[Dixielandjazz] Over There

[Hal Vickery]

I don't have the chords sheet but here are the lyrics:
Verse
Johnnie get your gun, get your gun, get your gun,
Take it on the run, on the run, on the run,
Hear them calling you and me,
Ev'ry son of liberty.
Hurry right away, no delay, go today,
Make your daddy glad to have had such a lad,
Tell your sweetheart not to pine,
To be proud her boy's in line.

Chorus
Over there over there
Send the word, send the word over there
That the Yanks are coming, the Yanks are coming,
The drums rum-tumming ev'rywhere
So prepare say a pray'r
Send the word, send the word to beware
We'll be over, we're coming over,
And we won't come back till it's over over there!

Verse
Johnnie get your gun, get your gun, get your gun,
Johnnie show the Hun you're a son of a gun,
Hoist the flag and let her fly,
Yankee Doodle do or die.
Pack your little kit, show your grit, do your bit,
Yankees to the ranks from the towns and the tanks,
Make your mother proud of you
And the old Red White and Blue.

   Anybody here have a lyrics and chord cheat
sheet for Over There by George M. Cohan? A friend
of ours is having her 90th birthday this summer
and we're trying to get together a set of tunes,
one from each decade of her life, to play for
her. Over There was a hit in 1917, the year she
was born. 
   Could also use a cheat sheet for Saint Louis
Blues from 1926 ...
   Thanks in advance!
