Am Am Am Am
G G G G
Am Am Am Am
G Gsus G [Chorus]
C/G The smoke witch says Wahoo!
G And the wise man says me too!
F C And the guru says wazoo!
F G C So do what you do! [Verse 1]
C The priests stand in their pulpits
Am The Pope sits on his throne
F The parishes are empty
G And the choirboys' on their own
Em Until the second coming
F Yes they're leaving us alone
C G/B Am And God in his Heaven
Em G Has decided to keep mum
F C Because He's just another traveler
G Am On the Road to Kingdom Come
G When all is said and done
Am G Am He's just another one [Verse 2]
C I pity Mr. President
Am He can't do a thing
F He says every where he went
G We tried to make him sing
Em Our lonely White House resident
F Says we should have made him King
C G/B Am Maybe then he could have saved us
Em G From the truth we're hiding from
F C But he's just another traveler
G Am On the Road to Kingdom Come
G When all is said and done
Am G Am He was just another one
[Verse 3]
C The General's in his game room
Am But his soldier won't salute
F Ever since he was promoted
G He can't pop his chute
Em His shrink says he is paranoid
F 'Bout communistic roots
C G/B Am So unfurl the flag boys
Em G Start beating his drum
F C We've got to get another straggler
G Am On the road to kingdom come
G When all is said and done
Am G Gsus G He was just another one, yes another one [Chorus]
C And the smoke witch says Wahoo!
G And the wise man says me too!
F C And the guru says wazoo!
F G C So do what you do! [Verse 4]
C Wow! The lead singer's raucous
Am As he screams out the truth
F And the band holds a caucus
G And decides to sell their youth
Em Our manager he'll hawk us
F As long as we're uncouth
C G/B Am And we'll call it revolution
Em G But we'll crank out bubble gum
F C 'Cause that's the marching tune for travelers
G Am On the road to kingdom come
G When all is said and done
Am G Am They're just some other ones [Verse 5]
C Grampa swung into the orgy
Am It was his last hope
F He was dressed to the nines
G In deodorant and Scope
Em And he found him a woman
F She'd brought Vaseline and soap
C G/B Am Well it started out exciting
Em G But it ended up ho-hum
F C She said I thought that you could take me
G Am All the way to kingdom come
G When all was said and done
Am G Am You were just another one Grampa [Verse 6]
C So Billy sells hot sermons
Am And cold wars through the mails
F While Mr. Big is selling out
G His business never fails
Em And King Kennedy like Chaucer
F Chasing Canterbury Tales
C G/B Am And though my brain is still a virgin
Em G The rest of me's well done
F C Don't you know we're all just travelers
G Am On the road to kingdom come
G When all is said and done
Am Yeah, just another one
G Gsus G Yes, another one... [Chorus]
C The smoke witch says Wahoo!
G And the wise man says me too!
F C And the guru says wazoo!
G Am So do what you do!
G Do what you do, do what you do
Am Do what you do
