  (I'll warn you, the piano solo and outro are kind 
  of confusing, and the chords near the end are just
  approximations, but they give the idea.  Think
  gospel music when you play the solos!)

  [A][G] [D/F#] [Em][D][D/E][D/F] [D/F#] [D/G] [D/G#]

  He's drunk, watching the television.
  
  PRE-CHORUS
                      [Em7]         [A13]           
  You know he's been around the world.  
      [Em7]             [A13]           [DM7]  D6  [DM7]  
  Last night he flew to Baghdad in his magical armchair.
  [D6]                    [Em7]   [A13]     [Em7]         [A13]
     With cigarettes and a six pack,  yeah     he just got   back.
     [G]                [D]     /[E] /[F] /[F#] /[G] /[G#]
  His spit's flying everywhere.

  VERSE 2
  Your Uncle Walter saw who fired the shots, 
  He drove his chair in the cavalcade.
  He's flown from South Africa to countries where 
  they beat themselves on the backs with chains.
  
  PRE-CHORUS
  There was a fleet of battleships, 
  And one reclining chair headed north on the Arabian sea.  
  Now he's back to tell us what he and his oldest boy Blair.  
  They're gettin' rich with their mail order scheme.
  
  CHORUS
  Your Uncle Walter's going on and on.
  Where did you go that you were gone so long?
  How could you leave me here so long with Uncle Walter?
  
  BRIDGE
  [Am]                                                       
     Your Uncle Walter told me 
                              [GM7]
  everything he'd do if he was president.
           [F#]     F#7sus4/C#     [F#7]                  
  No, what a perfect world      this world would be,     
  [Em]         [G]
     If he was president now.  But he's not!

  PRE-CHORUS
  And he sees the children smoking pot.  
  He knows that in a moment they'll be shooting up heroin.  
  Teardrops in his armchair, a fifty minute lecture,
  Tobacco juice rolling down his chin, hey, hey, hey, hey.
  
  CHORUS
  Your Uncle Walter's going on and on.
  Where did you go that you were gone so long?
  How could you leave me here so long with Uncle Walter?
