Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I'm  wearin', Fur pajamas
I  ride a, Hot potato
It's  ticklin', my  fancy
Speak  up, I can't  hear you
Here  on this mountaintop
Oh  oh oh
 I got some wild,  wild  life
I  got some news to tell you
Oh  oh
 About some wild,  wild  life
Here  comes the doctor in charge
Oh  oh oh
 She's got some wild,  wild  life
Ain't  that the way you like it?
Oh  oh
 Living wild,  wild  life
I  wrestle with your conscience
You  wrestle with your partner
Sittin'  on a window  sill,
But  he spends his time behind  closed doors
Check  out Mr. Businessman
Oh  oh oh
 He bought some wild,  wild  life
On  the way to the stock exchange
Oh  oh oh
 He got some wild,  wild  life
Break  it up when he opens the door
Oh  oh oh
 He doin' wild,  wild  life
I  know that's the way you like it
Oh  oh
 Living wild,  wild
Peace  of mind
It's  a piece of cake
Thought  control
You  get on board anytime  you like
 Interlude/ Guitar Solo (Played in E)
Like  sitting on, pins  and needles
Things  fall apart, it's  scientific
Sleeping  on the interstate
Oh  oh oh
 Gettin' wild,  wild  life
Checkin'  in, a checkin' out
Oh  oh oh
 I got a wild,  wild  life
Spendin'  all of my money and time
Oh  oh oh
 Done too much wild,  wild  life
We  wanna go, where we go, where we go
Oh  oh oh
 I doin' wild,  wild  life
I  know it, that's how we start
Oh  oh
 Got some wild,  wild  life
Take  a picture, here in the daylight
Oh,  oh
 And it's some wild,  wild  life
You've  grown so tall, you've grown so fast
Oh  oh oh
Wild,  wild  life
I  know that's the way you like it
Oh,  oh
 Living wild  wild, wild  wild wild life
