[Eb] me [Bbm] and that is [Fm] as you look around around [Gm] the world you go [Gb] to Soviet [Fm] Union or [Bb] Great
Britain [Fm] or France you name any country.
[Bb] Everybody [Bb] is [Fm] doing [Ebm] flips and twists just to get into
a genuine [Eb] pair of [F] American blue [Abm] jeans [Bb] [Fm] and to hear this [Bb] music and we [C] got it all [Eb] here
