish) played in parts between D & Dsus4 
(just adding pinky finger to the 'e' string in the 3rd fret
and off again). Skip it or noodle it, either way...
mind your denim! ;-)

Verse 2:

D
Maybe I won't, maybe I won't, 
                Dsus4   D
maybe I'll have
           G      A
the tutti fruit, 
             D           Dsus4  D
with fruity blue cheese



Chorus 1:

G
Ah but Porcupine Pie, Porcupine Pie, Porcupine Pie
                          D    Dsus4   D
don't let it get on your jeans
     A
And though it sounds a little strange but
 A                                                     
you gotta eat it with gloves,
                          D   Dsus4  D Dsus4
or your hands will turn green..

Ah but porcupine pie, porcupine pie, porcupine pie
                           D      Dsus4  D  Dsus4  
weaves its way through my dreams 

  A
I do believe I'm gonna try some and 
 A 
leave enough room for dessert, 
                        D       
the chicken ripple ice cream.
