The Roches - Gung Ho

      [Intro]
G

[Verse]
G
Gung Ho, is a word I know
      C                 G
Means things are just beginning

Birth of a child, the wildness of youth
        D7
And the turf in the first inning

[Verse]
G
Coffee in the morning or Chinese herb tea
    C                       G
The former is the one works best for me

You cant be Gung Ho if you're hung over
       D7
Broken hearted, beaten down, eating crow
                G
Mr. Brown, Gung Ho

[Verse]
G
Gung Ho is a tale that's told
        C                    G
With a 'See ya later' to the fold

Got my guitar, the farther I go
      D7
And I do mean to be bold

[Verse]
G
Playing in the subway or a frat party
C
I ain't gonna be nobody's secretary
    G
You cant be Gung Ho if you're hung over
       D7
Broken hearted, beaten down, eating crow
                G
Mr. Brown, gung ho

[Chorus]
     C7
Gung Ho, I'm just a-riding high
     G
Gung Ho, I'm not your ordinary guy
     C7
Gung Ho, just don't ask me why
    D7
I'm doing anything that I'm doing, doing, doing
     G
Gung Ho, Gung Ho

[Verse]
G
Gung Ho is the thing I got
         C               G
When the girl she got me going

Birth of a child, the wildness of youth
        D7
But the bankbook isn't showing

[Verse]
G
How am I gonna get to where I'm 'sposed to be
  C
A little common sense would be a good thing for me
    G
You cant be Gung Ho if you're hung over
        D7
Broken hearted, beaten down, eating crow
                G
Mr. Brown, Gung Ho

[Chorus]
     C7
Gung Ho, I'm just a riding high
     G
Gung Ho, I had me a pie in the sky
     C7
Gung Ho, now I'm not sure if I am
    D7
I'm doing anything that I'm doing, doing, doing
     G           A
Gung Ho, Gung Ho__

[Verse]
A
Gung Ho is the way I was
     D                  A
When things were just beginning

Birth of a child, the wildness of youth
        E7
And the very thought of winning

[Verse]
A
Everybody said that I would be okay
    D
Not one of them standing to this day
    A
You cant be Gung Ho if you're hung over
       E7
Broken hearted, beaten down, eating crow
                A
Mr. Brown, Gung Ho
       E7
Broken hearted, beaten down, eating crow
                A
Mr. Brown, Gung Ho
       E7
Broken hearted, beaten down, eating crow
                A
Mr. Brown, Gung Ho
