Move that leg up&down on the wah-wah pedal!     

Bb5 and C5 chords are not recorded on the CD (because of the trumpet),
but they're used at concerts.

        Bridge          |
E|------|E|------|E|------|E|------||


"...He piled them high
    Into a ten turtle stack
    I'm Yertle the turtle The things I now rule
    I'm king of a cow I'm king of a mule
              (Look at that turtle go,bro!)..."

Here comes the bridge.

G5 Bb5 C5                               *************
G5 Bb5                                  *G5 : 355xxx*           
G5 Bb5 C5                               *Bb5: x133xx*
G5 Bb5                                  *C5 : x355xx*
C5 Bb5                                  *C#5: x466xx*
G5 Bb5 C5 D5                            *D5 : x577xx*
G5 C#5 C5                               *************

And then some G5 B5 C5.
