Us Blues

	  		
verse 1 

A 
Red and white, blue suede shoes 
      A7 
I'm Uncle Sam, how do you do? 
D 
Gimme five, I'm still alive 
      E        B E    E B E 
Ain't no luck, I learned to duck 

A 
Check my pulse, it don't change 
  A7 
Stay seventy-two come shine or rain 
D 
Wave the flag, pop the bag 
  E  B E    E B E 
Rock the boat, skin the goat 

 E         B 
Wave that flag, wave it wide and high 

 E         B 
Summertime done, come and gone, my oh my 



verse 2 

 A 
I'm Uncle Sam, that's who I am 

  A7 
Been hidin' out in a rock and roll band 

 D 
Shake the hand that shook the hand 

     EB  E    E B E 
Of P.T. Barnum and Charlie Chan 

 A 
Shine your shoes, light your fuse 

    A7 
Can you use them ol' U.S. Blues? 

 D 
I'll drink your health, share your wealth 

  EB  E    E B E 
Run your life, steal your wife

Wave that flag, wave it wide and high

Summertime done, come and gone, my oh my 
 *Solo*   (Verse)

Back to back, chicken shack 
      A7 
Son of a gun, better change your act 
D 
We're all confused, what's to lose? 

      E        B E    E B E 
You can call this song the United States Blues 


 E         B 
Wave that flag, wave it wide and high

Summertime done, come and gone, my oh my 
   my my, my my, my oh my, oh my

Wave that flag, wave it wide and high

Summertime done, come and gone, my oh my
