Verse 1:
E
Here they come again
  A         E
Hop scotching up to my door
E
One by one again
        A        E
Knockety knock knocking upon my floor


Verse 2:
E
Swinging on my gate
     A         E
They gain entry by the yard
E
Pulling at my hair they scream
      A         E
Paint your thoughts upon my card


Pre-Chorus:
B            E         BE
But not tonight I've got studies to examine
B        E            BE
Tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men
B          E          B
A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam
B
Who now takes up all my time he gives me things to do
B
'cause he's a wonderful man


Chorus:
E
But I'm sailing across the sea
  A        E
To see my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
  A        E
To be with my Uncle Sam
  A        E
To be with my Uncle Sam


Verse 4:
E
Silly little sniggers from the women liberators
     A           E
But I'll stand and hold my post
E
Polished buttons and erect I'll raise the flag
        A          E
I'll show those women who's the most


Pre-Chorus:
B            E         B
But not tonight I've got studies to examine
B        E            B
Tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men
B          E          B
A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam
B
Who now takes up all my time he gives me things to do
B
'cause he's a wonderful man

To be with my Uncle Sam

Sailing across the sea
  A        E
To see my Uncle Sam
