(G)I was in the army but I (C)never dug a (G)trench 
(C)I used to bust my (G)knuckles on a (D)monkey wrench 
Then I'd (G)go to town and drink and (C)give the girls a pinch 
But I (G)don't think they (D)ever even (G)noticed me 

Repeat Chorus: 

(D)Fish and whistle 
Whistle and fish 
(G)Eat every thing that they put on your dish 
And (C)when we get through we'll (G)make a big wish 
That we (A7)never have to do this D7)again 
Again? 
Again??? 

(G)On my very first job I said (C)"thank you" and (G)"please"
