When playing on acoustic I like to throw in a EmMaj7 (021000) between the E and D occasionaly,
to get that feel of walking back down to D that the bass does.
 
  D          E
Go...        and I wanta make-a love to you
D                        E
   And I feel love, feel love, la love
D                 E
   Jailhouse gets empty
D            E
   Rudy gets plenty
D                       E
   The baton stick gets shorter
D            E
   Rudy gets taller
D                          E
   Can't fight against the youth
             D                          E
'Cause we're strong them are rude, rude people
D                          E
   Can't fight against the youth
             D                       E
'Cause we're strong 'em a rude, rude people, long, baby yea now
D                                      E
When I was a youth in 1983, it was the best day of my life
           D                                       E
Had the 89 vision, we didn't fuss or no fight, when all the little daughters wanna be my wife
        D                               E
"Like A Virgin", it was playin on my guitar, on my guitar
            D                                     E
I had to be there, I had to be there, I had to be there, I had to bee there
         D                  E
When the rhythm, playin', I know that I'm gonna be there, yeah
       D                                     E
Oh Bud Gaugh will be singing there, and Eric Wilson will be bangin' out there yea
  D                                 E
Oooh, and we'll be all singin' with version, with version
       D                 E
Reagge version, version, version, version ooooh

    D                                                  E
