Chords: Dm7, Am7, Abm, G, F#, Bsus4/E Dm7 Am7 They call him Chippy: Abm Gm Reminds me of Mr. Whippy. Dm7 Am7 It's so trippy, Abm Gm When he gets snippy G F# That this lazy hippie Bsus4/E Thinks he'll beat the Nats. Dm7 Am7 He says bread and butter, Abm Gm But some of us still mutter G F# If he'll beam and stutter Bsus4/E 'Stead of fixing up the land. Dm7 Am7 Wouldn't it be grand Abm Gm If he'd take a stand G And tax rich folk's land, F# Bsus4/E While giving poor ones a hand? Dm7 Am7 They call him Chippy, Abm G And this trippy hippie F#5 E Thinks he could be grand. Amanda Riddell February 2023
