           G                C  G           All the prophets of doom 

                      C    G           can always find room 

                           C  G         D    Dsus4 D           In a world full of worry and fear 

           D     G  D               G   D           Tip cigarettes and chemistry sets 

               D                         G           And rudolph the red-nosed reindeer

                    C  G                 C   G           So I'm goin back to my little old shack 

                       C  G         D    Dsus4  D           And drink me a bottle of wine

                                      G           And have me a fuckin' good time 

           C                  G           Rain on a tin roof sounds like a drum 

                 C                    D           We're marching for freedom today yeay 

           C                           G           Turn on your headlights and sound your horn 

              D                 G           If people get in the way
