VERSE 1
        Dm          F              G                Bb
I was a p.f.c. on a search patrol, huntin' Charlie down
Dm                   C         Dm
It was in the jungle wars of '65
    Dm               F           G                Bb
My weapon jammed and I got stuck way out and all alone
            Dm          C                    Dm
And I could hear the enemy movin' in close outside
      F              C               Gm               Dm
Just then I heard a twig snap and I grabbed my empty gun
       F                       Am            Dm
And I dug in scared while I counted down my fate
            F              C            Gm               Dm
And then a big marine, a giant, with a pair of friendly eyes
   F                   Am               Dm
Appeared there at my shoulder and said wait.

         Dm                  F                         G        Bb
When he came in close beside me, he said don't worry, son, I'm here
Dm                            C                   Dm
If Charlie wants to tangle now, he'll have two to dodge
Dm                    F                     G                Bb
I said, well, thanks a lot! I told him my name and asked him his
Dm                   C         Dm
And he said the boys just call me camouflage


CHORUS:
Dm    F    G          Bb
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
Dm                C                   Dm
Things are never quite the way they seem
Dm    F    G          Bb
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
      Dm                C            Dm
I was awfully glad to see this big marine
