Am(palm muted.  Got that same beat as on the real adds)
Spoken:
Joining today's modern defense force is hard enough.  First you have to choose:
Navy, Airfoce, Army, Kiss Army, Salvation Army, Army of Darkness, but even when 
you've chosen, you have to make the grade.

(All chords palm muted for first verse)
Verse:
Am			  F
I'm way too skinny for the Army?
Am			G
Way too slender for the job?
Am		    F
What can I do if my country doesn't want me cause
   Am				G
My talents only stretch to mini golf?
Am			   F
I'm way too uncool for the Army
Am			     G
All that running through car tyres
Am			   F
I guess that would come in handy if you invaded 
  Am				    G
A country whose terrain was all car tyres.

Chorus:(clean)
	C
But I'm skinny and unclever
      Am
Maybe now more than ever
	F			  G
The technology has caught up with me
	     Am
If wars have gone all electronic
	C
I could fight them with my joystick
   F				G
As long as they bring pizza to me
			 C
Then I could be in the Army.

Verse 2:
Am		    F	   
It's not tricky to imagine
C		    G	   Am
Me in a bunker at a screen
			 F
Controlling reconaisance robots
		     C
Maybe mine detecting robots
			    G
Even robots who run through tyres

Chorus:
	C
But I'm skinny and unclever
      Am
Maybe now more than ever
	F			  G
The technology has caught up with me
	     Am
If wars have gone all electronic
	C
I could fight them with my joystick
      F				      G
While watching McLeod's Daughters on TV
			Bb
Then I could be in the Army.

Verse 3:
		    F
I was never good at Pacman
    C				 Bb
But at Defender I'd light up the skies
		    F
I was never good at Frogger
     C					Bb
It's much to much like hopping all the tyres
			  F
And if I don't get in the Army
  C			     Bb
I could become an evil mastermind
		      F
Live in an underwater tower
    C				   Bb
And wearing shiny skivvies all the time
		C
That would be fine

Chorus:
C
Skinny and unclever
      Am
Maybe now more than ever
	F			  G
The technology has caught up with me, (If I could make up my mind)
   	     Am
If wars have gone all electronic
	C
I could fight them with my joystick
   F			       G
As long as they bring pizza to me
			C
Then I could be in the Army____.
