A great cover from Quo. I'm not quite sure about the Amb6 that the lead guitar plays in 
intro, but that's what it looks like Francis is playing on a live performance that I 
If it doesn't sound right to you, then just play and A5 in its place.
Enjoy playing this and Merry Christmas! =)

DmA (xx0231@1)vacation in a foreign land

Uncle Sam does the best he can

                      DmOh, (xx0231@1)oh, you're in the army now

DmNow (xx0231@1)you remember what the draftsman said

Nothing to do all day but stay in bed

                      DmOh, (xx0231@1)oh, you're in the army now

Dm (xx0231@1)                               (STOP)
Hand grenades flying over your head

[Key change - up a whole tone]

EmShots (022000@1)ring out in the dead of night
                  (STOP)

Bm (x24432@1)                  AmOh, (x02210@1)oh, you're in the army now
