[Intro]
Am


[Chorus]
     C                         G                           C
That famous day in history the men of the 7th Cavalry went riding on
C
And from the rear, a voice was heard
  G                                          C
A brave young man with a trembling word rang loud and clear
           E
What the...am I doin' here?


[Verse 1]
Am                 Dm             Am
Please, Mr. Custer, I don't wanna go
                Dm                    Am
Hey, Mr. Custer, please don't make me go
                 Dm
Let me tell you, I had a dream last night
Am
About the comin' fight
Dm
Somebody yelled "attack, attack"
    Am                    E7
And there I stood with an arrow in my back
Am                 Dm             Am
Please, Mr. Custer, I don't wanna go
Am
(Forward ho)
Am
No, no, no, no


[Verse 2]
Dm                            Am
 Look at them bushes out there
Am
They're moving
Am
I bet there's an Injun behind every one of 'em
               Dm
Hey, Mr. Custer
                   Am
You mind if, uh, I be excused for the rest of the afternoon?
Am
Hey, Charlie, duck your head
Dm                                    Am
No, you're a little late on that one, Charlie
Am
Whoo, I bet that smarts


[Chorus]
C                              G                          C
They were sure of victory, the men of the 7th Cavalry, as they rode on
C
Ah, sing it out, troops
C
Again from the rear, a voice was heard
     G                                           C
That same brave voice with a trembling word rang loud and clear
          E7
What am I doin' here?


[Verse 3]
Am                 Dm             Am
Please, Mr. Custer, I don't wanna go
                    Dm              Am
Listen, Mr. Custer, please, please, please don't make me go
          Dm
There's a redskin a-waitin' out there
Am
Fixin' to take my hair
Dm
A coward I've been called
       Am                      E7
'Cause I don't want to wind up dead or bald, no
Am                 Dm       Am
Please, Mr. Custer, I don't want to go
Am
(Forward ho)
Am
No, no, no


[Outro]
Dm                                      Am
I wonder what the Injun word for friend is
Am
Let's see, friend
Am
Kemo sabe, that's it, kemo sabe
           Dm                      Am
Kemo sabe! Hey out there, kemo sabe!
Am
No, that ain't it
                    Dm
Look at 'em out there
                               Am
Runnin' around like a bunch of wild Indians
                              Dm
This ain't no time for jokin'
