CAPO: 1st Fret
INTRO: Am
TV's on, the [G]favourite son is [C]watching how the [Dsus2]West was won
Daddy, please, a [Am]plastic gun, get brother [G]one for twice the [Dsus2]fun
[Am]Little camo [G]helmet heads, [F]making brave and [C]playing dead
And missiles made of [G]gingerbread, dollars on the [Dsus2]dime
CHORUS:
[Am]Hey ho, [C]so it goes, the [G]point of sale, the [Am]puppet show
The [C]merchant kings of [G]war and woe, have turned their hands to [Dsus2]labour
[Am]Sound out the [C]trumpet noise, the [G]cannons bark and [Am]jump for joy
[C]Someone's dread and [G]darling boy, has fallen on his [Am]sabre
[Am]Another world a[G]cross the sea, [C]home for little [Dsus2]busy bees
Sweating in some [Am]factory, hurry [G]please, more of [Dsus2]these
[Am]Action dolls with [G]laser sights, [F]robot planes that [C]shoot at night
Faster kid, and [G]get it right, they're rolling down the [Dsus2]line
CHORUS
[Am]Hey ho, [C]so it goes, the [G]point of sale, the [Am]puppet show

[C]Someone's dread and [G]darling boy, has fallen on his [Am]sabre
INSTRUMENTAL: C G Am C G Dsus2 Am C G Am C G Am
[Am]These days the [G]spin machine is [C]always on the [Dsus2]silver screen
Secret plots and [Am]submarines, foreign [G]fiends and maga[Dsus2]zines
[Am]Wave the flag and [G]watch the news and [F]tell us we can [C]count on you
'Cause Mom and Dad are [G]marching too, children, step in [Dsus2]time
CHORUS
[Am]Hey ho, [C]so it goes, the [G]point of sale, the [Am]puppet show

[Am]Sound out the [C]trumpet noise, the [G]cannons bark and [Am]jump for joy
[C]Someone's dread and [G]darling boy, has fallen on his [Am]sabre
So [Am]bring your kids and [G]coddled pets, [C]bouncing babes in [Dsus2]bassinets
We'll play a game with [Am]tanks and jets, better [G]yet, bayo[Dsus2]nets
[Am]Marching bands and [G]colour-guards, [F]funerals in your [C]own back yard
Don't forget your [G]credit card, Johnny, hold the [Dsus2]line____
