Title : Oliver’s Army (Cover Costello Elvis)
Album : That Should Cover It
Band : [Spunge]
Tabber : m45-Hyperon
This is my first tab so…it is not very good i know, maybe you’ll get confusing reading it………..
Anyway i think the tab is quite accurate, about 95%…..
This song is quite good actually but i can’t find any tabs for it, so i tabbed it.
It isnt hard but fun to play, i find this song quite interesting.
Oh an easy song for beginners too~
Enough BS lets move on. =)

There was a checkpoint Charlie, he didn’t crack a smile.
But it’s no laughing party when you’ve been on the murder mile.
Only takes one itchy trigger, one more widow one less white nigger.

We could be in Palestine, overrun by the Chinese line
with the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne.

But there’s no danger. It’s a professional career,
though it could be arranged with just a word in Mr. Churchill’s ear.
If you’re out of luck you’re out of work.
We could send you to Johannesburg.
