Verse 1
Well, they [Em]call me [C]Bones and I'm[G] third in co[Em]mmand
[C]Second in line is a man [C]I j[B]ust [A]can'[G]t stand
He's a[Em] green blooded, [C]pointy-eared,[G] seven year[Em] itch
[C]And when he pon farrs He'll try to [C]make [B]me h[A]is bi[G]tch
Chorus:
[D]Well, I may or may not have[C] divorced my w[G]ife
But I damn sure pulled the plug on my daddy's life
And two months later, well, they found a cure
I'm just an[Em] old country[C] doctor on a d[D]amned five year[G] tour
(harmonica lead in)
[Em] [C] [D] [G]
Verse 2: (same chord pattern as verse 1)
The damned teleporter
Yeah, it gives me the creeps
The first time I used it
I couldn't get it up for weeks
Now my tricorder's busted
And sick bay just stinks
I guess I'll just go replicate me a drink
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3
Well, Jim is the captain of this here ship
We call her the Enterprise, and the crew's pretty hip
Yeah, the girls all wear go-go boots and miniskirts
And I spend my days patching all the red shirts
(electric guitar in)
[D]Well, I have been asked to d[C]o many a t[G]hing
Outside the area of my expertise
Damn it Jim, I know I've told you before
Damn it Jim, I know I've told you before
Damn it Jim, damn it Jim, I told you before
I'm just an[Em] old countr[C]y doctor on a [D]damned five year[G] tour
Just an old country doctor on a damned five year tour
(harmonica lead out)
