F#                        A#
Whoa, Mama Nantucket, she tried to kick the habit
         B           C#       F#
But she couldn't and she got stung
F#
I tried to relieve her
        A#
But she wasn't a believer
B               C#      F#
Until she found another one
 
[CHORUS]
D#                            G#      C#          F#
Da-do-da-li-da-lo-da-la-hee I love it here on the range
A#                          B       C#          F#

Oh, Bobby with a dollar, he was sure he found the answer
       B            C#     F#
But it might take a little time
F#
Playing follow the leader
       A#
He was sure would be a winner
      B         C#           F#
But I had other things on my mind

Everybody's singing a different tune
B                 C#
See them all fall down

Well I don't like to quarrel but what about tomorrow
        B      C#          F#
Will it be the same as the past
                       A#

quick tip, don't use F#/Gb in the lowest position. i recommend using C shape with root on 9th fret A string (F#). Bb/A# E shape at 6th fret. B should be E shape at 7th fret. makes the song much easier and the intro is basically just playing top 3 strings of each chord when you do it that way
