Draft Dodger Rag chords

Draft Dodger Rag

• G

A simply chorded song, but played distinctly by Phil Ochs. The same chord pattern is
throughout the entire song. The recording is capoed on the 3rd fret. I'm giving you the
position chords here, and you can add the capo, play the same shapes and it'll sound 
like the record. (use barr chords to get accurate sound)*Note* The recording slides up
G and A7, and then slides down in the D (C) G with the (C)(capoed note) actually being 
single picked string before returning to G. If you listen to the recording you'll hear 
I'm talking about.

  C                                                 D   (C)G
I believe in God and Senator Dodd and a-keepin' old Castro down
                                         A7
And when it came my time to serve I knew "better dead than red"
    C                                                D   (C)G
But when I got to my old draft board, buddy, this is what I said:
