Uncle Sam

E
Here they come again
    A                  E
Hop scotching up to my door
E
One by one again
               A                E
Knockety knock knocking upon my floor


[Verse 2]
E
Swinging on my gate
          A                 E
They gain entry by the yard
E
Pulling at my hair they scream
           A                  E
Paint your thoughts upon my card


[Pre-Chorus]
B                        E                  B   E
But not tonight I've got studies to examine
B                E                        B     E
Tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men
B                   E                    B
A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam
B
Who now takes up all my time he gives me things to do
B
'cause he's a wonderful man


[Chorus]
E
But I'm sailing across the sea
   A                E
To see my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
   A                E
To be with my Uncle Sam
   A                E
To be with my Uncle Sam


[Verse 4]
E
Silly little sniggers from the women liberators
         A                     E
But I'll stand and hold my post
E
Polished buttons and erect I'll raise the flag
                A                   E
I'll show those women who's the most


[Pre-Chorus]
B                        E                  B
But not tonight I've got studies to examine
B                E                        B
Tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men
B                   E                    B
A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam
B
Who now takes up all my time he gives me things to do
B
'cause he's a wonderful man


[Chorus to fade]
        E
But I'm sailing across the sea
   A                E
To see my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
   A                C   F    C  F    C
To be with my Uncle Sam
E
Sailing across the sea
   A                E
To see my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
   A                E
To be with my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
   A                E
To be with my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
   A                E
To be with my Uncle Sam
