A vacation in the foreign land
 
Uncle Sam does the best he can

Oh, oh you're in the army - now

Now you remember what the draft man said
 
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
              Gm
You're in the army now

You'll be a hero of the neighbourhood
 
Nobody knows that you left for good

You're in the army now
Am                   Dm
Oh, oh you're in the army - now

Hand grenades flying over your head
 
 
Em
The sun's flying over your head
 
If you wanna survive you're out of bet
              Am
You're in the army now
Hm                   Em
Oh, oh you're in the army - now

Shots ring out in the dead of night
 
The sergeant calls : "Stand up and fight!"
              Am
You're in the army now
Hm                   Em
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
 
 
 
Em
You've got your orders to shoot on sight
 
your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right
              Am
You're in the army now
Hm                  Em
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
 
 
 
Guitar solo
 
 
 
Em
Night is falling and you just can't see
 
Is this illusion or reality
              Am
You're in the army now
Hm                   Em
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
 
 
              Am
You're in the army now           \
Hm                   Em           } - playing N times with fill 2
