[Intro]
D A [Verse 1]
D When life is tough and very scary
G D My wife and I, we chomp a blueberry
D When hardship comes, well we don't tarry
G We rush to the fields and pick some
D blueberry
A7 When future days are hot and hairy
A7 When Christmas threatens to not be merry
A7 When weighted down with more'n we can carry
A7 We drop everything and eat a blueberry
Continues after the ad
[Verse 2]
D When the liquor cabinet's out of sherry
G And no-one can answer my eternal
D query
D And I can't reach my dear aunt Teri
G D I know I can savor a juicy blueberry
A7 When world leaders acts like Moe, Curly and Larry
A7 And even the Buddhists get leery and wary
A7 And there's too much falling to dodge and to parry
A7 Why not relax and try a blueberry? [Solo]
D G D
D G D [Verse 3]
A7 When the hatchet you threw in the hole won't stay buried (And the last bus left for Tucumcari)
A7 And the world feels like a mortuary (Everything's just too temporary)
A7 And everyone's creamer's gone non-dairy (The Devil's joined the seminary)
A7 When the rivers flood at Harpers Ferry (And the voices are silent in Tipperary)
A7 Wife asks "ready?" and you scream "very!"
A7 Wouldn't waste no time (Let's be smooth like Fred Astaire, he)
A7 I'll eat your blueberries and you eat mine
D We'll be fine!
