Oliver's Army

[Intro: ](A F#m E)

A
  Don't start that talking

D         E
  I could talk all night

A          
  My mind goes sleep walkin'

D             Db                  F#m
  While I'm puttin' the world to right

             B

Oliver's army is here to stay

A                D        E
Oliver's army are on their way

A              F#m               D
  And I would rather be anywhere else

      E      A  F#m D E
Than here today


A
  There was a checkpoint Charlie

D            E
  He didn't pack a smile

A
  But it's no laughing party

D                 Db             F#m
  When you've been on the murder mile

               B
Only takes one inch of trigger

F#m                  B
One more widow, one less white nigger


A                 D      E
Oliver's army is here to stay

A                D        E

Than here today


Ab             F#
  Hong Kong is up for grabs

E            Eb
  London is full of ab's

  E               F#
  We could be in Palestine

  E               F#
  Overrun by the chinese line

            E
  With the boys from the mersey

            F#
  And the thames and the tyne


B
  But there's no danger

E            F#           B
  It's a professional carrer

  Though it could be arranged

E                     Eb              Abm
  With just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear

                    Db              Abm

Than here today

               Abm               E
And I would rather be anywhere else
