Glenn Barber - Atom Bomb chords
Start Jamming...
[N] [G]
They're building an atom bomb, [A] gonna blow me [G] out of this place.
They're building a bigger bomb, what a crazy human race.
Let them kill us all and we'll stand and watch, well [Gm] brother that ain't for [G] me.
[Gm] I'll be running and a jumping and a skipping and a bumping when they blow me to smithereens.
[G] The man that's [B] scared of things, least [G] things I knows about.
But when my tater patch left the [A] ground, I started right then [D] getting out.
[G] I figured it was [Bb] time for all good men [E] to rise up and [G] really shine.
And I'll bet you anybody that saw me leave gonna say I sure did fine.
They're building an atom [C] bomb, gonna really cook [G] our goose.
They're building a bigger bomb, [Bm] gonna turn the [B] little loose.
[Gm] I'll never get out of this world alive, but brother I can flame short try.
[Bb] I'll be running and a jumping [Gm] and a skipping and a bumping when the first big [G] smoke goes by.
Now fellas I fought in World [B] War I and that [G] was quite a brawl.
And old number two that was really bad, cause that we all [A] recall.
I'm a [G] wishing far away to the moon [Bb] and soon [G] for this next thing starts.
I wanna get up there all in [D] one piece and not just [G] part by part.
They're building an atom bomb, blow me out of this place.
They're building a bigger bomb, [A] what a crazy human race.
[G] Let them kill us all and we'll stand and watch, well brother that ain't for [Gm] me.
I'll be running and a [G] jumping and a skipping and a bumping when they blow me to smithereens.
[Gm]
[G]
Now the place for me is [Eb] up in them hills in a cave way [G] back in the rocks.
When that thing goes off I'll get the jar, but none of the real bad shots.
With a trusty gun and a can of beans and an [C] old hound dog or two.
If [G] there's anybody left it's gonna be me when all of this mess is through.
They're building an atom bomb, gonna really cook our goose.
They're building a bigger bomb, gonna [A] turn the little loose.
I'll never get out of this world alive, but brother I [Gm] can flame short try.
I'll be running and a jumping and a skipping and a bumping when the first big smoke goes [G] by.
Now you think I'm lying but it ain't no joke cause I used to live real close.
A flash of light made a day of a [A] night, now they scared me out of my clothes.
[G] My old hound dog went raving [Cm] mad, was deaf for a [G] week or two.
When we quit running he was perecting her dad, but we figured that's a thing to do.
They're building an atom bomb, gonna blow me out of this place.
They're building a bigger bomb, [A] what a crazy [Am] human race.
Let them kill us all and we'll stand and watch, well [G] brother that ain't for me.
I'll be running and a jumping and a skipping and a [Bb] bumping when they blow me [G] to smithereens.
Yeah!
No!
Did you ever hear such a [Gm] noise?
Yeah.
