Intro

Verse 1
    [ch]C[/ch]      [ch]G[/ch]
Take a boat, take a plane
   [ch]F/C[/ch]      [ch]C[/ch]
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]
Chord diagramA augmentedA 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

Bridge (See bridge walkdown figure for the last two lines of the bridge)
[ch]Ab[/ch]    [ch]Bb[/ch]       [ch]C[/ch]  [ch]Csus4[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
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]
And I like to brush my teeth every day
    [ch]G[/ch]  [ch]C/G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch](2)
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
