1.                         A vacation in a foreign land, 

    Uncle Sam does the best he can,
                   d         F   e                 a
    you're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now.

    Now you remember what the draftsman said,

    nothing to do all day but stay in bed,
                   d         F   e                 a             
    you're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now.

2.   You`ll be the hero of the neighbourhood,

    nobody knows, that you left for good,
                   d         F   e                 a
    you're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now.

    Smiling faces as you wait to land,

    but once you get there no one gives a damn,
                   d         F   e                 a
    you're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now.

3.                   Hand grenades flying over your head - -
a                       
    missiles flying over your head,

    if you want to survive get out of bed,
                   d         F   e                 a
    you're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now.



IN THE ARMY NOW, 2

a
    Shots ring out in the dead of night,
                          - - - - - - - - 
    the sergeant calls, "Stand up and fight!"
                   d         F   e                 a
    You're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now.

    a
4.     You've got your orders, better shoot on sight,

    your finger's on the trigger, but it don't seem right,
                   d         F   e                 a
    you're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now,
                   d         F   e                 a
    you're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now.

a-e-a-G     a
               Night is falling and you just can't see,

    is this illusion or reality,
                   d         F   e                 a
    you're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now.
                   d         F   e                 a
    You're in the army now, oh, oh, you're in the army now,
d      F   e                 a
      oh, oh, you're in the army now.....
