Verse 1
Status Quo - In The Army Now
This is a great song, it reminds me of my childhood days. It was in '89 I
first listened to it.
For the INTRO and BREAK use the normal chord but hold D in 5th fret, A too
in the 5th fret and C on 3rd fret,
I think you'll know what I mean, but into the song part hold the chord as
given below:
[Dm] [G] [Am] [Bm]
[Em]
In The Army Now
(Bolland/Bolland)

Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
