Intro:
Em C/E 
   C/E 

 
Em 
Big legs dangle from a helicopter hole 
C/E              Am 
Big chug rhythm, gotta be now ho! 
 Em 
Brown, mean and young, dumb and full of cum 
Am 
What can you use a Marine for? 
 

 
G 
This is a fucking ass machine gun war 
          Am 
With your boots on the ground, boots on the ground 
E 
Boots on the ground, boots on the ground 
    Em 
We trim your hedges, we fight your wars 
C/E 
Wait in the trenches and we're fucked 'til we're sore 
     C/E                  Am 
With boots on the ground, boots on the ground 
 

 
Em 
Born shiny bullets in an army of ants 
 Am 
Blow that horn, we sleep in our pants 
    G 
Big titties, big titties 
        Am 
Well we holler and we burn down cities 
 

 
Em 
Boots on the ground, boots on the ground 
 C/E                     Am 
Shootin' up the town by stayin' in the hole 
           Em 
'Til Jimmy Hoffa is found 
        Em               Am 
With my boots on the ground

                                   Em 
Well, something goes tink when the cardrige is spent 
                               Am 
Where do you think all your cartilage went? 
                     G 
Boots on the ground, boots on the ground 
                           Am 
Now who the hell are these federal pricks? 
                             Em 
Hiding in the Senate like a bloated-ass tick 
                C/E 
Air-conditioned fuckstick loafers 
Am                        Em 
Sittin' in a room full of army posters 
                       C/E 
A coal to a diamond, a vote into law 
                          Em 
They campaign up all the blood they can draw 
                   Am 
Mold your world, a soldier's just clay 
                    G 
How much does every soldier weigh? 
                                F 
Cut you at the ankles and they throw that ass away 
F 
Boots on the ground

Outro: 
N.C.                        F 
Cold and hot as Satan's hoof 
                Fm         Dm 
Spinning on the world, I'm hiding on a roof 
                                   F 
I kill a brown man I never ass knew 
           Fm      Dm 
Choked on spit and then he turned blue 
                                           F 
He spattered black blood, he rolled Fin out 
              Fm              Dm 
He died right here, I got the pearl from his snout 
                                           F 
A puff of gray smoke, the tongue of a cloud 
                 Fm       Dm                                             F 
He rotted in the sand and all that they found was his boots on the ground 
Boots on the ground, boots on the ground 
                            F                    N.C. 
All that they found was his boots on the ground, boots on the ground
