So hAm7appy I was invited, give me a Freason to get out of the cCity
FSee you inside watching swCarms on TV

Gave mAm7y heart to the Army, the only Fsentimental thing I could thCink of
With Fcousins and colors and someCwhere overseas
But it'll D7sus2take a better war to kill a college man like me
Am7I'm too tired to Cdrive anywhere, anyFway right now do you Ccare if I stay?
FYou can put on your Cbathing suits
And I'll D7sus2try to find somethin' on this thing that means nothin' enough
