Don't Give Us a Reason

A                D
 Hey old Saddam, you figured wrong
         A                      
When you thought the whole world 
            E
would back down,
            A                   
And let you take all the oil and 
        D
rape Kuwait and plunder and spoil.
    A             E
Let sleeping dogs lie,
                A
Don't give us a reason.


       A                     D
'Cause people in the USA are not 
really afraid,
        A                          
Of your starving army and all your 
         E
wore out tanks.
           A                       
And if you take some innocent 
                      D
lives, that's when the fur's gonna 
really fly,
              A           E
Hey man, back off and get smart,
                A
Don't give us a reason.



                D             
Don't give us a reason to come 
             A
gunnin' for you,

'Cause the odds don't look so good,
         B7           E
And your neck is in a noose.

'Cause the Eagle and the Bear make 
  D
a mighty strong pair,
    F#m
And my advice is:
E                A
 Don't give us a reason.



             A                 D
When all our people over there know 
that we all care,
             A                     
Now that's a situation old Saddam, 
                   E
you don't wanna be in...
          A
'Cause if you do something stupid,
            D
We're gonna come down hard on ol' 
Cupid (??)
           A                      
You better think this one all the 
E
way out,
      A
Don't give us a reason.



                D             
Don't give us a reason to come 
             A
gunnin' for you,

'Cause the odds don't look so good,
         B7           E
And your neck is in a noose.
          A                    
Yeah, you picked on your little 
               D
neighbour, so do yourself a favour:
    F#m        E
Get out and go home,
                    A
And don't give us a reason.


A                                 
 Yeah, we've heard all your 
                    D
threats, and you're gonna threat 
yourself to death.
A             E             
 My advice is, don't give us a 
   A
reason.
You can take that poison gas, and 
D
stick it in your sassafras,
A         E                A
 Ha ha ha, don't give us a reason.
I'd like to find out just for fun, 
     D
just how fast those camels can run,
  A           E      A
I tell ya son, don't give us a 
reason.
'Cause the desert ain't Vietnam, and
             D
 there ain't nowhere to run,
                A
And we got some REAL top guns,
E                A
 Don't give us a reason.
