Genernic Up-tempo Folk Song

 G                   Em                            C                                   D   
This is our up-tempo folk song, the one we use to start the show 
G          Em                            C                                           D   
Our up-tempo folk song, the kind every folksinger ought to know 
        Em                        G                          C                                      D 
The kind that sets your toe to tapping and makes you want to sing along 
        G                                Em                   C                D               G 
The one we stole from the Kingston Trio, a generic up-tempo folk song 

G                                         Em                           C                           D   
This is the middle of our up-tempo folk song; it’s called the second verse 
G                           Em                         C                                   D   
You gotta  sing it warm and tender, to make it sound different from the first 
Em                                  G                  C                              D  
This is where we look at all the people just to see who is around 
G                             Em                               C         D                     G  
And if you sing the second verse softly, the crowd usually quiets down 

Em                                   D                     Em                   D                                   
This is the bridge and its really exciting;  It has a different blend 
Em                                                  D                      Em                              D                                   
The purpose of the bridge is to get from the middle to the beginning of the end  

      G              Em                    C                            D   
Of this our up-tempo folksong, the end is drawing near 
 G                                   Em                                   C                                   D   
And by now you are so gosh darn excited, that you want to stand up and cheer 
        Em                      G                  C                                D 
And say hurray for the folk survivors may they sing forever strong  
         G                        Em                 C               D                  G 
And for the land of the brave and free generic up-tempo folk song   
(Instrumental) 
        Em                       G                   C                               D 
And say hurray for the folk survivors may they sing forever strong  
                 G                         Em                       C               D              G           C                D                  G 
May they shed a tear, each time they  hear a generic up-tempo folk song,  a generic up-tempo folk song
