(Intro)

F F C Am Dm G C G

(Verse 1)

C                 F                 Dm
Sit down my sons, I’ve something to say 
G                                   C
What my father told me on his dying day
C                         F          Dm
And now to my own sons, I pass this along
       G                                 C    F C G
For my time is at hand, and soon I’ll be gone
C                              F                Dm
I’ve tried to teach you what’s right and what’s wrong
   G                                   C
Be upright, be honest, be brave and be strong
   C                       F                   Dm              
Be kind and be true to the good friends you’ve made
          G                         C      C7
And never turn down a chance to get laid!

CHORUS 1:

       F
Do the Young ones, the old ones, 
    C
The hot ones, the cold ones
    G                    C
The scags, the hags, the free and the paid
       F
Do the rich ones the poor ones 
    C            Am
The drunk on the floor ones
           Dm                     G
If they’re ugly son pull down the shade
          F           G             C
And never turn down a chance to get laid!

F F C Am Dm G C C G F C G


(Verse 2)
   C                      F        Dm
Oh boys now I lay here my body all broke
  G                                         C
I pray you’ll be heedin’ these last words I spoke
   C                 F           Dm
As I meet my maker I clearly now see
    G                                        C   C7
Why all of your mothers are so pissed off at me


CHORUS 2:
           F
So, do the big ones, the small ones
    C
The short ones, the tall ones
    G                          C
The street walking hooker, the cooker of pain
       F
Do the flat chested screamer 
        C            Am
The big breasted big beamers
      Dm                       G
Never mind if she’s fertile or spayed
          F           G             C      C7
And never turn down a chance to get laid!



CHORUS 3:

       F
Do the sleazy, the easy
    C
The smelly, the greasy
    G                       C
The smutty, the slutty, the chubby ones too
       F
Do the classic two bagger 
        C           Am
The two legged tail wager
    Dm                           G       G!
And boys you’ll know when you’re through
            F!            G!                       C!
When you’ve found one you love who loves who loves you
              C7!
But until you do…

CHORUS 4:
       F
Do the black ones the white ones
    C
The loose ones the tight ones
    G                         C
The freaks do the geeks, the uniques and all the antiques
       F                        C          Am
Do the nasty and the mean, the obese the obscene
          Dm          G
But never turn down a chance…
       C        Am
Always go for romance
      Dm          G
Never turn down a chance…
       C          Am
Always go for the pants
          F           G             C    
And never turn down a chance to get laid!
