Ain't Nobody Here for Us Chickens- Got an arrangement?

[Cornfield]

The title says it all. Does anyone have an arrangement for tenor guitar that they would like to share?
I'm getting used to playing front porch style blues on the tenor but need some help with swing.

[billhay4]

It's "Ain't Nobody Here but Us Chickens" I believe.

Yeah, that would work too. I wish I could blame it on spell correction, but my Commodore 64 doesn't have that.

Do you have any sound clips, or vids of your front porch Blues on Tenor Cornfield? I would love to hear it.

Blame it on the fact that you play tenor guitar.
It's a great song; wish someone could help you, but I found nothing but some guitar chords:
[C] One night farmer Brown was taking the air
Locked up the barnyard with the [C7] greatest of care
[F] Down in the hen house, something stirred
[C] When he shouted [NC] "Who's there?"
[G7] This is what he heard

[C] There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't no[C7] body here at all
[F] So calm yourself, and stop your fuss
[C] There ain't nobody here but us
[G] We chickens tryin' to sleep, [G7] and you bust in
[C] And hobble, hobble, [F] hobble, hobble, [C] with your [G7] chin

[C] There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't no[C7] body here at all
[F] You're stompin' around, and shakin' the ground
[C] You're kickin' up an awful dust
[G] We chicken's tryin' to sleep, [G7] and you bust in
[C] And hobble, hobble, [F] hobble, hobble, [C] it's a [G7] sin

[F] Tomorrow [C] is a busy day
[F] We got things to do, [C] we got eggs to lay
[D] We got ground to dig, [D7] and worms to scratch
[G7] (stop) It takes a lot of settin' [G7] (stop) gettin' chicks to hatch

[C] There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't no[C7] body here at all
[F] So quiet yourself, and stop your fuss
[C] There ain't nobody here but us
[G] Kindly point that gun,[G7] the other way
[C] And hobble, hobble, [F] hobble off [C] and hit the [G7] hay

[F] Tomorrow [C] is a busy day
[F] We got things to do, [C] we got eggs to lay
[D] We got ground to dig, [D7] and worms to scratch
[G7] (stop) It takes a lot of settin' [G7] (stop) gettin' chicks to hatch

[C] There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't no[C7] body here at all
[F] So quiet yourself, and stop your fuss
[C] There ain't nobody here but us
[G] Kindly point that gun,[G7] the other way
[C] And hobble, hobble, [F] hobble off [C] and hit the [G7] hay

[D7] It's easy pickins,
[G7] Ain't nobody here but us [C] chickens

Yes, I found that chord l chart, I was hoping to find an instrumental version, I doubt that I would master it quickly mind you. Right now I am playing the derision you posted with capo 3 so I can sing it.

[billhay4]

I did find a long, full orchestra version here which you might find a playable melody in.

Thank you!

[Cornfield]

I found that Eb was still out of range so I transported to F. I'm pretty new to fifths tuning so I was surprised how easy it was to transpose from C to F, move south by one string!
