Gee I Wish I Was Back In The Army Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]We'll follow the old man
wherever he wants to go
As [A]long as he wants to [D]go
[A]opposite [D]to the foe
[A]We'll stay with the[D] old man
wherever he wants to stay
As long he stays away from
the battle's fray
Because we [G]love him
we [D]love him
Especially when he keeps [Em]us on the [E]ball
[A]And we'll tel[D]l the kiddies
we answer [G]duties' call
With the [D]grandest son of
a soldier of [C]them all
Atten[D]tion![A]
[D]Attention![A]
[D]Gee, I wish I was back in
[B]the army[D]
The army wasn't really bad [A]at all
[D]Three meals a day
for which you [B]didn't [D]pay
[E]Uniforms for winter, [D]spring and fall
[A]There's a lot to be said for the[D] army
The life without responsibil[G]ity
A [D]soldier out of [A]luck was really
[D]never stuck
There's [Em]always [D]someone [A]higher
up where [D]you can pass the buck
[E]Oh, [Em]gee, [E]I wish I was bac[D]k in the[A] army[D]
[A][D][A][D][A][D]
[E][F#][D][B][A]
[D]Gee, I wish I was back in
[Bb]the army[D]
The army was the place to find romance
[A]Sol[Em]diers and[A] WAC[D]'s
the WAC's who dressed in [B]slacks
[E]Dancing cheek to cheek
and pants to [A]pants
[F]The[D]re's a lot to
be said for [E]the army
[D]The best of doctors watched you careful[G]ly
A [A]dentist [D]and a clerk
[Bm]for weeks and week[E]s they'd work
They [G]make a thousand [D]dollar
job and give it to a jerk
[F]Oh, [D]gee, I wish I [G]was back in
[D]the army[G][D][G]
[D]Three meals a day for [Bm]which
you did[D]n't pay
I [G]thought that I was through [D]with all
my care and strife
[G]But after [D]months and [Em]months
of the ci[D]vilian life
[Em]Gee, I wish I was back in the [A]army [D]now[D]!
