Take a boat, take a plane

Go to London, go to Spain
       [ch]Dm7[/ch]              [ch]G7[/ch]         [ch]C[/ch]
Take a train from Amsterdam to Monaco
       [ch]C[/ch]                [ch]G[/ch]
Take a loved one if you think
       [ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch]       [ch]Am[/ch]
They enjoy things that stink
[ch]Dm7[/ch]                 [ch]G7[/ch]             [ch]C[/ch] (re intro)
Cause everything is different over there

Verse 2
               [ch]C[/ch]               [ch]G[/ch]
When you�re in Belgium you can eat
         [ch]F/C[/ch]                  [ch]C[/ch]
A lot of mayonnaise with your frites
       [ch]Dm7[/ch]                [ch]G7[/ch]                   [ch]C[/ch]     [ch]G[/ch]
And no one will say, hey, that�s too much mayonnaise
        [ch]C[/ch]              [ch]G[/ch]
Enjoy a German sausage hall
       [ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch]   [ch]Am[/ch]
Eat an Italian meatball
      [ch]Dm7[/ch]                   [ch]G7[/ch]
But I hope you don�t want a Twinkie
             [ch]Dm7[/ch]                [ch]G7[/ch]            [ch]C[/ch]     [ch]C7[/ch]
Because they don�t have Hostess Twinkies over there

Chorus
     [ch]F/C[/ch]                [ch]E[/ch]
Over there you�ll never feel at ease
              [ch]Am[/ch]                        [ch]C7[/ch]
Cause there�s not much soap and there�s too much cheese
    [ch]F/C[/ch]            [ch]G[/ch]                  [ch]C[/ch]     [ch]C7[/ch]
And everyone wears clogs and rides on trains
     [ch]F/C[/ch]                    [ch]E[/ch]
Over there they�ll make you regret that you
[ch]Am[/ch]                        [ch]C7[/ch]
Ever saved their asses in World War II
[ch]F/C[/ch]           [ch]Fm[/ch]/[ch]C[/ch]    [ch]C[/ch]
Don�t make me go over there

Cause I enjoy my freedom here
[ch]Ab[/ch]      [ch]Bb[/ch]                [ch]C[/ch]   [ch]Csus4[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
And I enjoy light-colored beer
[ch]Ab[/ch]             [ch]Bb[/ch]
I like to take showers
    [ch]C[/ch]         [ch]G/B[/ch]      [ch]Am7[/ch]   [ch]Am7/G[/ch] [ch]D7/F#[/ch] [ch]D7sus4[/ch]/[ch]F#[/ch] [ch]D7/F#[/ch]

Twice a day

Verse 3
              [ch]C[/ch]                  [ch]G[/ch]
They say that there�s a place in France
          [ch]F/C[/ch]          [ch]C[/ch]
Where the naked ladies dance
[ch]Dm7[/ch]             [ch]G7[/ch]          [ch]C[/ch]     [ch]G[/ch]
You can find it if you ask around
              [ch]C[/ch]                 [ch]G[/ch]
And there�s a hole there in the wall
          [ch]E7sus4[/ch]  [ch]E7[/ch]     [ch]Am[/ch]
Where the men can see it all
[ch]Dm7[/ch]               [ch]G7[/ch]
But the men don�t care
             [ch]Dm7[/ch]             [ch]G7[/ch]
Because they chew their underwear
        [ch]Dm7[/ch]            [ch]G7[/ch]           [ch]Dm7[/ch]           [ch]G7[/ch]
And the underwear they chew costs a dollar ninety-two
[ch]Dm7[/ch]            [ch]G7[/ch]                [ch]Dm7[/ch]                [ch]G7[/ch]
And the men go around with their ding dongs hanging down

Chorus
     [ch]F/C[/ch]                [ch]E[/ch]
Over there you�ll never feel at ease
              [ch]Am[/ch]                        [ch]C7[/ch]
Cause there�s not much soap and there�s too much cheese
    [ch]F/C[/ch]            [ch]G[/ch]                  [ch]C[/ch]     [ch]C7[/ch]
And everyone wears clogs and rides on trains
     [ch]F/C[/ch]                    [ch]E[/ch]
Over there they�ll make you regret that you
[ch]Am[/ch]                        [ch]C7[/ch]
Ever saved their asses in World War II
[ch]F/C[/ch]           [ch]Fm[/ch]/[ch]C[/ch]    [ch]C[/ch]    [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]
Don�t make me go over there
    [ch]F/C[/ch]           [ch]Fm[/ch]/[ch]C[/ch]    [ch]C[/ch]    [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]
No, don�t make me go over there
[ch]F/C[/ch]           [ch]Fm[/ch]/[ch]C[/ch]    [ch]C[/ch]
Don�t make me go over there
