Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

D MajorD        D7D7        C majorC
I heard from a friend you'd been messing around

    G+G      D MajorD       D7D7
With a cute little thing I'd been dating uptown

              C majorC
Well I don't know if I like that idea much

G+G                 D MajorD       D7D7
Well you'd better stay clear I might start acting rough

  C majorC         G+G
You out of town guys sure think you're real keen

   A7A7        D MajorD
Think all of us boys are homespun and green

      C majorC    G/BG/B    D/AD/A G+G
But that's wrong my friend so get this through your head

G+G                D MajorD   D7D7    G+G
We're tough and we're Texan with necks good and red

Chorus:

G+G D/AD/A E minorEm      D MajorD
So it's Ki yi yippie yi yi

     C majorC
You long hairs are sure gonna die

       A7A7           D7D7 D MajorD
Our American home was clean till you came

DsusDsus C majorC   D MajorD           G+G   C majorC G+G
And kids still respected the president's name

 G+G   E minorEm
And the eagle still flew in the sky

D MajorD         C majorC
Hearts filled with national pride

E minorEm      A7A7       D MajorD
Then you came along with your drug-crazy songs

  C majorC    D MajorD    E minorEm
Goddamit you're all going to die

  C majorC    D MajorD    E minorEm
Goddamit you're all going to die

Verse 2:

D MajorD      D7D7      C majorC
How dare you sit there and drink all our beer

    G+G           D MajorD        D7D7
Oh it's made for us workers who sweat spit and swear

D7D7                C majorC
The minds of our daughters are poisoned by you

     G+G               D MajorD   D7D7
With your communistic politics and them negro blues

     C majorC             G+G
Well I'm going to quit talking and take action now

  A7A7            D MajorD
Run all of you fairies clean out of this town

    C majorC      G/BG/B D/AD/A  G+G
Oh I'm dog tired of watching you mess up our lives

G+G            D MajorD     G+G
Spending the summertime naturally high

Chorus:

G+G D/AD/A E minorEm      D MajorD
So it's Ki yi yippie yi yi

     C majorC
You long hairs are sure gonna die

       A7A7           D7D7 D MajorD
Our American home was clean till you came

DsusDsus C majorC   D MajorD           G+G   C majorC G+G
And kids still respected the president's name

 G+G   E minorEm
And the eagle still flew in the sky

D MajorD         C majorC
Hearts filled with national pride

E minorEm      A7A7       D MajorD
Then you came along with your drug-crazy songs

  C majorC    D MajorD    E minorEm
Goddamit you're all going to die

  C majorC    D MajorD    E minorEm
Goddamit you're all going to die
