Capo on 3rd fret
	        rd fet for Oval Room album/ (Thanks to Pat for figuring a lot of this one out) 
 to play along with the video that is on Youtube. 

There are only two chords, but the fingerpicking is trickey and his Am uses pull-offs and hammer-ons to Am7, etc. 



Am           Am7       Am           Am7 
In his oval room, in his rockin' chair 

           E7                    Am (there's an Asus2 in there as well) 
He's the president, but I don't care 
He's a business man, he got business ties 
He got dollar signs in both his eyes 
Got a big airplane, take him everywhere 
Got his limousine, when he get there 
Everywhere he goes, make the people mad  
Makes the poor man beg, and the rich man glad 


Am7            Am     Am7 	 Am 
He's the president, but I don't care 

      E 
Ooh, Ooooooh, Ooh 

At the factory, never been so slow 
Got a big fourth down, ninety nine to go 
And down on the farm, nothing growing there 
But the debts they owe and their gray hair 
In the desert sand, and the jungle deep 
He thinks everything is his to keep 
He's a real cowboy, with his makeup on 
Talks to kings and queens on the telephone 

He's the president, but I don't care 
Ooh, Oooooh, Ooh 

He's a movie star, if you stay up late 
And he'll search your car, if you don't look straight 
In his Oval Room, in his rockin' chair 
He's the president, but I don't care 

He's the president, but I don't care 
Ooh, Oooooh, Ooh 

He's the president, but I don't care 
Ooh, Oooooh, Ooh
