Start Jamming...
[A]
Hey, old Saddam, [D] you figured wrong [A] when you thought the whole world would [E] back down.
Unless [A] you take all the oil and rape [D] Kuwait and plunder and spoil, [A] let sleeping doves [E] lie, don't give [A] us a reason.
Because people in the USA [D] are not really afraid of [A] your starving army and all your wore [E]-out tanks.
And [A] if you take some innocent lives, that's when the [D] fur is going to really fly.
Hey [A] man, back off and get [E] to work, don't give [A] us a reason.
Don't give [D] us a reason to come [A] gunning for you.
Because the odds don't look so good [B] and your neck is [E] in a noose.
[A] Because the eagle and the bear [D] make a mighty strong pair.
[F#m] And my advice [E] is, don't give [A] them a reason.
And all our people over there [D] know that we all care.
Now [A] that's a situation, old Saddam, you don't [E] want to be in.
[A] Because if you do something stupid, [D] we're going to come down hard, old Cupid.
[A] You better think this one [E] all the way out, [A] don't give us a reason.
Don't give [D] us a reason to come [A] gunning for you.
Because the odds don't look so good [B] and your neck is [E] in a noose.
[A] Yeah, you picked on your little neighbor, [D] so do yourself a favor.
[F#m] Get out and go [E] home and don't give [A] us a reason.
Yeah, we've heard all your threats, [D] you're going to threat yourself to death.
[A] My [E] advice is, don't give [A] us a reason.
You can take that poison gas [D] and stick it in your sassafras.
[A] [E] Don't give [A] us a reason.
Yeah, I'd like to find out just for [D] fun just how fast those camels can [A] run, I tell you [E] son.
Don't [A] give us a reason.
No, the desert ain't Vietnam and there [D] ain't nowhere to run and we got [A] some real top [E] guns.
Don't give [A] us a reason.
